Rapid generation of tomato male-sterile lines with a marker use for hybrid seed production by CRISPR/Cas9 system.

ABSTRACT: Owing to their superior agronomic performance, the hybrids of vegetable crops are currently applied extensively. However, effective hybrid production requires a laborious manual emasculation to ensure the purity of hybrid seeds in tomato because of the lack of an effective male sterility system. Here, we created two types of tomato nuclear male-sterile lines with different screening markers in a clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) system. Co-knockouts of male sterile 10³⁵ (Ms10³⁵) and glutathione S-transferase (GSTAA) created a male-sterile line marked by a green hypocotyl. The Ms10³⁵ biallelic mutation was introduced into the woolly tomato background, resulting in the linkage of male sterility and a non-woolly phenotype. Two types of male-sterile lines were easily selected at the seedling stage by hypocotyl color or trichome density and further showed high seed purity during hybrid seed production. Our work established the procedure for a rapid transfer of the male-sterile phenotype to the parents of hybrids without extra-modification by the CRISPR/Cas9 system that can be practically applied to hybrid seed production in tomato. This method will be the basis and example for sterile parent creation of multiple crops for hybrid production with the CRISPR/Cas9 system.

Project description:Bacterial blight (BB), caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae is one among the major diseases in rice, which in severe condition cause losses up to 60% in total yield. Marker assisted pyramiding of three broad spectrum BB resistance genes (xa5, xa13, and Xa21) in prominent rice varieties is the most economical and effective strategy for the management of the BB disease. We report here the pyramiding of three genes (xa5, xa13, and Xa21) in maintainer lines (CO 2B, CO 23B, and CO 24B) of three promising wild abortive cytoplasmic male sterile lines (CO 2A, CO 23A, and CO 24A) through functional markers assisted back cross breeding. IRBB60 with xa5, xa13, and Xa21 genes is used as a donor parent. BC2F1 and BC2F2 generations from a cross of CO 2B, CO 23B, and CO 24B with IRBB60 were evaluated for bacterial blight and non-fertility restoration. In BC2F1, plants with all three resistance genes (xa5, xa13, and Xa21) and high parent genome recovery was identified. In BC2F2, plants with all resistance genes and without fertility restorer (Rf3 and Rf4) were selected. Based on agronomic traits, BB resistance and maintenance of sterility, two plants each in CO 2B × IRBB60, CO 24B × IRBB60 and one plant in CO 23B × IRBB60 combinations were identified. The identified lines were crossed with respective male sterile lines for conversion of improved B line into CMS line through back-crossing, in addition to selfing. The plants with high recurrent genome and phenotypically similar to parental lines and sterile are being used for the hybrid rice development program. Currently, using these lines (improved CMS line), test crosses were made to develop new rice hybrids. Hybrids combinations viz., CO 23A × AD08009R and CO 24A × IET20898R were found to be stable at different locations with high yield. The R line used in this study has been introgressed with xa5, xa13, and Xa21 genes in a separate breeding program. These new hybrids with resistance against bacterial blight will increase the crop production at BB environment.
