By using a mapping population derived from a cross between a salt-sensitive Korean cultivar and a salt-tolerant land-race, this study identified two novel major loci on chromosome 6 and 10 that control salt tolerance in soybean. These loci provide additional genetic resources for breeding soybean cultivars with enhanced salt tolerance.
Soybean, a glycophyte that is sensitive to salt stress, is greatly affected by salinity at all growth stages. A mapping population derived from a cross between a salt-sensitive Korean cultivar, Cheongja 3, and a salt-tolerant land-race, IT162669, was used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) conferring salt tolerance in soybean. Following treatment with 120 mM NaCl for 2 weeks, phenotypic traits representing physiological damage, leaf Na+ content, and K+/Na+ ratio were characterized. Among the QTLs mapped on a high-density genetic map harboring 2,630 single nucleotide polymorphism markers, we found two novel major loci, qST6, on chromosome 6, and qST10, on chromosome 10, which controlled traits related to ion toxicity and physiology in response to salinity, respec-tively. These loci were distinct from the previously known salt tolerance allele on chromosome 3. Other QTLs associated with abiotic stress overlapped with the genomic regions of qST6 and qST10, or with their paralogous regions. Based on the functional annotation and parental expression differences, we identified eight putative candidate genes, two in qST6 and six in qST10, which included a phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase and an ethylene response factor. This study provides additional genetic resources to breed soybean cultivars with enhanced salt tolerance.
