Project description:Qualitative and quantitative differences were found between two-dimensional electrophoretic spectra of 546 proteins from two bulked samples of mature rye grain representing: (1) 20 recombinant inbred lines extremely resistant to preharvest sprouting and (2) 20 recombinant inbred lines extremely susceptible to preharvest sprouting. Mass spectrometry of resolved proteins showed that four spots specific for PHS susceptibility represented high molecular weight glutenin subunit, glutathione transferase, 16.9 kDa heat-shock protein, and monomeric alpha-amylase inhibitor. Two spots specific for PHS resistance contained cytosolic malate dehydrogenase and functionally unrecognized protein with sequence homology to rubber elongation factor protein. Majority of 14 proteins with at least two-fold higher accumulation level in preharvest sprouting susceptible lines relative to that found in sprouting resistant lines, showed sequence homology to proteins involved in defense mechanisms against biotic and abiotic stresses including oxidative stress, and those taking part in energy supply. Two spots were identified as regulatory proteins from the 14-3-3 family with one molecular form prevailing in sprouting susceptible and another form highly accumulated in sprouting resistant lines. Further study establishing map positions of the revealed structural genes in respect to quantitative trait loci for preharvest sprouting in rye should answer the question on their possible status as candidate genes.

Project description:Mapping population of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) representing 541 × Ot1-3 cross exhibited wide variations of benzoxazinoid (BX) content in leaves and roots, brown rust resistance, ?-amylase activity in the grain, and resistance to preharvest sprouting. QTL mapping of major BX species using a DArT-based map revealed a complex genetic architecture underlying the production of these main secondary metabolites engaged in stress and allelopathy responses. The synthesis of BX in leaves and roots was found to be regulated by different QTL. The QTL for the BX content, rust resistance, ?-amylase activity, and preharvest sprouting partially overlapped; this points to their common genetic regulation by a definite subset of genes. Only one QTL for BX located on chromosome 7R coincided with the loci of the ScBx genes, which were mapped as two clusters on chromosomes 5RS (Bx3-Bx5) and 7R (Bx1-Bx2). The QTL common for several BX species, rust resistance, preharvest sprouting, and ?-amylase activity are interesting objects for further exploration aimed at developing common markers for these important agronomic traits.

Project description:Preharvest sprouting (PHS) of durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum (Desf.) Husn.) is an important problem in Japan, where the rainy season overlaps with the harvest season. Since there are few PHS-resistant genetic resources in durum wheat, we introduced an R-gene for red seeds, the MFT gene, and the QPhs-5AL QTL, all of which are associated with PHS resistance, into durum wheat from a PHS-resistant bread wheat (T. aestivum L.) cultivar, 'Zenkoujikomugi' (Zen), by backcross breeding. Developed near isogenic lines (NILs) with red seeds had a lower percentage germination (PG) and germination index (GI) than the recurrent parent, and seed color had the greatest effect. A NIL combining all three sequences had the lowest GI and PG, with a similar GI to that of 'Shiroganekomugi' bread wheat. Among NILs with white seeds, a NIL combining MFT and QPhs-5AL had the lowest GI and PG. As the combination of all three sequences from Zen conferred PHS resistance on durum wheat, PHS-resistant genetic resources in bread wheat can be used in breeding durum wheat.

Project description:Preharvest sprouting (PHS) is an undesirable trait that decreases yield and quality in rice production. Understanding the genes and regulatory mechanisms underlying PHS is of great significance for breeding PHS-resistant rice. In this study, we identified a mutant, preharvest sprouting 39 (phs39), that exhibited an obvious PHS phenotype in the field. MutMap+ analysis and transgenic experiments demonstrated that OsAAH, which encodes allantoate amidohydrolase, is the causal gene of phs39 and is essential for PHS resistance. OsAAH was highly expressed in roots and leaves at the heading stage and gradually increased and then weakly declined in the seed developmental stage. OsAAH protein was localized to the endoplasmic reticulum, with a function of hydrolyzing allantoate in vitro. Disruption of OsAAH increased the levels of ureides (allantoate and allantoin) and activated the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and thus increased energy levels in developing seeds. Additionally, the disruption of OsAAH significantly increased asparagine, arginine, and lysine levels, decreased tryptophan levels, and decreased levels of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and abscisic acid (ABA). Our findings revealed that the OsAAH of ureide catabolism is involved in the regulation of rice PHS via energy and hormone metabolisms, which will help to facilitate the breeding of rice PHS-resistant varieties.

