Genome-wide association study and gene network analyses reveal potential candidate genes for high night temperature tolerance in rice.

ABSTRACT: High night temperatures (HNT) are shown to significantly reduce rice (Oryza sativa L.) yield and quality. A better understanding of the genetic architecture of HNT tolerance will help rice breeders to develop varieties adapted to future warmer climates. In this study, a diverse indica rice panel displayed a wide range of phenotypic variability in yield and quality traits under control night (24 °C) and higher night (29 °C) temperatures. Genome-wide association analysis revealed 38 genetic loci associated across treatments (18 for control and 20 for HNT). Nineteen loci were detected with the relative changes in the traits between control and HNT. Positive phenotypic correlations and co-located genetic loci with previously cloned grain size genes revealed common genetic regulation between control and HNT, particularly grain size. Network-based predictive models prioritized 20 causal genes at the genetic loci based on known gene/s expression under HNT in rice. Our study provides important insights for future candidate gene validation and molecular marker development to enhance HNT tolerance in rice. Integrated physiological, genomic, and gene network-informed approaches indicate that the candidate genes for stay-green trait may be relevant to minimizing HNT-induced yield and quality losses during grain filling in rice by optimizing source-sink relationships.

Genome-wide association study reveals candidate genes related to low temperature tolerance in rice (Oryza sativa) during germination.

Project description:In this study, relative germination percentage (RGP) and delayed mean germination time (DMGT) were measured in various rice accessions at the germination stage and carried out association analysis to identify candidate genes related to low temperature germination (LTG) using a natural population comprising 137 rice cultivars and inbred lines selected from the Korean rice core set. Genome-wide association study using ~ 1.44 million high-quality SNPs, which were identified by re-sequencing all rice collections, revealed 48 candidate genes on chromosome 10 and 55 candidate genes on chromosome 11 in the high peak SNP sites of associated loci for RGP and DMGT, respectively. By detecting highly associated variations located inside genic regions and performing functional annotation of the genes, we detected 23 candidate genes for RGP and 18 genes for DMGT for LTG. In addition, the haplotype and sequence analysis of the candidate gene (Os10g0371100) with RGP trait and the candidate gene (Os11t0104240-00) with DMGT revealed correlation between sequences of functional variations and phenotypes. Several novel LTG-related candidate genes previously were known for the function during rice germination and uncovered their substantial natural variations. These candidate genes represent valuable resources for molecular breeding and genetic improvement of cold tolerance during rice germination.

Differentiation of the High Night Temperature Response in Leaf Segments of Rice Cultivars with Contrasting Tolerance.

Project description:High night temperatures (HNT) affect rice yield in the field and induce chlorosis symptoms in leaves in controlled chamber experiments. However, little is known about molecular changes in leaf segments under these conditions. Transcript and metabolite profiling were performed for leaf segments of six rice cultivars with different HNT sensitivity. The metabolite profile of the sheath revealed a lower metabolite abundance compared to segments of the leaf blade. Furthermore, pre-adaptation to stress under control conditions was detected in the sheath, whereas this segment was only slightly affected by HNT. No unique significant transcriptomic changes were observed in the leaf base, including the basal growth zone at HNT conditions. Instead, selected metabolites showed correlations with HNT sensitivity in the base. The middle part and the tip were most highly affected by HNT in sensitive cultivars on the transcriptomic level with higher expression of jasmonic acid signaling related genes, genes encoding enzymes involved in flavonoid metabolism and a gene encoding galactinol synthase. In addition, gene expression of expansins known to improve stress tolerance increased in tolerant and sensitive cultivars. The investigation of the different leaf segments indicated highly segment specific responses to HNT. Molecular key players for HNT sensitivity were identified.

Genome-Wide Association Study Identified Candidate Genes for Alkalinity Tolerance in Rice.

