Abstract
Pummelo cultivars are usually difficult to identify morphologically, especially when fruits are unavailable. The problem was addressed in this study with the use of two methods: high resolution melting analysis of SNPs and sequencing of DNA segments. In the first method, a set of 25 SNPs with high polymorphic information content were selected from SNPs predicted by analyzing ESTs and sequenced DNA segments. High resolution melting analysis was then used to genotype 260 accessions including 55 from Myanmar, and 178 different genotypes were thus identified. A total of 99 cultivars were assigned to 86 different genotypes since the known somatic mutants were identical to their original genotypes at the analyzed SNP loci. The Myanmar samples were genotypically different from each other and from all other samples, indicating they were derived from sexual propagation. Statistical analysis showed that the set of SNPs was powerful enough for identifying at least 1000 pummelo genotypes, though the discrimination power varied in different pummelo groups and populations. In the second method, 12 genomic DNA segments of 24 representative pummelo accessions were sequenced. Analysis of the sequences revealed the existence of a high haplotype polymorphism in pummelo, and statistical analysis showed that the segments could be used as genetic barcodes that should be informative enough to allow reliable identification of 1200 pummelo cultivars. The high level of haplotype diversity and an apparent population structure shown by DNA segments and by SNP genotypes, respectively, were discussed in relation to the origin and domestication of the pummelo species.

The problem was addressed in this study with the use of two methods: high resolution melting analysis of SNPs and sequencing of DNA segments. In the first method, a set of 25 SNPs with high polymorphic information content were selected from SNPs predicted by analyzing ESTs and sequenced DNA segments. High resolution melting analysis was then used to genotype 260 accessions including 55 from Myanmar, and 178 different genotypes were thus identified. A total of 99 cultivars were assigned to 86 different genotypes since the known somatic mutants were identical to their original genotypes at the analyzed SNP loci. The Myanmar samples were genotypically different from each other and from all other samples, indicating they were derived from sexual propagation. Statistical analysis showed that the set of SNPs was powerful enough for identifying at least 1000 pummelo genotypes, though the discrimination power varied in different pummelo groups and populations. In the second method, 12 genomic DNA segments of 24 representative pummelo accessions were sequenced. Analysis of the sequences revealed the existence of a high haplotype polymorphism in pummelo, and statistical analysis showed that the segments could be used as genetic barcodes that should be informative enough to allow reliable identification of 1200 pummelo cultivars. The high level of haplotype diversity and an apparent population structure shown by DNA segments and by SNP genotypes, respectively, were discussed in relation to the origin and domestication of the pummelo species.</p></abstract><funding-group><funding-statement>This work was Supported by the International Science & Technology Cooperation Program of China (Grant No: 2012DFA30610), the National Program on Key Basic Research Project (Grant No: 2011CB100600), and the National Natural Science Foundation of China (Grant No: 30971992).

Burman) Merrill] is an important cash crop that is widely cultivated and consumed in the world, and particularly in China and other Southeast Asian countries. Pummelo cultivars are easy to be mis-identified for the following reasons: first, there are hundreds of pummelo cultivars, and the origin and morphological traits of many local cultivars have been poorly documented and hence largely unknown to the outside world; second, pummelo cultivars have been traditionally distinguished by a few morphological traits, mostly fruit traits, and trees without fruit are often difficult to distinguish; third, unlike many other poly-embryonic species in <italic>Citrus</italic>, true pummelos are mono-embryonic and could have been both sexually and asexually propagated during domestication, adding more difficulty to the cultivar identification problem. A reasonable solution to the pummelo cultivar identification problem is to use DNA molecular data to help identify the cultivars.