    Association Analysis of Germination Level Cold Stress Tolerance and Candidate Gene Identification in Upland Cotton (gossypium Hirsutum L.)
    (Springer, 2022) Akköse Baytar, Asena; Peynircioğlu, Ceng; Sezener, Volkan; Frary, Anne; Doğanlar, Sami
    Cotton originated from ancestors in the Gossypium genus that grew in semi-desert habitats. As a result, it is adversely affected by low temperatures especially during germination and the first weeks of growth. Despite this, there are relatively few molecular studies on cold stress in cotton. This limitation may present a future breeding handicap, as recent years have witnessed increased low temperature damage to cotton production. Cold tolerance is a sustainable approach to obtain good production in case of extreme cold. In the present study, 110 Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) genotypes were evaluated for cold tolerance at the germination stage. We identified vigorous genotypes with cold-related parameters that outperformed the panel’s average performance (x¯ = 76.9% CG, 83.9% CSI, 167.5 CWVI). Molecular genetic diversity analysis with 101 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers yielding 416 loci was used to select tolerant genotypes that could be important materials for breeding this trait. A total of 16 marker-cold tolerance trait associations (p < 0.005) were identified with 10 of them having major effects (PVE > 10%). Based on the positions of these markers, candidate genes for cold tolerance in the G. hirsutum genome were identified. Three of these markers (BNL0569, CIR081 and CIR202) are important candidates for use in marker-assisted breeding for cold tolerance because they mapped to genes previously associated with cold tolerance in other plant species such as Arabidopsis thaliana, rice and tomato.

    Development of Liposomal Formulations of the Eggplant Glycoalkaloids Solasonine and Solamargine
    (Elsevier, 2022) Tatlıdil, Engin; Gürbüz, Nergiz; Doğanlar, Sami; Frary, Anne
    The eggplant glycoalkaloids solasonine and solamargine are efficient biomacromolecules against skin diseases but are water-insoluble which results in inefficient treatment due to inadequate transdermal delivery. To address this problem, several liposomal formulations were prepared and evaluated for parameters including lecithin type, hydration temperature, and pH. The optimal formula with high physical and chemical stability included the lecithin Phospholipon 80H hydrated with 10 mM NaCl (pH 5.5). Solasonine - solamargine loaded liposomes were tested for their physical and chemical stability and drug leakage over a three-month period. Furthermore, the drug release profile of the loaded liposomes was evaluated with different release media. The glycoalkaloids and their liposomal formulations were assessed for their biological activity in culture using HaCaT and SCC-25 cell lines. This work resulted in a biologically effective liposomal formulation that was stable (size <220 nm, PDI [removed]80%) for at least three months.
