The rice leaffolder (RLF), Cnaphalocrocis medinalis is an important pest of rice that causes severe damage in many areas of the world. The plants were transformed with fully
modified (plant codon optimized) synthetic Cry1C coding sequences as well as with the hpt and gus genes, coding for hygromycin phosphotransferase and β-glucuronidase, respectively. Cry1C sequences placed under the control of doubled 35S promoter plus the AMV leader sequence, and hpt and gus genes driven by cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter, were used in this study. Embryogenic calli after cocultivation with
Agrobacterium were selected on the medium containing hygromycin B. A total of 67 hygromycin-resistant plants were regenerated. PCR and
Southern blot analyses of primary transformants revealed the stable integration of Cry1C coding sequences into the rice genome with predominant single copy integration. R1 progeny plants disclosed a monogenic pattern (3:1) of transgene segregation as confirmed by molecular analyses. These transgenic
lines were highly resistant to rice leaffolder (RLF), Cnaphalocrocis medinalis as revealed by insect bioassay. 相似文献

The recessive mutation of the XANTHA gene (XNT) transforms seedlings and plants into a yellow color, visually distinguishable from normal (green) rice. Thus, it has been
introduced into male sterile lines as a distinct marker for rapidly testing and efficiently increasing varietal purity in
seed and paddy production of hybrid rice. To identify closely linked markers and eventually isolate the XNT gene, two mapping populations were developed by crossing the xantha mutant line Huangyu B (indica) with two wild type japonica varieties; a total of 1,720 mutant type F2 individuals were analyzed for fine mapping using polymorphic InDel markers and high dense microsatellite markers. The XNT gene was mapped on chromosome 11, within in a fragment of ~100 kb, where 13 genes are annotated. The NP_001067671.1 gene
within the delimited region is likely to be a candidate XNT gene, since it encodes ATP-dependent chloroplast protease ATP-binding subunit clp A. However, no sequence differences were
observed between the mutant and its parent. Bioinformatics analysis demonstrated that four chlorophyll deficient mutations
that were previously mapped on the same chromosome are located outside the XNT region, indicating XNT is a new gene. The results provide useful DNA markers not only for marker assisted selection of the xantha trait but also its eventual cloning. 相似文献

A genetic analysis of blast resistance in upland rice variety is very crucial. In this study, we performed a linkage mapping
of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for blast resistance using an advanced backcross population from a cross between Way Rarem
(susceptible indica variety) and Oryzica Llanos 5 (durable resistant indica variety). A transgressive segregation was observed in the advanced backcross population of Way Rarem//Oryzica Llanos 5. A
total of 16 QTLs have been identified along chromosomes 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 11 against eight blast pathogen isolates.
Each QTL accounted from 11.31 to 45.11% of the variation in blast resistance. Most QTLs showed race specificity, demonstrating
the small effect of such QTLs. Unexpectedly, several superior blast resistance alleles were contributed by Way Rarem, the
susceptible-recurrent parent. Among eight candidate defense response genes detected in several loci, a single gene (oxalate
oxidase) present on chromosome 3 was found to be associated with blast resistance in upland indica rice. Ultimately, these advanced backcross lines with resistance to blast tagged by markers might be useful for pyramiding
blast resistance alleles in upland rice. 相似文献

Molecular markers have been successfully used in rice breeding however available markers based on Oryza
sativa sequences are not efficient to monitor alien introgression from distant genomes of Oryza. We developed O. minuta (2n = 48, BBCC)-specific clones comprising of 105 clones (266–715 bp) from the initial library composed of 1,920 clones against
O. sativa by representational difference analysis (RDA), a subtractive cloning method and validated through Southern blot hybridization.
Chromosomal location of O. minuta-specific clones was identified by hybridization with the genomic DNA of eight monosomic alien additional lines (MAALs). The
37 clones were located either on chromosomes 6, 7, or 12. Different hybridization patterns between O. minuta-specific clones and wild species such as O. punctata, O. officinalis, O. rhizomatis, O. australiensis, and O. ridleyi were observed indicating conservation of the O. minuta fragments across Oryza spp. A highly repetitive clone, OmSC45 hybridized with O. minuta and O. australiensis (EE), and was found in 6,500 and 9,000 copies, respectively, suggesting an independent and exponential amplification of the
fragment in both species during the evolution of Oryza. Hybridization of 105 O. minuta specific clones with BB- and CC-genome wild Oryza species resulted in the identification of 4 BB-genome-specific and 14 CC-genome-specific clones. OmSC45 was identified as a fragment of RIRE1, an LTR-retrotransposon. Furthermore this clone was introgressed from O. minuta into the advanced breeding lines of O. sativa. 相似文献