</p><p>Cultivated pummelos have been reported to be highly diverse in Southeast Asia, China and India by different researchers based on phenotypes of their fruits <xref rid="pone.0094506-Chomchalow1" ref-type="bibr">[1]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Dass1" ref-type="bibr">[2]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-SpiegelRoy1" ref-type="bibr">[3]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Ye1" ref-type="bibr">[4]</xref>. Barkley et al. <xref rid="pone.0094506-Barkley1" ref-type="bibr">[5]</xref> analyzed 370 citrus accessions including 89 pummelo individuals on 24 SSRs and identified a heterozygosity of 0.4238 for the pummelo accessions. Traditionally, pummelo cultivars in China were classified into three groups, i.e., the Wendan group, the Shatianyou group and the hybrid group (interspecific). A study based on SSR and AFLP markers identified a high genetic diversity existing in the 110 analysed pummelo cultivars collected mainly from China, and showed that the Shatianyou group members were closely related to each other whereas members in Wendan group were more diverse <xref rid="pone.0094506-Liu1" ref-type="bibr">[6]</xref>. In the study of Ollitrault et al. <xref rid="pone.0094506-Ollitrault1" ref-type="bibr">[7]</xref> using clementine (<italic>Citrus clementina</italic> Blanco) EST-SNPs, 10 pummelos were assigned to 8 different genotypes. These studies suggested that it should be possible to identify pummelo cultivars using molecular data.</p><p>SNPs are widely used for identity analysis in recent years <xref rid="pone.0094506-Yoon1" ref-type="bibr">[8]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Deleu1" ref-type="bibr">[9]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Pakstis1" ref-type="bibr">[10]</xref>. SNPs were developed for variety identification in melon (<italic>Cucumis melo</italic> L.) <xref rid="pone.0094506-Deleu1" ref-type="bibr">[9]</xref>, cereal <xref rid="pone.0094506-Marshall1" ref-type="bibr">[11]</xref> and capsicum (<italic>Capsicum annuum</italic> L.) <xref rid="pone.0094506-Kang1" ref-type="bibr">[12]</xref>. Using SNPs in tree cultivar identification has also been reported. It was claimed that several thousands of grapevine (<italic>Vitis vinifera</italic> L.) cultivars could be distinguished with the use of a set of 48 SNPs <xref rid="pone.0094506-Cabezas1" ref-type="bibr">[13]</xref>. Cultivar identification using SNPs was also used in olive (<italic>Olea europaea</italic> L.) <xref rid="pone.0094506-Reale1" ref-type="bibr">[14]</xref> and <italic>Eucalyptus</italic><xref rid="pone.0094506-Correia1" ref-type="bibr">[15]</xref>. Another popular DNA marker in individual or cultivar identification is SSR <xref rid="pone.0094506-Xie1" ref-type="bibr">[16]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Moriya1" ref-type="bibr">[17]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Butler1" ref-type="bibr">[18]</xref>. Generally speaking, a SSR contains more polymorphic information content (PIC) than does a SNP, as SSRs are often multi-allelic while SNPs are mostly bi-allelic <xref rid="pone.0094506-Hamblin1" ref-type="bibr">[19]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Tokarska1" ref-type="bibr">[20]</xref>. A comparative study showed that a set of 23 selected SNPs was similar in discrimination power to a set of 13 SSRs for soybean (<italic>Glycine max</italic> (L.) Merr.) cultivar identification <xref rid="pone.0094506-Yoon1" ref-type="bibr">[8]</xref>. However, SNPs have several advantages over SSRs. First, the nomenclature of SNP is much simpler than that of SSR, which makes analysis and sharing of results much easier <xref rid="pone.0094506-Rafalski1" ref-type="bibr">[21]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Cabezas1" ref-type="bibr">[13]</xref>. Second, SNPs greatly outnumber SSRs in genomes, and the study of Tokarska et al. <xref rid="pone.0094506-Tokarska1" ref-type="bibr">[20]</xref> showed that in case of difficult to obtain enough polymorphic SSRs due to low level of genetic diversity it was still possible to find enough number of SNPs for identity analysis. Third, SNPs are genetically more stable than SSRs, since SSR loci are prone to unequal recombination during meiosis or slippage during DNA replication, and new alleles or homoplasy can be generated <xref rid="pone.0094506-Gupta1" ref-type="bibr">[22]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Curtu1" ref-type="bibr">[23]</xref>. And SNP genotyping results have been reported to be highly consistent among different laboratories using different genotyping techniques <xref rid="pone.0094506-Jones1" ref-type="bibr">[24]</xref>.