Kurzfassung:
The adverse effects of high temperatures on fruit quality and yield have been reported in many studies of grapevines. MiRNAs play crucial roles in plant growth and development and also fulfill functions in regulating the high-temperature response. In this research, miRNA-based SSR (simple sequence repeat) polymorphisms were analyzed according to the grape genome sequence and then combined with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification and Sanger sequencing methods to analyze the miRNA-SSR diversity of different heat-resistant grape varieties. A statistical analysis of SSR sequences showed that 391 and 12 SSRs were specific to pri-miRNA and pre-miRNA, respectively. In pri-miRNA containing SSR, hexa-nucleotide repeats were the most abundant (52.69%), followed by tetra-nucleotide (13.04%) and minimum penta-nucleotide (4.09%), which were also observed in pre-miRNA sequences. On the other hand, differences in heat resistance among grape varieties were observed. Based on the results of leaf Fv/Fm images, values and phenotypic changes under high-temperature stress, 20 heat-resistant (e.g., Niagara Rosada and Grand Noir) and 20 heat-sensitive (e.g., Shine Muscat and Jumeigui) grape varieties were identified. Further, PCR-Sanger sequencing was used to screen SSR differences in four thermos-tolerant and four thermos-sensitive grape varieties, and finally, eight SSR differential primers were found to be able to distinguish these varieties. Of these, four pairs of primers were selected for validation in 40 grape germplasm resources (20 thermo-tolerance and 20 thermo-sensitivity). The VMIRSSR167c3 highlights that the ratio of SSR (CT) repeat values greater than 17 in heat-resistant varieties was 90%. In conclusion, the VMIRSSR167c3 marker can accurately distinguish between heat-resistant and heat-sensitive grape varieties. The results provide a novel molecular marker for the genetic improvement of grape germplasm resources and will be beneficial to the breeding of heat-resistant varieties in the future.
