RenSeq-guided Resistance Loci Mapping

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Three mapping populations were used in this study: (1) F2 populations of SP2271 × SP2272 and (2) BC1 and (3) F2 populations of SP2271 × SP2300. The populations were phenotyped by agroinfiltration of RXLR effectors. A cork borer was used for sampling, and the leaf discs from the responsive and non-responsive progenies were pooled. The Genomic DNA was isolated using the Qiagen DNeasy plant kit (Qiagen, 69104). RenSeq libraries were then prepared, as described previously24 (link). The libraries were sequenced (Illumina 2 × 250-bp reads) by Novogene (Beijing, China). The SNP filtering and calling steps were described previously26 (link).
To design molecular markers, the 10× PCR-free resequencing reads were mapped to the SP2271 S. americanum reference genome. Then SCAR markers that linked with the BSA-RenSeq signals were designed; amplicons should only be present in the non-responsive allele. The SCAR markers were first tested on the parental lines and the verified markers were then used on genomic DNA from individual non-responsive plants. GoTaq G2 DNA polymerase (Promega, 0000066542) was used for genotyping.

The reaction-mix was incubated at 94 °C for 4 min, followed by 40 cycles of 30 s at 94 °C, 45 s at 55 °C and 45 s at 72 °C, and once a final step for 5 min at 72 °C. PCR amplifications were analyzed by agarose-gel electrophoresis. Therefore, next to 5 µl 100 bp-DNA-ladder, whole sample volumes were loaded onto a 2% (w/v) agarose-TBE gel (TBE buffer: 90 mM Tris-HCl, 80 mM boric acid, 2 mM EDTA pH 8.3) with 5 µl/100 ml midori-green and run at 50 V for 1 h. DNA separation was visualized under a UV transilluminator and documented by using Gel Doc software (Bio-Rad).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
10 adult Oregon-R females uninfected (as a negative control) or infected with MSRO-Ug, MSRO-H99, and MSRO-SE were collected and genomic DNA was purified (see quantitative PCR methods). The 3’ portion of SpAID gene was amplified with forward and reverse primer sets (spaid_1568F with spaid.L_+136R for MSRO-Ug/MSRO-H99 and spaid.S_+362R for MSRO-SE, respectively) (Supplementary Table 1) under the following PCR conditions: 95°C for 2 min followed by 30 cycles of 95°C for 30 sec, 50°C for 30 sec and 60°C for 3 min. Due to the low GC content of the SpAID gene (23.3%), extension at 60°C instead of 72°C was essential for the successful PCR amplification55 (link). The 50-µl PCR mixture contained 2 µl of genomic DNA, 1.25 U of GoTaq G2 DNA polymerase (Promega), 1x green reaction buffer (Promega), 0.5 µM primers, and 0.2 mM dNTP mixture. The PCR fragment was purified from agarose gel by the Wizard SV Gel and PCR Clean-Up System (Promega) and read by direct sequencing. To design sequencing primes, we referred to the genome sequences assembled from the PacBio data. No distinct PCR amplification was detected in uninfected Oregon-R female flies, confirming that the SpAID gene is not encoded by the D. melanogaster genome but by the Spiroplasma genome.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
B. cinerea mutant strains used in this study were generated by PEG-mediated protoplast transformation as described by (Kars et al., 2005 (link)) with minor modifications. The constructs of donor templates were made by the yeast recombination method as described by Schumacher (2012) (link). For the construction of plasmids as well as the amplification of donor templates, PCR was performed with the primer sets shown in Supplementary Table 1 using the Expand™ High Fidelity PCR System (Sigma). After obtaining transformed colonies on hygromycin-selective plates, the screening of transformants was performed by PCR with primer sets indicated in Supplementary Table 1 using the GoTaq® G2 DNA Polymerase (Promega). The coding region of the Bcspl1 gene from the mutants used in this study was sequenced to verify whether or not the sRNA target site contained the 5-nucleotide substitution.