</p><p>High resolution melting analysis (HRMA) has been proven to be an efficient, moderately high throughput, and highly accurate genotyping method <xref rid="pone.0094506-Gundry1" ref-type="bibr">[25]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Tong1" ref-type="bibr">[26]</xref>. HRMA allows tens to hundreds of samples to be analyzed in a single plate in 30 minutes or so depending on the type of machine used <xref rid="pone.0094506-Montgomery1" ref-type="bibr">[27]</xref>. And these advantages make it quite suitable for quick identification of cultivars.</p><p>DNA segments represent another valuable method for genetic variability studies. Segments from mitochondrial, chloroplast or nuclear genomes have been utilized for species identification in DNA barcoding technology <xref rid="pone.0094506-Hebert1" ref-type="bibr">[28]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Bruni1" ref-type="bibr">[29]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Schoch1" ref-type="bibr">[30]</xref>. However, the segments used in barcoding are intentionally selected for their possessing enough inter-specific rather than intra-specific polymorphism and are therefore not so suitable for individual identification within a species. But in theory, DNA segments could still be applicable for identifying individuals or cultivars if enough independent polymorphic segments were used. In this respect, chloroplast and mitochondrial segments are less effective than nuclear DNA segments since they are inherited asexually <xref rid="pone.0094506-Birky1" ref-type="bibr">[31]</xref>. In contrast, a polymorphic nuclear locus containing a number of alleles (haplotypes) could generate a larger number of genotypes in a diploid organism. Thus, combinations between different such loci would be numerous enough to allow any cultivar to be identified.</p><p>In this study, we tried to use SNPs and a limited number of DNA segments to achieve a quick and reliable identification of pummelos.</p></sec><sec sec-type="materials|methods" id="s2"><title>Materials and Methods</title><sec id="s2a"><title>Plant materials</title><p>All the plant materials were acquired with permissions from their owners or preservers abiding by the laws in China and in Myanmar.

Second, direct sequencing of pummelo genomic segments was used to obtain more SNPs.

The PCR amplicons were then cloned using pEASY-T1 Simple Cloning Kit (TransGen Biotech, Beijing China). Two or more positive clones were sequenced for each gene segment from both cultivars using Sanger method. The synthesis of oligonucleotide primers and Sanger sequencing were carried out by Beijing Genomics Institute (BGI, Shenzhen, China). Sequences were aligned using Clustal X version 2.0 <xref rid="pone.0094506-Larkin1" ref-type="bibr">[37]</xref> and putative SNPs were identified by that the two SNP alleles should be represented by at least two different clones respectively.</p><p>A total of 60 putative SNPs were thus identified and used to select for a set of informative SNPs suitable for pummelo cultivar identification. First, each SNP was experimentally analyzed to exclude those that were unable to be genotyped by HRMA method. Second,allelic frequencies were estimated for each of the remaining SNPs by genotyping 24 randomly selected Chinese pummelo accessions (excluding somatic mutations), and the SNPs with minor allelic frequency >10% were retained as candidates. Third, all candidate SNPs were mapped onto the sweet orange reference genome <xref rid="pone.0094506-Xu1" ref-type="bibr">[38]</xref> to estimate the physical distance and the linkage relationship between any two SNPs, and those without significant linkage to others were preferred. However, some physically linked SNPs were both retained for their high PIC values, and treated as super loci (described in Genotype analysis).

On all the 25 Set1 SNPs, heterozygotes were clearly distinguishable from homozygotes by shapes of their respective melting curves and derivative melting curves. The Tm difference between the two different homozygote amplicons of each SNP was between 0.6 and 2.0°C, and accordingly, the amplicons' melting and first derivative curves were shifted away from each other along the horizontal axis (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0094506-g001">Figure 1</xref>).</p><fig id="pone-0094506-g001" orientation="portrait" position="float"><object-id pub-id-type="doi">10.1371/journal.pone.0094506.g001</object-id><label>Figure 1</label><caption><title>Representative high resolution melting curves for pummelo SNPs.</title><p>The left and the right panels were melting curves and derivative melting curves respectively.