Project description:Alkalinity stress is a major hindrance to enhancing rice production globally due to its damaging effect on plants' growth and development compared with salinity stress. However, understanding of the physiological and molecular mechanisms of alkalinity tolerance is limited. Therefore, a panel of indica and japonica rice genotypes was evaluated for alkalinity tolerance at the seedling stage in a genome-wide association study to identify tolerant genotypes and candidate genes. Principal component analysis revealed that traits such as alkalinity tolerance score, shoot dry weight, and shoot fresh weight had the highest contribution to variations in tolerance, while shoot Na+ concentration, shoot Na+:K+ ratio, and root-to-shoot ratio had moderate contributions. Phenotypic clustering and population structure analysis grouped the genotypes into five subgroups. Several salt-susceptible genotypes such as IR29, Cocodrie, and Cheniere placed in the highly tolerant cluster suggesting different underlying tolerance mechanisms for salinity and alkalinity tolerance. Twenty-nine significant SNPs associated with alkalinity tolerance were identified. In addition to three alkalinity tolerance QTLs, qSNK4, qSNC9, and qSKC10, which co-localized with the earlier reported QTLs, a novel QTL, qSNC7, was identified. Six candidate genes that were differentially expressed between tolerant and susceptible genotypes were selected: LOC_Os04g50090 (Helix-loop-helix DNA-binding protein), LOC_Os08g23440 (amino acid permease family protein), LOC_Os09g32972 (MYB protein), LOC_Os08g25480 (Cytochrome P450), LOC_Os08g25390 (Bifunctional homoserine dehydrogenase), and LOC_Os09g38340 (C2H2 zinc finger protein). The genomic and genetic resources such as tolerant genotypes and candidate genes would be valuable for investigating the alkalinity tolerance mechanisms and for marker-assisted pyramiding of the favorable alleles for improving alkalinity tolerance at the seedling stage in rice.

Differentiation of the high night temperature response in leaf segments of rice cultivars with contrasting tolerance

Project description:Transcript and metabolite profiling were performed in leaf segments (sheath, base, middle, tip) of six rice cultivars with different sensitivity to high night temperatures (HNT). On the phenotypic level, leaves of HNT-sensitive rice cultivars showed clear stress symptoms by chlorosis and necrosis while almost no leaf phenotype different from the control was observed for the tolerant varieties. The aim of this study was to identify molecular key-player for HNT-sensitivity causing leaf senescence.

Proteomic and Phosphoproteomic Analyses Reveal a Complex Network Regulating Pollen Abortion and Potential Candidate Proteins in TCMS Wheat.

Project description:Thermosensitive sterile lines are natural materials for exploring the effects of anther development on male fertility. To study the possible molecular mechanisms regulating protein activity during the induction of male sterility, proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses with tandem mass tags (TMTs) were used to study the binucleate anther of the thermosensitive sterile wheat line YS3038. A total of 9072 proteins, including 5019 phosphoproteins, were identified. Enrichment analyses of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) and phosphoproteins (DAPPs) in metabolic pathways showed that both were mainly related to energy metabolism. Soluble sugar and ATP content were significantly decreased, free fatty acid content was significantly increased, and ROS was abnormally accumulated in male sterile YS3038-A. In addition, 233 kinase-substrate pairs involved in potential phosphorylation control networks were predicted to regulate fertility. Candidate proteins were identified, and a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analysis was used to validate the TMT results. TaPDCD5 is likely to be involved in fertility conversion of YS3038 by barley stripe mosaic virus-induced gene silencing (BSMV-VIGS). Our data provide new insights into the mechanism of TCMS, which has value for identifying potential candidate proteins associated with the formation or abortion of pollen and promotion of wheat heterosis utilization.

Genome-Wide Association and RNA-Seq Analyses Reveal a Potential Candidate Gene Related to Oil Content in Soybean Seeds.

Project description:Soybean is a crucial crop globally, serving as a significant source of unsaturated fatty acids and protein in the human diet. However, further enhancements are required for the related genes that regulate soybean oil synthesis. In this study, 155 soybean germplasms were cultivated under three different environmental conditions, followed by phenotypic identification and genome-wide association analysis using simplified sequencing data. Genome-wide association analysis was performed using SLAF-seq data. A total of 36 QTLs were significantly associated with oil content (-log10(p) > 3). Out of the 36 QTLs associated with oil content, 27 exhibited genetic overlap with previously reported QTLs related to oil traits. Further transcriptome sequencing was performed on extreme high-low oil soybean varieties. Combined with transcriptome expression data, 22 candidate genes were identified (|log2FC| ≥ 3). Further haplotype analysis of the potential candidate genes showed that three potential candidate genes had excellent haplotypes, including Glyma.03G186200, Glyma.09G099500, and Glyma.18G248900. The identified loci harboring beneficial alleles and candidate genes likely contribute significantly to the molecular network's underlying marker-assisted selection (MAS) and oil content.

Rice yields decline with higher night temperature from global warming.

