MBKbase for rice: an integrated omics knowledgebase for molecular breeding in rice.

ABSTRACT: To date, large amounts of genomic and phenotypic data have been accumulated in the fields of crop genetics and genomic research, and the data are increasing very quickly. However, the bottleneck to using big data in breeding is integrating the data and developing tools for revealing the relationship between genotypes and phenotypes. Here, we report a rice sub-database of an integrated omics knowledgebase (MBKbase-rice, www.mbkbase.org/rice), which integrates rice germplasm information, multiple reference genomes with a united set of gene loci, population sequencing data, phenotypic data, known alleles and gene expression data. In addition to basic data search functions, MBKbase provides advanced web tools for genotype searches at the population level and for visually displaying the relationship between genotypes and phenotypes. Furthermore, the database also provides online tools for comparing two samples by their genotypes and finding target germplasms by genotype or phenotype information, as well as for analyzing the user submitted SNP or sequence data to find important alleles in the germplasm. A soybean sub-database is planned for release in 3 months and wheat and maize will be added in 1-2 years. The data and tools integrated in MBKbase will facilitate research in crop functional genomics and molecular breeding.

Project description:The interaction between the microbial communities in aquatic animals and those in the ambient environment is important for both healthy aquatic animals and the ecological balance of aquatic environment. Crayfish (Procambarus clarkii), with their high commercial value, have become the highest-yield freshwater shrimp in China. The traditional cultivation in ponds (i.e., monoculture, MC) and emerging cultivation in rice co-culture fields (i.e., rice-crayfish co-culture, RC) are the two main breeding modes for crayfish, and the integrated RC is considered to be a successful rice-livestock integration practice in eco-agricultural systems. This study explored the ecological interactions between the microbial communities in crayfish intestine and the ambient environment, which have not been fully described to date. The bacterial communities in crayfish intestine, the surrounding water, and sediment in the two main crayfish breeding modes were analyzed with MiSeq sequencing and genetic networks. In total, 53 phyla and 1,206 genera were identified, among which Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Tenericutes, Firmicutes, Cyanobacteria, Chloroflexi, Bacteroidetes, Acidobacteria, RsaHF231, and Nitrospirae were the dominant phyla. The microbiota composition significantly differed between the water, sediment, and crayfish intestine, while it did not between the two breeding modes. We also generated a co-occurrence correlation network based on the high-confidence interactions with Spearman correlation ρ ≥ 0.75. In the genera co-correlation network, 95 nodes and 1,158 edges were identified, indicating significant genera interactions between crayfish intestine and the environment. Furthermore, the genera clustered into three modules, based on the different environments. Additionally, Candidatus_Bacilloplasma, g_norank_f_Steroidobacteraceae, Dinghuibacter, Hydrogenophaga, Methyloparacoccus, and Defluviicoccus had the highest betweenness centrality and might be important in the interaction between crayfish and the ambient environment. Overall, this study enhances our understanding of the characteristics of the microbiota in crayfish and their surrounding environment. Moreover, our findings provide insights into the microecological balance in crayfish eco-agricultural systems and theoretical reference for the development of such systems.

Project description:Breeding high yielding water-deficit tolerant rice is considered a primary goal for achieving the objectives of the sustainable development goals, 2030. However, evaluating the performance of the pre-breeding-promising parental-lines for water deficit tolerance prior to their incorporation in the breeding program is crucial for the success of the breeding programs. The aim of the current investigation is to assess the performance of a set of pre-breeding lines compared with their parents. To achieve this goal a set of 7 pre-breeding rice lines along with their parents (5 genotypes) were field evaluated under well-irrigated and water-stress conditions. Water stress was applied by flush irrigation every 12 days without keeping standing water after irrigation. Based on the field evaluation results, a pre-breeding line was selected to conduct physiological and expression analysis of drought related genes at the green house. Furthermore, a greenhouse trial was conducted in pots, where the genotypes were grown under well and stress irrigation conditions at seedling stage for physiological analysis and expression profiling of the genotypes. Results indicated that the pre-breeding lines which were high yielding under water shortage stress showed low drought susceptibility index. Those lines exhibited high proline, SOD, TSS content along with low levels of MDA content in their leaves. Moreover, the genotypes grain yield positively correlated with proline, SOD, TSS content in their leaves. The SSR markers RM22, RM525, RM324 and RM3805 were able to discriminate the tolerant parents from the sensitive one. Expression levels of the tested drought responsive genes revealed the upregulation of OsLEA3, OsAPX2, OsNAC1, OSDREB2A, OsDREB1C, OsZIP23, OsP5CS, OsAHL1 and OsCATA genes in response to water deficit stress as compared to their expression under normal irrigated condition. Taken together among the tested pre-breeding lines the RBL112 pre-breeding line is high yielding under water-deficit and could be used as donor for high yielding genes in the breeding for water deficit resistance. This investigation withdraws attention to evaluate the promising pre-breeding lines before their incorporation in the water deficit stress breeding program.