Submergence is a major stress causing yield losses particularly in the direct-seeded rice cultivation system and necessitates
the development of a simple, rapid and reliable bioassay for a large scale screening of rice germplasms with tolerance against
submergence stress. We developed two new bioassay methods that were based primarily on the seedling vigor evaluated by the
ability of fast shoot elongation under submerged conditions, and compared their effectiveness with two other available methods.
All four bioassay methods using cultivars of 7 indica and 6 japonica types revealed significant and consistent cultivar differences in seedling vigor under submergence and/or submergence tolerance.
Japonica cultivars were more vigorous than indica cultivars, with Nipponbare being the most vigorous. The simplest test tube method showed the highest correlations to all
other methods. Our results suggest that seedling vigor serves as a submergence avoidance mechanism and confers tolerance on
rice seedlings to flooding during early crop establishment. A possible relationship is discussed between seedling vigor based
on fast shoot elongation and submergence tolerance defined by recovery from submergence stress. 相似文献

Grain protein content is an important analysis target to determine grain quality in rice. This study analyzed quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for the content of grain protein and amylose using the chromosomal segment substitution lines developed from ‘Koshihikari’ and ‘Nona Bokra’. It also evaluated the effects of target QTL on eating and cooking quality through the physical properties of cooked rice and its gel consistency. QTL analysis over 3 years detected the QTL on chromosome 12, TGP12, which consistently decreased total grain protein content via the ‘Nona Bokra’ allele. Selected CSSL with TGP12, CSSL-TGP12, showed a lower content of total grain protein in brown and milled rice, and had similar amylose content, grain size, and weight of brown rice, compared with ‘Koshihikari’. Based on the results of sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, brown rice with CSSL-TGP12 had no remarkable decrease or loss in any specific protein. Regarding eating and cooking quality, CSSL-TGP12 did not show stable effects on physical properties, hardness, stickiness, or adherability of cooked rice or its gel consistency. These results suggest that TGP12 could be one of the key genetic factors for the alteration of grain protein content without an effect on eating or cooking quality. 相似文献

We investigated changes in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant levels in rice (Oryza sativa L. cv ‘Dongjin’) seedlings treated with toxic cadmium (Cd) and/or sulfur (S). Exposure of rice seedlings to 30 μM Cd inhibited plant growth and resulted in increased levels of superoxide, hydrogen peroxide, and malondialdehyde (MDA), and induced Cd uptake by the roots, stems, and leaves. Application of S to Cd-stressed seedlings ameliorated Cd-induced oxidative stress by increasing the capacity of the glutathione (GSH)-ascorbate (AsA) cycle, promoting S assimilation by increasing cysteine, GSH, and AsA content in treated plants, and decreasing Cd transfer from the roots to the stems and leaves. Therefore, these results indicate that S application represents a viable strategy of alleviating Cd-induced growth inhibition and oxidative damage by restricting Cd translocation from the roots to the stems and leaves, thereby maintaining sufficient levels of GSH and AsA by sustaining homeostasis of the GSH-AsA cycle. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to develop diallel population hybrids by crossing selected germplasm and to determine the
gene effects and genetic control of yield and yield components using diallel analysis. A complete diallel including reciprocals
was made during 2003 and 2004 between five alfalfa cultivars of different geographic origin. For each pairwise cross, five
plants were chosen at random from each of the two cultivars (~100 florets per plant) to obtain the F1 generation. A spaced plant field was established in 2006 which included the five alfalfa cultivars (parents) and their 20
diallel hybrids (F1). The results of the diallel analysis suggest that the genetic control of major agronomic traits is determined by both additive
gene action (accumulation of frequency of desirable alleles represented by significant GCA effects) and nonadditive gene action
(complementary gene interactions represented by significant SCA effects). This type of gene action expression in alfalfa also
determines the way in which breeding is carried out and brings about changes in the methods used and has given rise to the
idea of the semi-hybrid breeding of this crop. The concept involves: breeding alfalfas within the population, identification
of heterotic germplasm, and the production of seed of the population hybrid (PH). 相似文献

