摘要
Genome-wide association study(GWAS) is a powerful tool for dissect complex agronomic traits in crops species. Rapeseed is one of the most economically important polypoid oil crops in the world. In this study,we re-sequenced 406 diverse rapeseed accessions to construct a haplotype map of the rapeseed genome. Using an Illumina Hi Seq 4000,a total of 55.6 billion paired-end reads of 150 bp in length were generated,with an average coverage depth of more than 10×for each accession. After mapping against the reference sequences of oilseed cultivar ′Darmor-bzh′,28,006,956 single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) were identified. Using these SNPs,genome-wide association studies were performed for mapping traits. We investigate 36 agronomic traits in four environments and examined the major loci of genes related to oil content,fatty acid biosynthesis,seed weight,plant height and primary branch. Many of the candidate genes for oil content encode enzymes involved in oil metabolism,including two significant associations on A8 and C3 of Brassica napus which were close to the key gene Bna. FAE1 for erucic acid content. Some other QTLs were also identified for plant architecture(plant height and primary branch). Our results provide insights into the genetic basis of oil biosynthesis in oilseed and may facilitate marker-based breeding for oil production and yield.