Project description:Preharvest sprouting (PHS) significantly reduces grain yield and quality. Identification of genetic loci for PHS resistance will facilitate breeding sprouting-resistant wheat cultivars. In this study, we constructed a genetic map comprising 1,702 non-redundant markers in a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population derived from cross Yangxiaomai/Zhongyou9507 using the wheat 15K single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assay. Four quantitative trait loci (QTL) for germination index (GI), a major indicator of PHS, were identified, explaining 4.6-18.5% of the phenotypic variances. Resistance alleles of Qphs.caas-3AL, Qphs.caas-3DL, and Qphs.caas-7BL were from Yangxiaomai, and Zhongyou9507 contributed a resistance allele in Qphs.caas-4AL. No epistatic effects were detected among the QTL, and combined resistance alleles significantly increased PHS resistance. Sequencing and linkage mapping showed that Qphs.caas-3AL and Qphs.caas-3DL corresponded to grain color genes Tamyb10-A and Tamyb10-D, respectively, whereas Qphs.caas-4AL and Qphs.caas-7BL were probably new QTL for PHS. We further developed cost-effective, high-throughput kompetitive allele-specific PCR (KASP) markers tightly linked to Qphs.caas-4AL and Qphs.caas-7BL and validated their association with GI in a test panel of cultivars. The resistance alleles at the Qphs.caas-4AL and Qphs.caas-7BL loci were present in 72.2 and 16.5% cultivars, respectively, suggesting that the former might be subjected to positive selection in wheat breeding. The findings provide not only genetic resources for PHS resistance but also breeding tools for marker-assisted selection.

Project description:Grain protein contents (GPCs) of barley seeds are significantly different between feed and malting barley cultivars. However, there is still no insight into the proteomic analysis of seed proteins between feed and malting barley cultivars. Also, the genetic control of barley GPC is still unclear. GPCs were measured between mature grains of Yangsimai 3 and Naso Nijo. A proteome profiling of differentially expressed protein was established by using a combination of 2-DE and tandem mass spectrometry. In total, 502 reproducible protein spots in barley seed proteome were detected with a pH range of 4-7 and 6-11, among these 41 protein spots (8.17%) were detected differentially expressed between Yangsimai 3 and Naso Nijo. Thirty-four protein spots corresponding to 23 different proteins were identified, which were grouped into eight categories, including stress, protein degradation and post-translational modification, development, cell, signaling, glycolysis, starch metabolism, and other functions. Among the identified proteins, enolase (spot 274) and small subunit of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (spot 271) are exclusively expressed in barley Yangsimai 3, which may be involved in regulating seed protein expression. In addition, malting quality is characterized by an accumulation of serpin protein, Alpha-amylase/trypsin inhibitor CMb and Alpha-amylase inhibitor BDAI-1. Most noticeably, globulin, an important storage protein in barley seed, undergoes post-translational processing in both cultivars, and also displays different expression patterns.

Project description:BackgroundPre-harvest sprouting (PHS) in wheat can cause substantial reduction in grain yield and end-use quality. Grain color (GC) together with other components affect PHS resistance. Several quantitative trait loci (QTL) have been reported for PHS resistance, and two of them on chromosome 3AS (TaPHS1) and 4A have been cloned.MethodsTo determine genetic architecture of PHS and GC and genetic relationships of the two traits, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted by evaluating a panel of 185 U.S. elite breeding lines and cultivars for sprouting rates of wheat spikes and GC in both greenhouse and field experiments. The panel was genotyped using the wheat 9K and 90K single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays.ResultsFour QTL for GC on four chromosomes and 12 QTL for PHS resistance on 10 chromosomes were identified in at least two experiments. QTL for PHS resistance showed varied effects under different environments, and those on chromosomes 3AS, 3AL, 3B, 4AL and 7A were the more frequently identified QTL. The common QTL for GC and PHS resistance were identified on the long arms of the chromosome 3A and 3D.ConclusionsWheat grain color is regulated by the three known genes on group 3 chromosomes and additional genes from other chromosomes. These grain color genes showed significant effects on PHS resistance in some environments. However, several other QTL that did not affect grain color also played a significant role on PHS resistance. Therefore, it is possible to breed PHS-resistant white wheat by pyramiding these non-color related QTL.