Eighty-two varieties of rice from different regions in Thailand were selected to explore the Waxy (Wx)gene diversity and indica-japonica differentiation of chloroplast DNA. A comparison of the 5 splice site in the first intron was made between glutinous and nonglutinous rice. It revealed that non-glutinous with low-amylose content and glutinous rice were characterized as the Wxb allele based on the G-to-T base substitution, whereas non-glutinous rice with intermediate and high amylose carried the Wxa allele. Four Wx microsatellite alleles, (CT)n repeat, (n = 16,17,18 and 19) were found in glutinous rice. In contrast, non-glutinous rice showed five Wx microsatellite alleles (n = 11, 16, 17, 18 and 19). The (CT)17 allele was prominent allele in Thai population, while the (CT)11 allele was found only in intermediate and high amylose rice varieties from southern Thailand. Almost all of upland rice grown by various ethnic groups in northern Thailand were characterized as japonica type based on their having the PstI-12 fragment in their cpDNA, whereas most of rainfed lowland varieties from other regions of Thailand were indica. This exploration of DNA-based genetic markers is important, as it enhances our ability to describe and manipulate sources of genetic variation for rice breeding programs. 相似文献

The rice cultivar ‘Chumroo’ is commonly cultivated in the mid- and high-altitude areas of Bhutan. This cultivar has shown
durable blast resistance in that area, without evidence of breakdown, for over 20 years. Chumroo was inoculated with 22 blast
isolates selected from the race differential standard set of Japan. The cultivar showed resistance to all the isolates. To
identify the resistance gene(s), Chumroo was crossed with a susceptible rice cultivar, Koshihikari. The F1 plants of the cross showed resistance. Segregation analyses of 300 F3 family lines fitted the segregation ratio of 1:2:1 and indicated that a single dominant gene controls the resistance to a
blast isolate Ao 92-06-2 (race 337.1). The Chumroo resistance locus (termed Pi46(t)) was mapped between two SSR markers, RM6748 and RM5473, on the terminal region of the long arm of chromosome 4, using linkage analysis with SSR markers. The nearest marker, RM5473, was linked to the putative resistance locus at a map distance of 3.2 cM. At the chromosomal region, no true resistance genes
were identified, whereas two field resistance genes were present. Therefore, we designated Pi46(t) as a novel blast resistance locus. 相似文献

Two recombinant inbred line F10 rice populations (IAPAR-9/Akihikari and IAPAR-9/Liaoyan241) were used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for ten drought tolerance traits at the budding and early seedling stage under polyethylene glycol-induced drought stress, and two traits of leaf rolling index (LRI) and leaf withering degree (LWD) under field drought stress. The results showed that the drought-tolerance capacity of IAPAR-9 was stronger than that of Akihikari and Liaoyan241. Thirty-four QTLs for 12 drought tolerance traits were detected, and among them, in the IAPAR-9/Akihikari population, qLRI9-1 and qLRI10-1 for LRI were repeatedly detected in RM3600-RM553 on chromosome 9 and in RM6100-RM3773 on chromosome 10, respectively, at two times points of July 31 and August 13 in 2014. The two QTLs are stable against the environmental impact, and qLRI9-1 and qLRI10-1 explained 6.77–13.66% and 5.01–8.32% of the phenotypic variance, respectively, at the two times points. qLWD9-2 for LWD in the IAPAR-9/Liaoyan241 population contributed 8.73% of variation was detected in the same marker interval with the qLRI9-1, and qLRI1-1 for LRI and qLWD1-1 for LWD were located in the same marker interval RM11054-RM5646 on chromosome 1, which contributed 18.82 and 5.78% of phenotype variation respectively. qGV3 for germination vigor and qRGV3 for relative germination vigor at the budding stage were detected in the same marker interval RM426-RM570 on chromosome 3, which explained 14.98 and 16.30% of the observed phenotypic variation respectively, representing major QTLs. The above-mentioned stable or major QTLs regions could be useful for molecular marker assisted selection breeding, fine mapping, and cloning. 相似文献

