WP1
Results achieved since the beginning of the project and plans for 2013
The general objective of WP1
… is to develop more efficient breeding programs applying MAB. To reach this goal WP1 will design and develop: • Selection strategies and schemes to be tested in
pilot studies • SNP markers tightly linked to selected genes will
be developed • Cost efficient MAB pipelines will be identified and
used to genotype the plant material of the pilot studies
State of progress of the ongoing tasks (in a nutshell)
• Task 1.1: Breeding strategies (AIM: understand how apple & peach a breed and develop better breeding strategies
– First deliverable of the WP (D1.1: description of ideotypes and breeding schemes) submitted at M18
– Applicability of GWS in apple and peach as been studied and found to be possible (see also experiments at PFR)
• Task 1.2: development/identification of SNP markers for genes mapped before the start of the project
– Apple: SNP makers identified for 12 out 18 loci
– Peach SNP makers identified for 7 out 12 loci
• Task 1.3: Pilot studies (AIM: demonstrate the power of MAS)
– Prepared list of PSP for both apple and peach, for peach final list in preparation
– GWS for apple planned (peach in consideration): populations identified, genotyping with 384 SNPs is sufficient; genotyping approach and company identified, financing is possible within partner own budget!
• Task 1.4: Genotyping pipeline (AIM: apply MAS using T.1.2 SNPs to PSP)
– In the process of finalizing MAB protocol (deadline M24!)
– In collaboration FEM (WP6) offers from genotyping companies have been collected and a company with a good offer has been identified
• Task 1.5: Specification list of breeder-interface (AIM: develop an breeder-friendly interface to query the DB)
– No much progresses have been made in this task. As deadline (M30!) is approaching activities have to start during this meeting and continue until September
(Main) results achieved so far
• Task 1.1: Breeding strategies – Thanks two stakeholder surveys we were able to figure out how apple
and peach are currently selected and which are the traits most important for apple and peach breeders • Apple results: see François talk of the stakeholder day 2012 • Peach results: see Thierry talk (in few minutes)
• Task 1.2: SNP markers – Apple (12/18); SNP makers identified for: Rvi2 (Vh2), Rvi4 (Vh4), Rvi5
(Vm), Rvi6 (Vf), Rvi11 (Vbj), Rvi13 (Vdurello), Rvi15 (Vr2), QTLs LG17 Fiesta and Discovery, FB-MR5, FB-E and Pl2 (nearly finish Rvi12 (Vb)) • Examples of the results and surprises: see Melanie Jänsch (talk in few
minutes)
– Peach (7/12); SNP markers identified for: Rm2, Vr2, D, S, G, Y and F

• 1 published scientific paper:
• Kumar et al. 2012: Genomic Selection for Fruit Quality Traits in Apple(Malus x domestica Borkh.). PLoSONE 7(5): e36674.
• But in 2013 (M28) we have D1.4 which is composed by the submitted manuscripts reporting the fine mapping and development of SNP markers for selected major genes and QTLs (output of T1.2)
Main challenges for 2013
ALL Deliverables and milestones to be done in the next 6 months (chronological order): • D1.4 (M28): submitted manuscripts on fine mapping of selected major
genes and QTLs (output of T1.2) • D1.2 (M30): Evaluation of breeding strategies used in other crops (GWS
included) (output of T1.1)
• MS4 (M24 not 28): markers tightly linked to the loci of interest (report) • MS5 (24) Optimized MAB protocol (report) • MS3 (M30): Evaluation of breeding strategies used in other crops
(review) • MS6 (M30): Specifications of breeder interface defined (report)

Rvi11
• Indication that Rvi2 and Rvi11 may derive from the same region
• Allelic? • Phenotype of the two genes is
similar (SC vs. SN) • Difference due to difference level
of enhancement of the resistance cascade?
(Bus et al., 2011)
Rvi4 vs. Rvi15
• Indication that Rvi4 and Rvi15 may derive from the same region
• Allelic? • Phenotype of the two genes is the
same (PPP) • Rvi4 symptoms visible after 3-4
days, Rvi15 after 7 days • Difference due to difference level of
enhancement of the resistance cascade?

Conclusion
• SNP markers for resistance genes most used in breeding will be soon available.
• This will simplify marker assisted selection (MAS) and will allow a reduction of its costs .
• The precise mapping of the genes increases the precision of MAS and indicates the possible allelism of: – Rvi2 and Rvi11
– Rvi4 and Rvi15