Project description:To reveal grain physio-chemical and proteomic differences between two barley genotypes, Zhenong8 and W6nk2 of high- and low-grain-Cd-accumulation, grain profiles of ultrastructure, amino acid and proteins were compared. Results showed that W6nk2 possesses significantly lower protein content, with hordein depicting the greatest genotypic difference, compared with Zhenong8, and lower amino acid contents with especially lower proportion of Glu, Tyr, Phe and Pro. Both scanning and transmission electron microscopy observation declared that the size of A-type starch molecule in W6nk2 was considerably larger than that of Zhenong8. Grains of Zhenong8 exhibited more protein-rich deposits around starch granules, with some A-type granules having surface pits. Seventeen proteins were identified in grains, using 2-DE coupled with mass spectrometry, with higher expression in Zhenong8 than that in W6nk2; including z-type serpin, serpin-Z7 and alpha-amylase/trypsin inhibitor CM, carbohydrate metabolism, protein synthesis and signal transduction related proteins. Twelve proteins were less expressed in Zhenong8 than that in W6nk2; including barley trypsin inhibitor chloroform/methanol-soluble protein (BTI-CMe2.1, BTI-CMe2.2), trypsin inhibitor, dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), pericentrin, dynein heavy chain and some antiviral related proteins. The data extend our understanding of mechanisms underlying Cd accumulation/tolerance and provides possible utilization of elite genetic resources in developing low-grain-Cd barley cultivars.

Project description:Sprouting of grains in mature spikes before harvest is a major problem in wheat (Triticum aestivum) production worldwide. We cloned and characterized a gene underlying a wheat quantitative trait locus (QTL) on the short arm of chromosome 3A for preharvest sprouting (PHS) resistance in white wheat using comparative mapping and map-based cloning. This gene, designated TaPHS1, is a wheat homolog of a MOTHER OF FLOWERING TIME (TaMFT)-like gene. RNA interference-mediated knockdown of the gene confirmed that TaPHS1 positively regulates PHS resistance. We discovered two causal mutations in TaPHS1 that jointly altered PHS resistance in wheat. One GT-to-AT mutation generates a mis-splicing site, and the other A-to-T mutation creates a premature stop codon that results in a truncated nonfunctional transcript. Association analysis of a set of wheat cultivars validated the role of the two mutations on PHS resistance. The molecular characterization of TaPHS1 is significant for expediting breeding for PHS resistance to protect grain yield and quality in wheat production.

Project description:The objectives of the research were to determine the position of quantitative trait loci (QTL) for ?-amylase activity on the genetic map of a rye recombinant inbred line population-S120 × S76-and to compare them to known QTL for preharvest sprouting and heading earliness. Fourteen QTL for ?-amylase activity on all seven chromosomes were identified. The detected QTL were responsible for 6.09-23.32% of ?-amylase activity variation. The lowest LOD value (2.22) was achieved by locus QAa4R-M3 and the highest (7.79) by locus QAa7R-M1. Some QTL intervals for features of interest overlapped partially or completely. There were six overlapping QTL for ?-amylase activity and preharvest sprouting (on 1R, 3R, 4R, 6R, 7R) and the same number for preharvest sprouting and heading earliness (on 1R, 2R, 6R, 7R). Furthermore, there was one interval partially common to all three traits, mapped on the long arm of chromosome 1R. Testing of lines originating from hybrid breeding programs, such as S120 and S76, may provide important information about the most significant genes and markers for selection in commercial breeding. Among the statistically significant markers selected in the Kruskal-Wallis test (P < 0.005), there were 55 common ones for preharvest sprouting and heading earliness (1R, 2R, 6R), 30 markers coinciding between ?-amylase activity and preharvest sprouting (5R, 7R) and one marker for ?-amylase activity and heading earliness (6R).