Project description:The impact of projected global warming on crop yields has been evaluated by indirect methods using simulation models. Direct studies on the effects of observed climate change on crop growth and yield could provide more accurate information for assessing the impact of climate change on crop production. We analyzed weather data at the International Rice Research Institute Farm from 1979 to 2003 to examine temperature trends and the relationship between rice yield and temperature by using data from irrigated field experiments conducted at the International Rice Research Institute Farm from 1992 to 2003. Here we report that annual mean maximum and minimum temperatures have increased by 0.35 degrees C and 1.13 degrees C, respectively, for the period 1979-2003 and a close linkage between rice grain yield and mean minimum temperature during the dry cropping season (January to April). Grain yield declined by 10% for each 1 degrees C increase in growing-season minimum temperature in the dry season, whereas the effect of maximum temperature on crop yield was insignificant. This report provides a direct evidence of decreased rice yields from increased nighttime temperature associated with global warming.

Identification of QTN and candidate genes for Salinity Tolerance at the Germination and Seedling Stages in Rice by Genome-Wide Association Analyses.

Project description:To facilitate developing rice varieties tolerant to salt stress, a panel of 208 rice mini-core accessions collected from 25 countries were evaluated for 13 traits associated with salt tolerance (ST) at the germination and seedling stages. The rice panel showed tremendous variation for all measured ST traits and eight accessions showing high levels of ST at either and/or both the germination and seedling stages. Using 395,553 SNP markers covering ~372 Mb of the rice genome and multi-locus mixed linear models, 20 QTN associated with 11 ST traits were identified by GWAS, including 6 QTN affecting ST at the germination stage and 14 QTN for ST at the seedling stage. The integration of bioinformatic with haplotype analyses for the ST QTN lets us identify 22 candidate genes for nine important ST QTN (qGR3, qSNK1, qSNK12, qSNC1, qSNC6, qRNK2, qSDW9a, qSST5 and qSST9). These candidate genes included three known ST genes (SKC1, OsTZF1 and OsEATB) for QTN qSNK1 qSST5 and qSST9. Candidate genes showed significant phenotypic differences in ST traits were detected between or among 2-4 major haplotypes. Thus, our results provided useful materials and genetic information for improving rice ST in future breeding and for molecular dissection of ST in rice.

Genome-wide association analyses reveal the genetic basis of combining ability in rice.

Project description:Combining ability is a measure for selecting elite parents and predicting hybrid performance in plant breeding. However, the genetic basis of combining ability remains unclear and a global view of combining ability from diverse mating designs is lacking. We developed a North Carolina II (NCII) population of 96 Oryza sativa and four male sterile lines to identify parents of greatest value for hybrid rice production. Statistical analyses indicated that general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) contributed variously to different agronomic traits. In a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of agronomic traits, GCA and SCA, we identified 34 significant associations (P < 2.39 × 10-7 ). The superior alleles of GCA loci (Ghd8, GS3 and qSSR4) accumulated in parental lines with high GCA and explained 30.03% of GCA variance in grain yield, indicating that molecular breeding of high GCA parental lines is feasible. The distinct distributions of these QTLs contributed to the differentiation of parental GCA in subpopulations. GWAS of SCA identified 12 more loci that showed dominance on corresponding agronomic traits. We conclude that the accumulation of superior GCA and SCA alleles is an important contributor to heterosis and QTLs that greatly contributed to combining ability in our study would accelerate the identification of elite inbred lines and breeding of super hybrids.

Mining candidate gene for rice aluminum tolerance through genome wide association study and transcriptomic analysis.

Project description:BACKGROUND:The genetic mechanism of aluminum (Al) tolerance in rice is great complicated. Uncovering genetic mechanism of Al tolerance in rice is the premise for Al tolerance improvement. Mining elite genes within rice landrace is of importance for improvement of Al tolerance in rice. RESULTS:Genome-wide association study (GWAS) performed in EMMAX for rice Al tolerance was carried out using 150 varieties of Ting's core collection constructed from 2262 Ting's collections with more than 3.8 million SNPs. Within Ting's core collection of clear population structure and kinship relatedness as well as high rate of linkage disequilibrium (LD) decay, 17 genes relating to rice Al tolerance including cloned genes like NRAT1, ART1 and STAR1 were identified in this study. Moreover, 13 new candidate regions with high LD and 69 new candidate genes were detected. Furthermore, 20 of 69 new candidate genes were detected with significant difference between Al treatment and without Al toxicity by transcriptome sequencing. Interestingly, both qRT-PCR and sequence analysis in CDS region demonstrated that the candidate genes in present study might play important roles in rice Al tolerance. CONCLUSIONS:The present study provided important information for further using these elite genes existing in Ting's core collection for improvement of rice Al tolerance.