However, the SNP chr125991020_A/T which was an A/T SNP showed ∼1°C of difference in Tm values between the two different homozygotes, making them clearly distinguishable (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0094506-g001">Figure 1</xref>). Currently, we have no explanation for this.</p><p>To our surprise, two or more different heterozygous melting curves were observed on 3 SNPs during our initial SNP screening work as shown by SNP chr4_18094735A/G in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0094506-g001">Figure 1</xref>. It was suspected that there existed extra mutation(s) in primer-template complementary regions, which made the PCR amplification favor the template that paired perfectly with the primers because any mismatch between template and primer would reduce the chance of the primer annealing to the template. Apparently, the majority of the amplicons should be from the template pairing perfectly with the primers rather than from that pairing imperfectly with the primers, and the shape of the resulting melting curve should thus be distorted so as to approach to the typical curve of the amplicons from the homozygous template without primer-template mismatches (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0094506.s001">Figure S1</xref>). To verify, the flanking sequences of the 3 SNPs were cloned and sequenced, and new SNPs were indeed found on their primer-template pairing regions (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0094506.s001">Figure S1</xref>). The three SNPs were therefore excluded from further use.</p><p>To find how reliable our HRMA genotyping results were, 36 cultivars were repeatedly analysed (two to three times) at all Set1 SNP loci, and a total of 6 mismatches were identified. Detailed analysis indicated that these mismatches were resulted from experimental errors, i.e., sample loading errors, which were identifiable and correctable by either repeating HRMA analysis or inspecting manually the melting curves. In addition, genotyping by sequencing was also done for 1∼25 accessions at Set1 SNP loci to verify the HRMA data. In the end, it was found the results from both sequencing and HRMA were fairly consistent.</p></sec><sec id="s3b"><title>Genotypes of the 260 pummelo accessions</title><p>Genotyping of the 260 accessions were conducted on all Set1 SNPs (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0094506.s004">Table S1</xref>).

Eleven of the 26 UNKNOWN accessions matched known cultivars, and the remaining 15 accessions were assigned to 15 new genotypes. The 55 MYANMAR individuals were assigned to 55 unique genotypes.

It was shown in <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0094506-g003">Figure 3</xref> that the number of genotypes identified increased with increased use of SNPs and 13 SNPs were already enough to distinguish all 178 genotypes.

The same set of SNPs could have different power in identity analysis in different populations, since populations are often different in allelic frequencies. According to tradition, the 101 CUL+UNKNOWN genotypes (86 cultivar genotypes +15 unknown genotypes) were classified into SHATIANYOU group (7 genotypes), WENDAN group (25 genotypes) and UNASSIGNED group (69 genotypes). To detect if there truly was population structure in pummelos the genotype data were subjected to population genetics analysis. Test against Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium showed that the null hypothesis was rejected (p<0.05) on 9 and 3 of the 25 Set1 SNPs in CUL+UNKNOWN group and in MYANMAR group, respectively, suggesting the accessions in the two arbitrary assigned groups could be in fact from different populations. In addition, the fixation coefficients of the SHATIANYOU group and the WENDAN group were 0.02 and 0.10, respectively, suggesting also that there could exist unresolved population structure in WENDAN group.</p><p>By using Bayesian clustering program STRUCTURE version 2.3.4 with K = 1∼8, the average ln likelihood values peaked at K = 4 for either the CUL+UNKNOWN or the CUL+UNKNOWN+MYANMAR, indicating most likely there were 4 populations in our analyzed samples.

