    ABSTRACT Many plant species have succeeded in colonizing a wide range of diverse climates through local adaptation, but the underlying molecular genetics remain obscure. We previously found that winter survival was a direct target of selection during colonization of Japan by the perennial legume Lotus japonicus and identified associated candidate genes. Here, we show that two of these, FERONIA-receptor like kinase (LjFER) and a S-receptor-like kinase gene (LjLecRK) are required for non-acclimated freezing tolerance and show haplotype-dependent cold-responsive expression. Our work suggests that recruiting a conserved growth regulator gene, FER, and a receptor-like kinase gene, LecRK, into the set of cold-responsive genes has contributed to freezing tolerance and local climate adaptation in L. japonicus, offering functional genetic insight into perennial herb evolution.

    As soybean cultivars are adapted to a relatively narrow range of latitude, the effects of climate changes are estimated to be severe. To address this issue, it is important to improve our understanding of the effects of climate change by applying the simulation model including both genetic and environmental factors with their interactions (G×E). To achieve this goal, we conducted the field experiments for soybean core collections using multiple sowing times in multi-latitudinal fields. Sowing time shifts altered the flowering time (FT) and growth phenotypes, and resulted in increasing the combinations of genotypes and environments. Genome-wide association studies for the obtained phenotypes revealed the effects of field and sowing time to the significance of detected alleles, indicating the presence of G×E. By using accumulated phenotypic and environmental data in 2018 and 2019, we constructed multiple regression models for FT and growth pattern. Applicability of the constructed models was evaluated by the field experiments in 2020 including a novel field, and high correlation between the predicted and measured values was observed, suggesting the robustness of the models. The models presented here would allow us to predict the phenotype of the core collections in a given environment.

    Colonization of new habitats is expected to require genetic adaptations to overcome environmental challenges. Here, we use full genome re-sequencing and extensive common garden experiments to investigate demographic and selective processes associated with colonization of Japan by Lotus japonicus over the past ~20,000 years. Based on patterns of genomic variation, we infer the details of the colonization process where L. japonicus gradually spread from subtropical conditions to much colder climates in northern Japan. We identify genomic regions with extreme genetic differentiation between northern and southern subpopulations and perform population structure-corrected association mapping of phenotypic traits measured in a common garden. Comparing the results of these analyses, we find that signatures of extreme subpopulation differentiation overlap strongly with phenotype association signals for overwintering and flowering time traits. Our results provide evidence that these traits were direct targets of selection during colonization and point to associated candidate genes.
