Show abstract
Curly (Karelian) birch is a special variety of Betula pendula distributed in the northwestern part of Europe. Karelian birch is well-known for its valuable figured curly wood also known as "wooden marble". The genetic basis underlying curly wood formation has been debated since last century, however, there was no data about loci responsible for the curly wood trait. In the present study, we analyzed two full-sibs populations derived from experimental crosses of curly birches and segregating for the trait. RADseq genotyping was applied to reveal how many loci are involved in curliness formation and to search for genetic variants associated with this trait. One single interval on chromosome 10 was detected containing possible candidate genes. InDel marker BpCW1 was suggested for the first time for marker-assisted selection of trees with curly wood at their earliest stages of development.