20 true to type pummelo cultivars remained, the nucleotide diversity (<italic>π</italic>) of the 12 gene segments varied from 0.0004 to 0.0061 and averaged at 0.0029 (<xref ref-type="table"

The number of identified haplotypes on each gene segment varied from 2 to 9 and averaged at 4.7 haplotypes/segment, and the haplotype diversity (equivalent to PIC) varied from 0.31 to 0.80 and averaged at 0.57 (<xref ref-type="table" rid="pone-0094506-t003">Table 3</xref>), which was more than twice of the average PIC value of the Set1 SNPs. Significant LD was discovered between two linked gene segments (Cs9g14320 and Cs9g16170) mapped on pseudo-chromosome 9 of the reference sweet orange genome, and the two segments were combined as a super locus in PI calculation. PI and PIsib of the 12 segments were 4.9E-08 and 8.7E-04, respectively, suggesting that the combined use of the 12 gene segments is very powerful for pummelo cultivar identification but has limited power in distinguishing siblings. It was found that the haplotype diversity for each segment was significantly (p<0.01) correlated with (by Pearson correlation analysis, r<sup>2</sup> = 0.53) the number of SNPs found on the segment (varied from 1 to 10 SNPs).</p></sec></sec><sec id="s4"><title>Discussion</title><p>Cultivar identification is a prerequisite for a more efficient breeding activity and a more successful cultivation for a crop. The problem is that it is often difficult to identify cultivars solely by morphological traits <xref rid="pone.0094506-Wang1" ref-type="bibr">[54]</xref>. This is because commercial cultivars are more or less similar to each other in many agronomic traits that have been convergently selected by humans. Though many methods have been explored, it seems that only DNA markers offer a satisfactory solution to this problem since suitable number of DNA markers, if used collectively, have been demonstrated to be good enough to identify non-clonal individuals or plant varieties <xref rid="pone.0094506-Yoon1" ref-type="bibr">[8]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Deleu1" ref-type="bibr">[9]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Xie1" ref-type="bibr">[16]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Moriya1" ref-type="bibr">[17]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Butler1" ref-type="bibr">[18]</xref>. For example, a bi-allelic SNP locus can have three possible genotypes: 2 homozygous and 1 heterozygous, and N such SNP loci can have 3<sup>N</sup> different combinations, a number increases exponentially with increase in N. If N is large enough, the possible combinations will also be large enough to accommodate all known sexually originated cultivars. In other word, the combinations of a suitable number of DNA markers can be used as genetic barcodes to be assigned to a definite number of cultivars. The advantages of such a cultivar identification system are two-folds: 1) the barcodes can be easily recorded and shared; 2) the identification results are rather precise with statistical support. With such a system, to identify a cultivar needs only to analyze its genotypes at the loci used for genetic barcodes and compare the results to those in the database. In this study we investigated the possibility of using combinations of either SNPs or DNA segment sequences in the identification of pummelo cultivars that are easily misidentified by morphological traits, and to our satisfaction, both methods were shown to be powerful enough to identify our study samples. Therefore, the SNP genotypes listed in <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0094506.s004">Table S1</xref> can be used as reference genetic barcodes for pummelos.</p><p>High PIC and low level of LD between markers have been the two important factors to be considered in selecting markers for high efficient identification of cultivars <xref rid="pone.0094506-Yoon1" ref-type="bibr">[8]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Cabezas1" ref-type="bibr">[13]</xref>. PIC was largely dependent on allelic frequency. To increase PIC some researchers used only SNPs with higher than 0.1 allelic frequency <xref rid="pone.0094506-Werner1" ref-type="bibr">[55]</xref>, and some others set the PIC value higher than 0.2 when choosing markers <xref rid="pone.0094506-Yoon1" ref-type="bibr">[8]</xref>. In our case, with the use of SNPs with an allelic frequency of higher than 0.1, a relatively satisfactory PIC value was obtained. LD not only reduces the overall discrimination power of the markers used <xref rid="pone.0094506-Yoon1" ref-type="bibr">[8]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Lee1" ref-type="bibr">[56]</xref> but also influences the evaluation for discrimination power of the markers. Nevertheless markers physically linked could still be used in parentage and identity analysis since the linkage phase could be assessed and the tightly linked SNPs could be used as a ‘super locus’ <xref rid="pone.0094506-Jones2" ref-type="bibr">[57]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Jones3" ref-type="bibr">[58]</xref>. Such super locus could still have a very high PIC as shown in the present study and other studies <xref rid="pone.0094506-Jones3" ref-type="bibr">[58]</xref>. However, markers in significant LD are not necessarily physically linked, since LD could also be caused by other factors such as genetic drift, bottle neck effect, selection within populations, and population admixture et al. <xref rid="pone.0094506-Remington1" ref-type="bibr">[59]</xref>. In our study, two of the Set1 SNPs, chrUn_5023005A/G and chrUn_19904498A/G, were in LD but most probably were not physically linked.