[Identification and mapping of polymorphic RAPD markers of pea (Pisum sativum L.) genome].

Various pea cultivars, lines, and mutants were studied by the RAPD method. Polymorphic fragments characteristic of certain pea genotypes and which can be used for identifying genotypes were detected. Inheritance of some polymorphic RAPD fragments was studied. Mendelian inheritance of these fragments was shown. By analyzing the data obtained in studies of RAPD polymorphism, genetic distances between different pea cultivars, lines, and mutants were calculated and a genealogic dendogram showing a varying extent of differences between RAPD patterns was constructed. Ten new RAPD markers linked to various pea genes were detected. Genetic distances between RAPD markers and genes to which they are linked were calculated, and the respective disposition of RAPD markers on chromosomes was established.

[Studying plant genome variation using molecular markers].

The authors' studies on the organization and variation of plant genome with the use of molecular markers are briefly reviewed with special emphasis on random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD), inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR), sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR), and cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence (CAPS) markers detected with the use of polymerase chain reaction (PCR). These markers have been demonstrated to be promising for identifying cultivars and determining the purity of genetic strains of pea. Genetic relationships between strains, cultivars, and mutants of pea have been studied. The role of molecular markers in molecular genetic mapping and localizing the genes of commercially important characters of pea has been shown. The possibility of the use of molecular markers for studying somaclonal variation and detecting mutagenic factors in plants during long-term spaceflights is considered. The prospects of using DNA markers for understanding the organization and variability of higher plant genomes are discussed.

[Identification and mapping of chi115 gene and DNA markers linked to it in pea (Pisum sativum L.)].

Chlorophyll mutant Chi115 was induced by ethylmethane sulfonate (EMS) treatment of seeds of genotype Torsdag in Moscow State University and is characterized by lighter plant color. The monogenic nature of the mutant was determined by analyzing the F2 population from a cross between two P. sativum genotypes, WL1238 and Chi115. To establish a local map around the chi115 gene, the RAPD and ISSR techniques were used with 45 RAPD and 10 ISSR primers in combination with bulked segregant analysis (BSA). Linkage of 12 RAPDs and 2 ISSRs to the chi115 locus was observed in analysis of F2 single plants. Two RAPD markers that were closely associated with the chi115 gene were converted into the sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) markers. By lowering the LOD score to 2, the linkage group containing the chi115 gene could be linked to the b gene (color of the flower) on linkage group III. Nevertheless, to prove the result obtained, three CAPS markers Sodmt, TubA1, and Rb were chosen on linkage group III. The results of linkage analysis showed that these CAPS markers were located within the linkage group including the chi115 gene.