To better understand the underlying mechanisms of agronomic traits related to drought resistance and discover candidate genes or chromosome segments for drought-tolerant rice breeding, a fundamental introgression population, BC3, derived from the backcross of local upland rice cv. Haogelao (donor parent) and super yield lowland rice cv. Shennong265 (recurrent parent) had been constructed before 2006. Previous quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping results using 180 and 94 BC3F6,7 rice introgression lines (ILs) with 187 and 130 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers for agronomy and physiology traits under drought in the field have been reported in 2009 and 2012, respectively. In this report, we conducted further QTL mapping for grain yield component traits under water-stressed (WS) and well-watered (WW) field conditions during 3 years (2012, 2013 and 2014). We used 62 SSR markers, 41 of which were newly screened, and 492 BC4F2,4 core lines derived from the fourth backcross between D123, an elite drought-tolerant IL (BC3F7), and Shennong265. Under WS conditions, a total of 19 QTLs were detected, all of which were associated with the new SSRs. Each QTL was only identified in 1 year and one site except for qPL-12-1 and qPL-5, which additively increased panicle length under drought stress. qPL-12-1 was detected in 2013 between new marker RM1337 and old marker RM3455 (34.39 cM) and was a major QTL with high reliability and 15.36% phenotypic variance. qPL-5 was a minor QTL detected in 2013 and 2014 between new marker RM5693 and old marker RM3476. Two QTLs for plant height (qPHL-3-1 and qPHP-12) were detected under both WS and WW conditions in 1 year and one site. qPHL-3-1, a major QTL from Shennong265 for decreasing plant height of leaf located on chromosome 3 between two new markers, explained 22.57% of phenotypic variation with high reliability under WS conditions. On the contrary, qPHP-12 was a minor QTL for increasing plant height of panicle from Haogelao on chromosome 12. Except for these two QTLs, all other 17 QTLs mapped under WS conditions were not mapped under WW conditions; thus, they were all related to drought tolerance. Thirteen QTLs mapped from Haogelao under WS conditions showed improved drought tolerance. However, a major QTL for delayed heading date from Shennong265, qDHD-12, enhanced drought tolerance, was located on chromosome 12 between new marker RM1337 and old marker RM3455 (11.11 cM), explained 21.84% of phenotypic variance and showed a negative additive effect (shortening delay days under WS compared with WW). Importantly, chromosome 12 was enriched with seven QTLs, five of which, including major qDHD-12, congregated near new marker RM1337. In addition, four of the seven QTLs improved drought resistance and were located between RM1337 and RM3455, including three minor QTLs from Haogelao for thousand kernel weight, tiller number and panicle length, respectively, and the major QTL qDHD-12 from Shennong265. These results strongly suggested that the newly screened RM1337 marker may be used for marker-assisted selection (MAS) in drought-tolerant rice breeding and that there is a pleiotropic gene or cluster of genes linked to drought tolerance. Another major QTL (qTKW-1-2) for increasing thousand kernel weight from Haogelao was also identified under WW conditions. These results are helpful for MAS in rice breeding and drought-resistant gene cloning. 相似文献

Crown rust, which is caused by Puccinia
coronata f. sp. avenae, P. Syd. & Syd., is the most destructive disease of cultivated oats (Avena
sativa L.) throughout the world. Resistance to the disease that is based on a single gene is often short-lived because of the extremely
great genetic diversity of P. coronata, which suggests that there is a need to develop oat cultivars with several resistance genes. This study aimed to identify
amplified fragment length polymorphism AFLP markers that are linked to the major resistance gene, Pc68, and to amplify the F6 genetic map from Pc68/5*Starter × UFRGS8. Seventy-eight markers with normal segregation were discovered and distributed in
12 linkage groups. The map covered 409.4 cM of the Avena
sativa genome. Two AFLP markers were linked in repulsion to Pc68: U8PM22 and U8PM25, which flank the gene at 18.60 and 18.83 centiMorgans (cM), respectively. The marker U8PM25 is located
in the linkage group 4_12 in the Kanota × Ogle reference oat population. These markers should be useful for transferring Pc68 to genotypes with good agronomic characteristics and for pyramiding crown rust resistance genes. 相似文献

