Favorable alleles mining for gelatinization temperature, gel consistency and amylose content in Oryza sativa by association mapping.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Improving the gelatinization temperature (GT), gel consistency (GC) and amylose content (AC) for parental grain eating and cooking qualities (ECQs) are key factors for enhancing average grain ECQs for hybrid japonica rice. RESULTS:In this study, a genome-wide association mapping (GWAS) for ECQs was performed on a selected sample of 462 rice accessions in 5 environments using 262 simple sequence repeat markers. We identified 10 loci and 27 favorable alleles for GT, GC and AC, and some of these loci were overlapped with starch synthesis-related genes. Four SSR loci for the GT trait were distributed on chromosomes 3, 5, 8, and 9, of which two SSR loci were novel. Two SSR loci associated with the GC trait were distributed on chromosomes 3 and 6, although only one SSR locus was novel. Four SSR loci associated with the AC trait were distributed on chromosomes 3, 6, 10, and 11, of which three SSR loci were novel. The novel loci RM6712 and RM6327 were simultaneously identified in more than 2 environments and were potentially reliable QTLs for ECQs, with 15 parental combinations being predicted. These QTLs and parental combinations should be used in molecular breeding to improve japonica rice average ECQs. CONCLUSIONS:Among the 10 SSR loci associated with GT, GC and AC for grain ECQs detected in 27 favorable alleles, the favorable allele RM3600-90bp on chromosome 9 could significantly reduce GT, RM5753-115bp on chromosome 6 could significantly increase GC, and RM6327-230bp on chromosome 11 could significantly reduce AC in hybrid japonica rice mixed rice samples.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Wet direct-seeded rice is a possible alternative to conventional puddled transplanted rice; the former uses less water and reduces labor requirements. Improving seed reserve utilization efficiency (SRUE) is a key factor in facilitating the application of this technology. However, the QTLs controlling this trait are poorly investigated. In this study, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was conducted using a natural population composed of 542 accessions of rice (Oryza sativa L.) which were genotyped using 266 SSR markers. Large phenotypic variations in SRUE were found in the studied population. RESULTS:The average SRUE over 542 accessions across two years (2016 and 2017) was 0.52?mg.mg-?1, ranging from 0.22?mg.mg-1 to 0.93?mg.mg-?1, with a coefficient of variation of 22.66%. Overall, 2879 marker alleles were detected in the population by 266 pairs of SSR markers, indicating a large genetic variation existing in the population. Using general linear model method, 13 SSR marker loci associated with SRUE were detected and two (RM7309 and RM434) of the 13 loci, were also detected using mixed linear model analyses, with percentage of phenotypic variation explained (PVE) greater than 5% across two years. The 13 association loci (P?<?0.01) were located on all chromosomes except chromosome 11, with PVE ranging from 5.05% (RM5158 on chromosome 5) to 12% (RM297 on chromosome 1). Association loci RM7309 on chromosome 6 and RM434 on chromosome 9 revealed by both models were detected in both years. Twenty-three favorable alleles were identified with phenotypic effect values (PEV) ranging from 0.10?mg.mg-?1 (RM7309-135?bp on chromosome 9) to 0.45?mg.mg-?1 (RM297-180?bp on chromosome 2). RM297-180?bp showed the largest phenotypic effect value (0.44?mg.mg-?1 in 2016 and 0.45?mg.mg-?1 in 2017) with 6.72% of the accessions carrying this allele and the typical carrier accession was Manyedao, followed by RM297-175?bp (0.43?mg.mg-?1 in 2016 and 0.44?mg.mg-?1 in 2017). CONCLUSION:Nine novel association loci for SRUE were identified, compared with previous studies. The optimal parental combinations for pyramiding more favorable alleles for SRUE were selected and could be used for breeding rice accessions suitable for wet direct seeding in the future.

Project description:Rice is an important cereal in the world. The study of the genetic basis of important agronomic traits in rice landraces and identification of genes will facilitate the breed improvement. Gelatinization temperature (GT), gel consistency (GC) and pericarp color (PC) are important indices of rice cooking and eating quality evaluation and potential nutritional importance, which attract wide attentions in the application of genetic and breeding. To dissect the genetic basis of GT, GC and PC, a total of 419 rice landraces core germplasm collections consisting of 330 indica lines, 78 japonica lines and 11 uncertain varieties were planted, collected, then GT, GC, PC were measured for two years, and sequenced using specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq) technology. In this study, 261,385,070 clean reads and 56,768 polymorphic SLAF tags were obtained, which a total of 211,818 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were discovered. With 208,993 SNPs meeting the criterion of minor allele frequency (MAF) > 0.05 and integrity> 0.5, the phylogenetic tree and population structure analysis were performed for all 419 rice landraces, and the whole panel mainly separated into six subpopulations based on population structure analysis. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) was carried out for the whole panel, indica subpanel and japonica subpanel with subset SNPs respectively. One quantitative trait locus (QTL) on chromosome 6 for GT was detected in the whole panel and indica subpanel, and one QTL associated with GC was located on chromosome 6 in the whole panel and indica subpanel. For the PC trait, 8 QTLs were detected in the whole panel on chromosome 1, 3, 4, 7, 8, 10 and 11, and 7 QTLs in the indica subpanel on chromosome 3, 4, 7, 8, 10 and 11. For the three traits, no QTL was detected in japonica subpanel, probably because of the polymorphism repartition between the subpanel, or small population size of japonica subpanel. This paper provides new gene resources and insights into the molecular mechanisms of important agricultural trait of rice phenotypic variation and genetic improvement of rice quality variety breeding.

Project description:Grain minerals in rice, especially those in milled grains, are important sources of micro-nutrition elements, such as iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), manganese (Mn), copper (Cu), and selenium (Se), and of toxic heavy metal elements, especially cadmium (Cd), for populations consuming a rice diet. To date, the genetic mechanism underlying grain mineral concentrations (GMCs) in milled grain remains largely unknown. In this report, we adopted a set of 698 germplasms consisting of two subsets [indica/Xian (X-set) and japonica/Geng (G-set)], to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting GMC traits of Fe, Zn, Cd, Mn, Cu, and Se in milled grains. A total of 47 QTL regions, including 18 loci and 29 clusters (covering 62 Cd loci), responsible for the GMCs in milled grains were detected throughout the genome. A joint exploration of favorable haplotypes of candidate genes was carried out as follows: (1) By comparative mapping, 10 chromosome regions were found to be consistent with our previously detected QTL from linkage mapping. (2) Within eight of these regions on chromosomes 1, 4, 6, 7, and 8, candidate genes were identified in the genome annotation database. (3) A total of 192 candidate genes were then submitted to further haplotype analysis using million-scale single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from the X-set and the G-set. (4) Finally, 37 genes (19.3%) were found to be significant in the association between the QTL targeting traits and the haplotype variations by pair-wise comparison. (5) The phenotypic values for the haplotypes of each candidate were plotted. Three zinc finger (like) genes within two candidate QTL regions (qFe6-2 and qZn7), and three major GMC traits (Fe, Zn, and Cd) were picked as sample cases, in addition to non-exhausted cross validations, to elucidate this kind of association by trait value plotting. Taken together, our results, especially the 37 genes with favorable haplotype variations, will be useful for rice biofortification molecular breeding.
