摘要： Genetic diversity changes in wheat germplasm have been studied using different molecular markers, but little is known about the impact of plant breeding on the transcribed segments of the wheat genome. The objective of this study was to assess diversity changes in 75 Canadian hard red wheat cultivars released from 1845 to 2004 using 37 EST-derived microsatellite (eSSR) markers. These markers were derived from at least 19 transcribed sequences with putative functions assigned and sampled 17 wheat chromosomes. A total of 138 eSSR alleles was detected, and their allelic frequencies ranged from 0.01 to 0.99 with an average of 0.41. Allelic counts were significantly reduced at three loci for cultivars released after 1990. Sixteen alleles at 14 loci in pre-1910 cultivars were lost in cultivars released after 1990. The lost alleles had frequencies ranging from 0.03 to 0.17 and averaging 0.07. Partitioning the eSSR variation showed the four ancestral families accounted for 14.7% of the variation, followed by the six breeding periods with 12.8% and the eight breeding programs with 5.8%. A genetic shift was observed in the cultivars released over the six breeding periods, reflecting the various breeding efforts. These results illustrate the impact of the Canadian wheat breeding on the transcriptional segments of the wheat genome. These findings, along with those from genomic SSR markers, suggest the Canadian wheat breeding programs have reduced genetic diversity in the hard red spring wheat.
