[学术文献 ] Development of New Iso-Cytoplasmic Rice-Restorer Lines and New Rice Hybrids with Superior Grain Yield and Grain Quality Characteristics by Utilizing Restorers' Fertility Genes 进入全文

GENES

This research was carried out at the Experimental Farm of Sakha Agricultural Research Station, Sakha, Kafr El-Sheikh, Egypt, during the 2018-2020 rice-growing seasons to develop and evaluate four iso-cytoplasmic rice-restorer lines: NRL79, NRL80, NRL81, and NRL82, as well as Giza 178, with ten new hybrids in order to estimate genotypic coefficient, phenotypic coefficient, heritability in a broad sense, and advantage over Giza 178 as a check variety (control) of new restorer lines. This study also estimated combining ability, gene action, better-parent heterosis (BP), mid-parents heterosis (MP), and standard heterosis (SH) over Egyptian Hybrid one (IR69A x Giza 178) as a check hybrid (control) for grain yield, agronomic traits, and some grain quality characters in restorer lines and hybrids. The percentage of advantage over commercial-variety Giza 178 (check) was significant, and highly significant among the newly developed restorer fertility lines for all the studied traits. This indicates that the selection is a highly effective factor in improving these traits. New restorer fertility lines showed highly significant positive values over commercial restorer for grain yield; the values ranged from 51% for NRL80 to 100.4% for NRL82, respectively. Meanwhile, in regard to the grain shape of paddy rice, three lines of the promising lines showed highly significant negative desirable values compared with Giza 178; the values ranged from -7.7% for the NRL80 to -15.2% for NRL79, respectively. Based on the superiority of the new lines, the new lines can be used as new restorer fertility lines to breed promising new hybrids and new inbred rice lines or varieties. From the results of the testcross experiment, the four promising lines were identified as effective restorer fertility lines for two cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) lines. Moreover, the six rice hybrids showed values for SH heterosis of grain yield/plant of more than 15% over the check hybrid variety, with high values of 1000-grain weight and desirable grain shape; these hybrids were G46A x NRL81 (125.1%), G46A x NRL80 (66.9%), IR69A x NRL79 (47.2%), G46A x NRL79 (24.6%), IR69A x NRL81 (23.4%), and IR69A x NRL82 (16.2%).

[学术文献 ] Transcriptome and Metabolome Profiling Reveal the Resistance Mechanisms of Rice against Brown Planthopper 进入全文

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCES

Brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens Stal, BPH) is one of the most destructive insects affecting rice production. To better understand the physiological mechanisms of how rice responds to BPH feeding, we analyzed BPH-induced transcriptomic and metabolic changes in leaf sheaths of both BPH-susceptible and -resistant rice varieties. Our results demonstrated that the resistant rice reduced the settling, feeding and growth of BPH. Metabolic analyses indicated that BPH infestation caused more drastic overall metabolic changes in the susceptible variety than the resistant rice. Differently accumulated metabolites (DAMs) belonging to flavonoids were downregulated in the susceptible rice but upregulated in resistant variety. Transcriptomic analyses revealed more differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in susceptible rice than resistant rice, and DEGs related to stimulus were significantly upregulated in resistant rice but downregulated in susceptible rice. Combined analyses of transcriptome and metabolome showed that many DEGs and DAMs were enriched in phenylpropane biosynthesis, flavonoid biosynthesis, and plant hormone signal transduction. We conducted correlation analyses of DEGs and DAMs in these pathways and found a high correlation between DEGs and DAMs. Then, we found that the contents of endogenous indole 3-acetic acid (IAA) in resistant rice was lower than that of susceptible rice after BPH feeding, while the salicylic acid (SA) content was the opposite. For functional analysis, an exogenous application of IAA decreased rice resistance to BPH, but the exogenous application of SA increased resistance. In addition, biochemical assessment and quantitative PCR analysis showed that the lignin content of resistant accession was constitutively higher than in susceptible accession. By adding epigallocatechin, the substrate of anthocyanidin reductase (ANR), to the artificial diet decreased the performance of BPH. We first combined a transcriptome-metabolome-wide association study (TMWAS) on rice resistance to BPH in this study. We demonstrated that rice promoted resistance to BPH by inducing epigallocatechin and decreasing IAA. These findings provided useful transcriptomic and metabolic information for understanding the rice-BPH interactions.

[学术文献 ] Identification and Analysis of Genes Involved in Double Fertilization in Rice 进入全文

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCES

Double fertilization is a key determinant of grain yield, and the failure of fertilization during hybridization is one important reason for reproductive isolation. Therefore, fertilization has a very important role in the production of high-yield and well-quality hybrid of rice. Here, we used RNA sequencing technology to study the change of the transcriptome during double fertilization with the help of the mutant fertilization barrier (feb) that failed to finish fertilization process and led to seed abortion. The results showed that 1669 genes were related to the guided growth of pollen tubes, 332 genes were involved in the recognition and fusion of the male-female gametes, and 430 genes were associated with zygote formation and early free endosperm nuclear division. Among them, the genes related to carbohydrate metabolism; signal transduction pathways were enriched in the guided growth of pollen tubes, the genes involved in the photosynthesis; fatty acid synthesis pathways were activated by the recognition and fusion of the male-female gametes; and the cell cycle-related genes might play an essential role in zygote formation and early endosperm nuclear division. Furthermore, among the 1669 pollen tube-related genes, it was found that 7 arabinogalactan proteins (AGPs), 1 cysteine-rich peptide (CRP), and 15 receptor-like kinases (RLKs) were specifically expressed in anther, while 2 AGPs, 7 CRPs, and 5 RLKs in pistil, showing obvious unequal distribution which implied they might play different roles in anther and pistil during fertilization. These studies laid a solid foundation for revealing double fertilization mechanism of rice and for the follow-up investigation.