</p><p>The transferability of the SNPs discovered from certain samples to other samples may be limited, which is known as ascertainment bias <xref rid="pone.0094506-Clark1" ref-type="bibr">[60]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Lachance1" ref-type="bibr">[61]</xref>. Ascertainment bias could influence the use of SNPs in cultivar identification. This is because SNPs highly polymorphic in one population are not necessarily similarly polymorphic in other populations. Anyway, the problem could be solved at the stage of SNP discovery. An intuitive way is to select ancient SNPs that are homogeneously polymorphic among the study populations as demonstrated in 6 <italic>Eucalyptus</italic> species by Correia et al. <xref rid="pone.0094506-Correia1" ref-type="bibr">[15]</xref>. In a case of human individual identification, small <italic>F</italic>st values (<0.06 in the study of Pakstis et al.) were required for SNPs in order to avoid ascertainment bias <xref rid="pone.0094506-Pakstis1" ref-type="bibr">[10]</xref>. In this study, ascertainment bias was shown to influence the PI value of Set1 SNPs by at most two magnitudes, even though, the set of the SNPs should be still usable in a predicted population of N = 1000 with the lowest PI value. Therefore, the barcode system will have enough room for accommodating future cultivars.</p><p>Taking together, the Set1 SNPs should be very usable for pummelo cultivar identification. And this conclusion was verified by the genotyping results of the 260 accessions. First, only 13 SNPs were needed to discriminate all the discovered genotypes (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0094506-g003">Figure 3</xref>), and every two genotypes were different by at least 2 SNPs when all the 25 SNPs were used (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0094506-g002">Figure 2</xref>), showing that this set of SNPs were more than enough for the discrimination of all study genotypes. Second, accessions known to be different were discriminated, and all the 55 Myanmar individuals grown from seedlings were assigned to 55 different genotypes. Third, the obtained PI values also suggested that the 25 Set1 SNPs were powerful enough for identification of pummelo cultivars.</p><p>The accuracy of the genotyping method influences the efficacy of cultivar identification <xref rid="pone.0094506-Pompanon1" ref-type="bibr">[62]</xref>. In this respect, HRMA has been shown to be highly efficient and accurate <xref rid="pone.0094506-Gundry1" ref-type="bibr">[25]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Yang1" ref-type="bibr">[36]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Wu1" ref-type="bibr">[40]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Smith1" ref-type="bibr">[63]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Distefano1" ref-type="bibr">[64]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Distefano2" ref-type="bibr">[65]</xref>. In the study of Gundry et al. <xref rid="pone.0094506-Gundry1" ref-type="bibr">[25]</xref>, the accuracy of HRMA reached 99.7%. However, mismatches between template and primer reduced greatly the accuracy as shown in this study (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0094506-g001">Figure 1</xref> and <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0094506.s001">Figure S1</xref>), and therefore, should be avoided. It was noted that even a 5′ end template-primer mismatch distorted the melting curves severely enough to interfere with judgment about the genotype (<xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0094506-g001">Figure 1</xref>), and more severe distortion with 3′ end mismatches should be expected.</p><p>In due course of verifying the Set1 SNP genotyping results by sequencing, we noted that a high haplotype diversity existed in the sequences. This prompted us to investigate if it was possible to use directly the gene sequences to identify cultivars, which is similar to the traditional DNA barcoding technology used in identifying species. We set out to sequence a total of 12 gene segments for 24 representative accessions. At a first glance, the total PIC value of the 54 Set2 SNPs, for being in 12 tightly linked groups, must be lower than that of the same number of independent SNPs, but in fact the high SNP density also increased the haplotype diversity. The resulted PI value suggested that for the purpose of cultivar identification the 12 gene segments were already powerful enough. It must be pointed out that we did not intentionally select the target segments, yet they showed a surprisingly high discrimination power. Therefore, it should be possible to select even fewer high PIC segments to identify pummelo cultivars. Apparently, more DNA segment sequences are needed to identify pummelo cultivars compared to the DNA barcoding technology used in species identification that uses only 1 or a few DNA segment sequences <xref rid="pone.0094506-Hebert1" ref-type="bibr">[28]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Bruni1" ref-type="bibr">[29]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Schoch1" ref-type="bibr">[30]</xref> for the genetic differences are smaller between cultivars than between species.