Abstract: Disclosed is a method for overcoming self-incompatibility of diploid potatoes, including: (1) selecting a target fragment; (2) constructing a gene-targeting recombinant vector; (3) achieving a loss-of-function mutation of the intracellular S-RNase gene; (4) regenerating a plurality of potato plants; (5) specifically amplifying a DNA segment containing the target fragment of the S-RNase gene in a regenerated plant; (6) selecting a regenerated plant in which the S-RNase gene is edited; (7) further screening the selected gene-edited plant for a diploid gene-edited plant line; (8) propagating and planting the selected gene-edited plant line, and identifying the self-compatible phenotype at the flowering stage; and (9) sequencing the gene amplification products of the harvested offspring of the self-compatible plant, and detecting the inheritance and isolation of the offspring in which the target gene is edited.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for breeding self-compatible potatoes, including the following steps: (1) selecting a self-compatible potato variety material and referring to it as PG6359, and cloning the S-RNase gene of PG6359 through the transcriptome sequencing method; and (2) obtaining two full-length sequences of the S-RNase gene from the cloned S-RNase gene in step (1) and referring to them as Ss11 and Ss12 respectively, and after carrying out an artificial self-pollination for the variety material PG6359, selecting the variety material having the genotype of Ss11Ss11 from the offspring as the female parent, and selecting a self-incompatible material as the male parent, and then obtaining a self-compatible F1 generation by hybridization. The invention overcomes the self-incompatibility of diploid potatoes, and does not require the introduction of any wild potato gene fragments, thereby avoiding linkage drag, and providing a basis for the rapid creation of a diploid potato inbred line.

Abstract: Provided herein are materials and methods for producing diploid, fertile, uniform, and vigorous hybrid potato. Also provided are methods of using advanced breeding methods, such as genome design, to generate potato inbred lines with high homozygosity which enables the exploitation of heterosis in this tuber crop and transforms potato breeding from a slow, non-accumulative mode into a fast-iterative one.

Abstract: Provided is a StSCI protein for changing the self-incompatibility of diploid potato materials, wherein the amino acid sequence of the StSCI protein includes or consists of the following sequence: 1) the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1; or 2) a functional homologous sequence having at least 95% sequence identity with the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1; or 3) a protein in which one or more (e.g., 1-10) amino acids are added, deleted, or replaced in the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO: 1 and has the activity of inhibiting self-incompatibility. The advantage of the application is that the StSCI protein may inhibit the cytotoxicity of multiple types of S-RNase, which is hereditary and fundamentally overcomes the defect of self-incompatibility of diploid potatoes, thereby facilitating to realize the cultivation of a high-generation homozygous inbred line of diploid potatoes.

Abstract: The present application relates to the technical field of genetic breeding, and provides a method for identifying whether a diploid potato is self-compatible. The method relates to identifying whether a StSCI gene in the diploid potato is transcribed and expressed. Also disclosed is a method for identifying whether a StSCI gene is expressed by using molecular marker, and a method of screening for the molecular marker, which includes: obtaining the genome sequence information of parental materials, screening for difference sites of the parental materials, screening for the molecular marker, and identifying whether the screened molecular marker are usable. As for the identification of the self-compatibility of a diploid potato by using the screened molecular marker, the identification workload is small, a lot of time is saved, and the identification result is not affected by the environment, and it is accurate and reliable.
