Two high-density genetic maps were constructed using whole-genome resequencing with two F-2 segregating populations and two loci for fruit size were identified on chromosome 11 in WAP and chromosome 5 in MAP. An auxin response factor and a YABBY transcription factor were inferred to be the candidate genes for both loci.
Background Melon is a very important horticultural crop produced worldwide with high phenotypic diversity. Fruit size is among the most important domestication and differentiation traits in melon. The molecular mechanisms of fruit size in melon are largely unknown. Results Two high-density genetic maps were constructed by whole-genome resequencing with two F-2 segregating populations (WAP and MAP) derived from two crosses (cultivated agrestis x wild agrestis and cultivated melo x cultivated agrestis). We obtained 1,871,671 and 1,976,589 high quality SNPs that show differences between parents in WAP and MAP. A total of 5138 and 5839 recombination events generated 954 bins in WAP and 1027 bins in MAP with the average size of 321.3 Kb and 301.4 Kb respectively. All bins were mapped onto 12 linkage groups in WAP and MAP. The total lengths of two linkage maps were 904.4 cM (WAP) and 874.5 cM (MAP), covering 86.6% and 87.4% of the melon genome. Two loci for fruit size were identified on chromosome 11 in WAP and chromosome 5 in MAP, respectively. An auxin response factor and a YABBY transcription factor were inferred to be the candidate genes for both loci. Conclusion The high-resolution genetic maps and QTLs analyses for fruit size described here will provide a better understanding the genetic basis of domestication and differentiation, and provide a valuable tool for map-based cloning and molecular marker assisted breeding.