Eighty-eight aromatic cultivars collected from Maharashtra state were assessed for determinants of kernel quality (kernel
size-shape, test weight and aroma) and grain morphology such as awning, lemma and palea characters, pubescence, colour of
sterile lemma and apiculus colour. We, report seven cultivars—‘Girga’, ‘Kothmirsal’, ‘Kala bhat’, ‘Chimansal’, ‘Jiri’, ‘Kalsal’
‘Velchi’ and ‘Kali kumud’ as indigenous to southern India. Of the 69 cultivars characterized for agronomic traits 36 cultivars
were exquisite genotypes and possessed one or more superior traits such as early flowering, dwarf stature, higher number of
productive tiller per plant; long panicles; higher number of filled grains per panicle and strong aroma. Variability in aromatic
cultivars was assessed on the basis of nine traits placed aromatic rice cultivars in five clusters. Number of cultivars in
each cluster ranged from 1 to 33. 27 significant correlations were obtained in the physical, agronomic and grain morphology
traits. Aroma was found to be negatively associated with days to 50% flowering as well as with filled grains per panicle.
However, correlation between panicle length and effective tillers with aroma was not observed. Therefore, to increase the
yield, improvement in length of panicle and increasing number of productive tillers in medium or mild scented cultivars would
be the best strategy. 相似文献

The Wild Abortive (WA) system is the major cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) source for hybrid rice production in indica rice and its fertility restoration is reported to be controlled by two major loci viz. Rf3 on chromosome 1 and Rf4 on chromosome 10. With the availability of the rice genome sequence, an attempt was made to fine map, develop candidate gene based markers for Rf3 and Rf4 and validate the developed marker system in a set of known restorer lines. Using polymorphic markers developed from microsatellite markers and candidate gene based markers from Rf3 and Rf4 loci, local linkage maps were constructed in two mapping populations of ~1,500 F2 progeny from KRH2 (IR58025A/KMR3R) and DRRH2 (IR68897A/DR714-1-2R) hybrids. QTLs and their interactions for fertility restoration in Rf3 and Rf4 loci were identified. The identified QTL in both mapping populations together explained 66–72 % of the phenotypic variance of the trait suggesting their utility in developing a marker system for identification of fertility restorers for WA-CMS. Sequence comparison of the two candidate genes from the Rf3 and Rf4 regions in male sterile (A) and restorer (R) lines showed 2–3 bp indels and a few substitutions in the Rf3 region and indels of 327 and 106 bp in the Rf4 region respectively. The marker system identified in the present study was validated in 212 restorers and 34 maintainers along with earlier reported markers for fertility restoration of WA-CMS. Together DRCG-RF4-14 and DRCG-RF4-8 for the Rf4 locus and DRRM-RF3-5/DRRM-RF3-10 for the Rf3 locus showed a maximum efficiency of 92 % for identification of restorers. 相似文献

Fine mapping of a quantitative trait locus, qFLL6.2, controlling flag leaf length (FLL) and yield traits in rice was conducted using four sets of near isogenic lines (NILs)
that were developed from a common residual heterozygote at F7 generation of the indica rice cross Zhenshan 97/Milyang 46. Each of the NIL sets consisted of 40 lines that are S1 progenies of ten maternal homozygotes, ten paternal homozygotes, and 20 heterozygotes differing in a portion of the 1.19-Mb
interval RM3414–RM6917 on the short arm of rice chromosome 6. Analysis of phenotypic differences among the three genotypic
groups in each NIL set delimited qFLL6.2 to a 62.1-kb region flanked by simple sequence repeat marker RM3414 and sequence-tagged site marker Si2944. This QTL explained
52.73% of the phenotypic variance, and the Zhenshan 97 allele increased FLL by 2.40 cm. Based on data collected from homozygous
lines of three of the NIL sets, qFLL6.2 was shown to have major effects on all the three yield traits analyzed, including the number of spikelets per panicle, the
number of filled grains per panicle, and grain weight per panicle. A comparison of the different groups revealed that the
effect of qFLL6.2 was highly consistent across different genetic backgrounds and environments, providing a good candidate for map-based cloning
and investigating the source–sink relationship in rice. 相似文献

