摘要
Maize(Zea Mays L.) is one of the most important crops globally for food,feed and fuel. Aiming to efficiently design breeding schemes,the global molecular breeders are struggling to clarify the determinants underlying agriculturally important traits,almost inherited as the ′quantitative traits′,whose genetic basis are attributed to many modest-effect loci,epistasis and interaction with environments. To tradeoff between diversity and confounding influence,we here propose a maize synthetic population,tailor-made for genetics and breeding,with firstly thoroughly intercross between 24 maize elite inbred lines(centered by ′HZS′ pedigree but genetically diverse) and subsequently sufficiently inbreeding(single-seed decent for over six generations). Up to present,we have collected an unprecedently huge dataset in this maize synthetic population: 1) NGS-based genetic variants(50M SNP,2.8M In Del and 0.66 M SV); 2) multi-environmental phenotypes(from agronomic to yield related traits). The large-scale data for synthetic population endows the popular GWAS,single-marker based linear mixed model,sufficient power for identifying specific loci or known genes. However,frustratingly,only one-half or less heritability allow to be accounted for jointly by all identified loci for any a given trait,the genetic base of complex traits remains ambiguous,also named as ′missing heritability′. Here,we provide a probabilistic estimate of mosaic structure for any a progeny in synthetic population that presumed as a reshuffle across 24 parental genomes,using a combined method of the hidden markov model(HMM) and linkage disequilibrium(LD). We developed a novel statistical methodology,′haplotype-based GWAS′,that tested allelic effect attributed to each parent state rather than the substitute effect between states in each marker,with an assumption that multiple-and independent-causal variants jointly influence trait variations in a given inherited genomic region. The haplotype-based method provides opportunities to further dissect complex traits,and potentially settle the missed heritability that never solved before solely using traditional method.