[学术文献 ] Creation of Two-Line Fragrant Glutinous Hybrid Rice by Editing the Wx and OsBADH2 Genes via the CRISPR/Cas9 System 进入全文

International Journal of Molecular Sciences

Global food security has benefited from the development and promotion of the two-line hybrid rice system. Excellent eating quality determines the market competitiveness of hybrid rice varieties based on achieving the fundamental requirements of high yield and good adaptability. Developing sterile and restorer lines with improved quality for two-line hybrid breeding by editing quality genes with clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/Cas9 is an efficient and practical alternative to the lengthy and laborious process of conventional breeding to improve rice quality. We edited Wx and OsBADH2 using CRISPR/Cas9 technology to produce both homozygous male sterile mutant lines and homozygous restorer mutant lines with Cas9-free. These mutants have a much lower amylose content while having a significantly higher 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline aroma content. Based on this, a fragrant glutinous hybrid rice was developed without too much effect on most agronomic traits. This study demonstrates the use of CRISPR/Cas9 in creating two-line fragrant glutinous hybrid rice by editing the components of the male sterile and the restorative lines.

[前沿资讯 ] 专家研究组挖掘到能够提高草产量和耐镉性的双效基因PvBiP2 进入全文

南京农业大学

 我国南方铅、锌及钨矿的矿区及周边土地面临较为严峻的土壤镉(Cd)污染问题。用根系发达的植被覆盖污染土壤能够减少镉离子随降水等因素扩散到周边水源及土壤。柳枝稷是植株高大、根系发达的多年生禾草,其生物产量大,可作为优质能源植物和饲草。目前已有技术能够在柳枝稷生物质生物发酵过程中有效分离、无害化处理镉离子。因此,提高柳枝稷的镉耐性及其生物产量具有重要意义。近期,南京农业大学草业学院徐彬研究组和生科院蔡庆生教授合作在Journal of Hazardous Materials在线发表了题为“Overexpression of PvBiP2 improved biomass yield and cadmium tolerance in switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.)”的研究性论文。该团队在前期研究中发现Cd胁迫导致柳枝稷的内质网胁迫响应,其中有4个内质网定位分子伴侣蛋白(BiP2s)和23个热机转录因子(HSFs)均受到Cd胁迫上调表达。利用Cd敏感酵母突变体对上述BiPs和HSFs进行筛选,发现PvBiP2和PvHSF4均能提高酵母的镉耐性。在镉胁迫和ER-胁迫诱导剂(DTT)的处理下,PvBiP2表达量上调,且PvBiP2启动子中存在HSE元件。利用Y1H及体内激活实验证明PvHSF4能够识别并激活PvBiP2的表达。在柳枝稷中过量表达PvBiP2不仅有效提高了柳枝稷的镉耐性,导致更高的镉积累量(提高90-140%)及较低的镉迁移效率(降低46-57%),还显著提高了柳枝稷的生物产量(提高40-45%)。因此PvHSF4-PvBiP2分子模块可有效提高柳枝稷的镉耐性,PvBiP2具有提高植物镉耐性和生物产量的“双效作用”,可作为柳枝稷及其他植物遗传改良的优质目标基因加以开发利用。

[学术文献 ] Breeding of the Long-Grain Restorer of Indica-Japonica Hybrid Rice by Using the Genetic Effects of Grain Shape QTLs 进入全文

Agronomy

Grain shape improvement, which determines grain yield, quality traits and commercial value, is an extremely important aspect of rice breeding. Grain size is controlled by multiple genes, and Maker Assistant Selection (MAS) breeding is effective for breeders in developing stable and efficient markers to aggregate these genes in order to speed up the selection of new lines with desirable traits during the breeding process. In this study, functional markers were developed based on the sequence differences of five grain-shaped genes (GL7, GW6a, GS6, GW5 and TGW6) between the long-grain japonica rice variety Zhendao and the indica-japonica restorer R2027. We then constructed a population of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) based on their cross. The newly designed functional markers were used to genotype grain-size genes, and a genetic effect analysis was conducted to screen high-quality long-grain restorers. Our results reveal diverse effects of different genes on grain size, and the five genotypes were distributed in the 36 selected BC1F8 lines. Specifically, gw5 positively regulates grain width and 1000-grain weight, gl7 and gs6 positively regulate grain length but negatively regulate grain width and 1000-grain weight, tgw6 positively regulates grain length and gw6a positively regulates 1000-grain weight. The most outstanding outcome is that 5 of the 36 lines achieved in this study showing an excellent performance of long grain and yield characters are ideal materials not only for studying the interaction and genetic effects between polygenes but also as restorers or donors for dominant genes in indica-japonica hybrid rice breeding.