We have identified a locus for asynchronous heading in rice. The length of heading period in a plant was measured as the indicator of asynchronous heading in 98 backcross inbred lines (BILs). These lines were derived using a single-seed descent method from a backcross of (japonica Nipponbare/indica Kasalath)/Nipponbare, and we used this mapping population in quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis. We located a single QTL related to asynchronous heading (qah7) in the region of R2401–C39 on chromosome 7, and its contribution to the total variation was 0.14 (r2), with the positive effect due to the Kasalath allele. A near isogenic line (NILah7) that carries a Kasalath chromosomal segment corresponding to qah7 in the Nipponbare genetic background was selected and analyzed to identify a locus for asynchronous heading. The length of heading period in NILah7 was significantly longer (P < 0.001) than that in Nipponbare. 相似文献

Rice seed storability is an important characteristic of seed quality so that the cultivars with strong seed storability are expected in the production of hybrid seeds. Presently, little is known about the genetic and physiological mechanisms controlling rice seed storability. In this study, a double haploid population derived from the cross between a japonica cultivar CJ06 and an indica cultivar TN1 was used to identify the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for seed germination percentage (GP) and fatty acid content (FA) during natural storage or artificial aging. A total of 19 QTLs, including ten QTLs for GP and nine QTLs for FA, were identified on nine chromosomes with the phenotypic variations ranged from 2.1 to 22.7%. Besides, six and three pairs of epistatic interactions were identified for GP and FA, respectively. Moreover, qGP-9, a QTL for germination percentage, was delimited in an interval of 92.8 kb between two STS markers P6 and P8, which contains 15 putative open reading frames. These results provide important information for understanding the genetic mechanisms on rice seed storability, and will be useful for breeding new rice varieties with high seed storability. 相似文献

Wild abortive (WA)-type cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) has been exclusively used for breeding three-line hybrid indica rice, but it has not been applied for generating japonica hybrids because of the difficulties related to breeding japonica restorer lines. Determining whether the major restorer-of-fertility (Rf) gene used for indica hybrids can efficiently restore the fertility of WA-type japonica CMS lines may be useful for breeding WA-type japonica restorer lines. In this study, japonica restorer lines for Chinsurah Boro II (BT)-type CMS exhibited varying abilities to restore the fertility of ‘WA-LiuqianxinA’, which is a WA-type japonica CMS line. Additionally, Rf genes for WA-type CMS were identified in the BT-type japonica restorers. Meanwhile, ‘C9083’, which is a BT-type japonica restorer, exhibited a limited ability to restore the fertility of WA-type japonica CMS lines, and a genetic analysis revealed that the fertility restoration was controlled by one locus. The Rf gene was mapped to an approximately 370-kb physical region and was identified as Rf4. Furthermore, Rf gene dosage effects and the temperature influenced the fertility restoration of WA-type japonica CMS lines. This study is the first to confirm that Rf4 has only minor effects on the fertility restoration of WA-type japonica CMS lines. These results may be relevant for the development of WA-type japonica hybrids. 相似文献

The Pi-z gene in rice confers resistance to a wide range of races of the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae. The objective of this study was to characterize Pi-z in 111 rice germplasm accessions using DNA markers and pathogenicity assays. The existence of Pi-z in rice germplasm was detected by using four simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers (RM527, AP4791, AP5659-1, AP5659-5) closely
linked to Pi-z, and was verified using pathogenicity assays with an avirulent strain (IE1k) and two virulent races (IB33 and IB49). Among
111 germplasm accessions evaluated, 73 were found to contain the Pi-z gene using both SSR markers and pathogenicity assays. The remaining 38 germplasm accessions were found to be inconsistent
in their responses to the blast races IB33, IEIk and IB49 with expected SSR marker alleles, suggesting the presence of unexpected
SSR alleles and additional R gene(s). These characterized germplasm can be used for genetic studies and marker-assisted breeding for improving blast resistance
in rice. 相似文献
