全基因组选择技术研讨会


2023 · 北京


中国林业科学研究院林业研究所

林木遗传育种全国重点实验室








全基因组选择(Genomic selection, GS)是利用覆盖全基因组标记对育种目标个体进行遗传潜能评估及预测的方法。全基因组选择作为新一代的育种技术,通过构建预测模型,根据全基因组估计育种值进行早期个体的预测和选择,从而缩短育种世代间隔,加快育种进程,节约成本,推动现代育种向精准化和高效化方向发展。

2023年9月6日-10日,应中国林业科学研究院林业研究所和林木遗传育种全国重点实验室邀请,美国华盛顿州立大学张志武教授来我院进行交流访问,进行为期5天的全基因组选择技术专题培训。培训内容包括:基因型与表型数据模拟、全基因组关联分析、分子标记辅助育种、模型拟合与交叉验证、经典统计(gBLUP、rrBLUP)模型、贝叶斯基因组预测模型的概念原理和算法实现。培训班共收学员40名,其中20名分配给中国林业科学研究院,余下20名由张志武教授根据研究基础、编程能力和区域平衡在全国选取,所有学员全部免收培训费。

      张志武教授任教于华盛顿州立大学作物与土壤科学系,致力于开发创新的统计方法和计算工具,继而推动人类疾病的攻克和加速动植物重要经济性状的遗传改良。他在2014年被华盛顿谷物协会授予杰出教授,享受特殊津贴。他在全基因组信息应用于动植物选择、育种方面进行了大量创新性研究,提出和发展了用于大规模性状-遗传标记关联分析的紧凑混合线性模型及连锁不平衡分析新技术,是著名基因组数据分析软件TASSEL和GAPIT的开发者和设计者,研究成果发表于Nature Genetics、Science、Briefings in Bioinformatics和Plant Cell等著名学术期刊,文章被引量2万余次(https://zzlab.net)。

Marker Assisted Selection(MAS) is the earliest format of molecular breeding based on linkage analysis or Genome-Wide Association Study(GWAS). Genomic Prediction, or Genomic Selection(GS) in animal or plant breeding, uses all available markers regardless of if they are statistically significant or not to predict genetic merit of individuals, especially for complex traits. Literature claims that incorporating GWAS results in genomic selection(GS) would improve accuracy than conducting GS and MAS along(e.g. two fold accuracy increase reported by Ravelombola et al., 2020). However, many of the reports have an invalidate procedure for such claim. As reviewed by McGowan et al. (2021) on Plant Breeding Reviewer(can be accessed by the links in Reference), invalidate procedure can artificially create fake accuracy improvement for such incorporation. There is critical needs to conduct validate procedure if there are conditions that the incorporation improves genomic prediction accuracy and provide guidance to apply the incorporation.
Your investigation should be based on the comparisons of the incorporation to both GS and MAS to address at least one of the following topics.
1.Marker density

When marker density is too low, there are barely chances to identified associated markers in GWAS. The value of incorporation is dramatically reduced. Appropriate marker density is essential for the incorporation.

2.Multiple real traits

Traits are different in regard of genetic architecture, including number of genes and heritability. The knowledge of incorporation is beneficial to breeding on the specific traits.

3.Simulated traits

Simulation has advantages of knowing the genetic architecture underlying a trait, including the true breeding values of individuals. Number of genes and heritability can be varied to find appropriate combinations to incorporate GWAS into GS.

4.GWAS models

There are substantial variations of statistical power among different GWAS models. A model with high statistical power provides valuable prior knowledge and less noise for the incorporation in GS.

5.GS models

Some of GS models also have additional function for GWAS. Therefore, the benefit of incorporating GWAS varies among GS models.

6.Incorporation procedures

There are multiple procedures to incorporate GWAS results in GS, including fitting the associated markers as covariates in BLUP and Bayesian models(Spindel, 2016) or building kinship using associated markers in gBLUP(Zhang et al. 2014).

Your R code should be bug free(10 points) and contain comments to illustrate the purpose(10 points). Your manuscript should contain the following sections:
