Understanding the basis of complex quantitative traits of economic importance is a major tactic
behind the progress in plant breeding. During the past decade, association mapping, commonly
applied in human and animal genetics, has shown greater promise and power of mapping
complex quantitative traits in plants compared to traditional linkage mapping. Germplasm
diversity is the mainstay for crop improvement and genetic dissection of complex traits. A
collection of 200 IITA soybean (Glycine max) lines were analyzed by genotyping by sequencing
to identify SNP markers associated with nodulation traits. Understanding genetic diversity,
population structure, and the level and distribution of linkage disequilibrium in target
populations is of great importance and a prerequisite for association mapping. In this study, a
genome-wide association analysis was conducted to detect key single-nucleotide polymorphisms
(SNPs) associated with promiscuous nodulation in soybean. Genome-wide association mapping
using models controlling both population structure (Q) and relative kinship (K) were performed
to identify the marker loci/QTLs underlying the naturally occurring variations of nodulation in
an IITA soybean panel. These significant SNPs will help to better understand the genetic basis
of nodulation-related physiological traits, and facilitate the pyramiding of favorable alleles for
nitrogen fixation traits in soybean marker assisted selection schemes for high nodulation
efficiency. Efforts to identify novel variability in these genes may present opportunities to
improve soybean natural nodulation quality.

Why soybean were considered by IITA
• Little effort in improving soybean in Africa
• Yield was extremely low
• Low seed viability
• Poor nodulation with native Rhizobium
• High shattering in the moist and dry savanna
![Page 4: Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel · Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel Agrama H1, Belzile F2, Boahen S3, Dion P2, Tefera H1 and Sonah](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed8b59a6714ca7f47686d19/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Importance of soybean in Africa
• Soybean constitutes an important component of the smallholder cropping systems in Africa
– enhancing household food and nutrition security
– holds considerable potential for arresting soil fertility decline
– raising rural incomes and reducing poverty
![Page 5: Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel · Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel Agrama H1, Belzile F2, Boahen S3, Dion P2, Tefera H1 and Sonah](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed8b59a6714ca7f47686d19/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Why breeding for promiscuous nodulation?
• Breeding for promiscuous nodulating genotypes was one of the approaches IITA followed to enhance biological nitrogen fixation of tropical soybeans
• Soybeans that nodulate effectively with diverse indigenous rhizobia are considered as promiscuous, and the characteristic promiscuity (Kuneman et al., 1984).
• Hence, promiscuous genotypes of soybean form symbiotic association with available Rhizobium strains in the soil and hence fix atmospheric nitrogen whilst non-promiscuous genotypes need specific rhizobial strains to fix nitrogen from the air
![Page 6: Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel · Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel Agrama H1, Belzile F2, Boahen S3, Dion P2, Tefera H1 and Sonah](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed8b59a6714ca7f47686d19/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Generally
• Soybean varieties developed for promiscuous nodulation with the indigenous rhizobia
– were considered to increase production of soybean in tropical Africa
– with minimum cost affordable to small-scale farmers

Materials and Methods
• Germplasm diversity is the mainstay for crop improvement and genetic dissection of complex traits
• A collection of 280 IITA soybean (Glycine max L) lines and 15 released varieties were evaluated for nodulations
• Two locations Malawi and Mozambique in two seasons 2010 and 2011
• The accessions were analyzed by genotyping by sequencing to identify SNP markers associated with nodulation traits
![Page 8: Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel · Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel Agrama H1, Belzile F2, Boahen S3, Dion P2, Tefera H1 and Sonah](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed8b59a6714ca7f47686d19/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Nodulating Characterization
• The roots of each of 20 plants 45 days old were washed and carefully rinsed with water
• The nodules were harvested
– counted (NodNo), then oven dried at 65oC for 4 days
– weighed to determine the total Nodule dry weight mg (NoddryWt) per plant.

Association Mapping
Population-based genetic association study
A promising alternative approach turns
– from families to populations,
– and from linkage analysis to association studies
![Page 11: Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel · Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel Agrama H1, Belzile F2, Boahen S3, Dion P2, Tefera H1 and Sonah](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed8b59a6714ca7f47686d19/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Association Mapping can be conducted directly on the breeding material, therefore:
– Direct inference from data analysis to breeding is possible
– Relevant genetic background effects are sampled
– Phenotypic variation is observed for most traits of interest
– Marker polymorphism is higher than in biparental populations
– Routine variety trial evaluations provide phenotypic data over years and locations
Association Mapping
![Page 12: Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel · Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel Agrama H1, Belzile F2, Boahen S3, Dion P2, Tefera H1 and Sonah](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed8b59a6714ca7f47686d19/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The principle of association mapping
• Utilize ancestral recombination events in natural populations to make marker–phenotype associations
• Evaluate whether certain alleles within a population are found with specific phenotypes more frequently than expected

Genotyping
• One promising approach is genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) which uses enzyme-based complexity reduction (using restriction endonucleases to target only a small portion of the genome) coupled with DNA barcoded adapters to produce multiplex libraries of samples ready for NGS
Elshire et al., 2011; Poland & Rife 2102
![Page 17: Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel · Diversity and association mapping in an IITA soybean panel Agrama H1, Belzile F2, Boahen S3, Dion P2, Tefera H1 and Sonah](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042310/5ed8b59a6714ca7f47686d19/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Here we show that GBS can be applied directly to breeding programs and produce de novo molecular markers suitable for whole-genome association.
We applied GBS to the set of advanced soybean breeding lines from the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA).

Analysis
Number of SNPs: 4974
Population structure among soybean accessions was performed using the Principal Coordinate Analysis (PCA)
Association between SNP alleles and different nodulation traits data was performed with GAPIT (Genomic Association and Prediction Integrated Tool), Lipka et al. 2012