</p><p>For fruit trees like citrus, the genetic difference may be either very large between cultivars derived from inter-specific or inter-genic hybridizations or very small between cultivars originated from somatic mutations <xref rid="pone.0094506-Bret1" ref-type="bibr">[66]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-CorazzaNunes1" ref-type="bibr">[67]</xref>. It is easy to identity inter-specific or inter-genic hybrids but usually not easy to identify somatic mutants for it is almost impossible to locate by chance the specific point mutations when using a limited number of markers. As an example, the three mutants of the white flesh Guanximiyou, red flesh/white sponge Guanximiyou, red flesh/red sponge Sanhongyou and yellow flesh/white sponge Huangjinyou, were genotypically identical to white flesh Guanximiyou at all analyzed loci. Similarly, the mutant red Hassaku was identical to Hassaku. Beni Amanatsu and Kawano Natsudaidai were identical as expected for both were mutants of Natsudaidai. The grapefruits, ‘Red Marsh’, ‘Star Ruby’ and ‘Flame’ were also not surprisingly identified to have the same genotype since almost all grapefruit lineage can always be traced back to “Duncan”, the oldest grapefruit cultivar <xref rid="pone.0094506-Hodgson1" ref-type="bibr">[68]</xref>. Though red flesh Shatianyou and early red flesh Shatianyou were identified to have the same genotype, they were not somatic mutations of any other SHATIANYOU member. Except somatic mutants, samples with identical genotypes should be regarded as synonyms. Examples are four SHATIANYOU cultivars, Gulaoqian, Lingnanshatianyou, Hejiangyou and Zhenlongyou that are known to be morphologically inseparable. Six groups of samples were identified as homonyms after verification with repeated genotyping,however, the possibility that they have been mixed during germplasm collection could not be excluded. Particularly, the three Huazhoujuhong accessions (ID 162, 163 and 176 in <xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0094506.s004">Table S1</xref>) were in fact different and should be treated as homonyms, and the results verified the notion that Huazhoujuhongs are a group of hybrids <xref rid="pone.0094506-Tan1" ref-type="bibr">[69]</xref>.</p><p>The origin and dispersion of the pummelo species remain controversial for no wild pummelos have been unequivocally recognized. South China, Southeast Asia and Northeast India were independently proposed to be the origin place since pummelos were highly polymorphic in these areas <xref rid="pone.0094506-Chomchalow1" ref-type="bibr">[1]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Dass1" ref-type="bibr">[2]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-SpiegelRoy1" ref-type="bibr">[3]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Ye1" ref-type="bibr">[4]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Candolle1" ref-type="bibr">[70]</xref>, <xref rid="pone.0094506-Tanaka1" ref-type="bibr">[71]</xref>. Yunnan was suggested to be the origin center of citrus for being rich in not only native citrus species but also river systems that could facilitate the dispersion of citrus <xref rid="pone.0094506-Gmitter1" ref-type="bibr">[72]</xref>. This may be especially true regarding the origin and dispersion of pummelo because pummelo fruit, for having peels with very thick sponge tissue to facilitate floating and enhance tolerance to mechanical injuries, could be carried away by rivers for long distances. It can be envisaged that pummelos were accidentally brought to the downstream by rivers originating from or flowing through Yunnan in ancient times, and then dispersed to nearby areas by fruit-eating animals to develop eventually isolated populations. These isolated populations served as genetic pools for domestication and should have been gradually mixed up. In this study, an obvious population structure was indeed revealed by Set1 SNPs. In addition, high haplotype diversity and high nucleotide diversity were observed on 12 gene segments of the 24 representative cultivars. Furthermore, a large number of the pummelo genotypes were inferred to be admixtures of different populations (<xref ref-type="supplementary-material" rid="pone.0094506.s002">Figure S2</xref>). It should also be mentioned that a lot of pummelos recorded in ancient Chinese literatures were distributed along the Yangtze River and the Pearl River that flow through Yunnan, and that pummelos were also found along riverbanks in Yunnan and Myanmar during our field investigations.</p></sec><sec sec-type="supplementary-material" id="s5"><title>Supporting Information</title><supplementary-material content-type="local-data" id="pone.0094506.s001"><label>Figure S1</label><caption><p><bold>Verification of the primer-template mismatch suspected in HRMA analysis (bottom panels in </bold><xref ref-type="fig" rid="pone-0094506-g001"><bold>Figure 1</bold></xref><bold>) by sequencing.</bold> A.
