QTL Mapping and Candidate Gene Analysis for Seed Germination Response to Low Temperature in Rice.

ABSTRACT: Low temperature is a serious threat to the seed emergence of rice, which has become one of the main limiting factors affecting rice production in the world. It is of great significance to find the candidate genes controlling low-temperature tolerance during seed germination and study their functions for breeding new rice cultivars with immense low-temperature tolerance during seed germination. In the current experiment, 120 lines of the Cheongcheong Nagdong Double Haploid (CNDH) population were used for quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis of low-temperature germinability. The results showed a significant difference in germination under low different temperature (LDT) (15 °C, 20 °C) conditions. In total, four QTLs were detected on chromosome 3, 6, and 8. A total of 41 genes were identified from all the four QTLs, among them, 25 genes were selected by gene function annotation and further screened through quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Based on gene function annotation and level of expression under low-temperature, our study suggested the OsGPq3 gene as a candidate gene controlling viviparous germination, ABA and GA signaling under low-temperature. This study will provide a theoretical basis for marker-assisted breeding and lay the basis for further mining molecular mechanisms of low-temperature germination tolerance in rice.

Project description:Low-temperature germination ability (LTGA) is an important characteristic for spring sowing maize. However, few maize genes related to LTGA were confirmed, and the regulatory mechanism is less clear. Here, maize-inbred lines Ye478 and Q1 with different LTGA were used to perform transcriptome analysis at multiple low-temperature germination stages, and a co-expression network was constructed by weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Data analysis showed that 7964 up- and 5010 down-regulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of Ye478 were identified at low-temperature germination stages, while 6060 up- and 2653 down-regulated DEGs of Q1 were identified. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis revealed that ribosome synthesis and hydrogen peroxide metabolism were enhanced and mRNA metabolism was weakened under low-temperature stress for Ye478, while hydrogen peroxide metabolism was enhanced and mRNA metabolism was weakened for Q1. DEGs pairwise comparisons between the two genotypes found that Ye478 performed more ribosome synthesis at low temperatures compared with Q1. WGCNA analysis based on 24 transcriptomes identified 16 co-expressed modules. Of these, the MEbrown module was highly correlated with Ye478 at low-temperature stages and catalase and superoxide dismutase activity, and the MEred, MEgreen, and MEblack modules were highly correlated with Ye478 across low-temperature stages, which revealed a significant association between LTGA and these modules. GO enrichment analysis showed the MEbrown and MEred modules mainly functioned in ribosome synthesis and cell cycle, respectively. In addition, we conducted quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis based on a doubled haploid (DH) population constructed by Ye478 and Q1 and identified a major QTL explanting 20.6% of phenotype variance on chromosome 1. In this QTL interval, we found three, four, and three hub genes in the MEbrown, MEred, and MEgreen modules, of which two hub genes (Zm00001d031951, Zm00001d031953) related to glutathione metabolism and one hub gene (Zm00001d031617) related to oxidoreductase activity could be the candidate genes for LTGA. These biological functions and candidate genes will be helpful in understanding the regulatory mechanism of LTGA and the directional improvement of maize varieties for LTGA.
