Genetic analysis and molecular mapping of a novel gene for zebra mutation in rice （Oryza sativa L.）

A novel zebra mutant, zebra-15, derived from the restorer line JinhuilO （Oryza sativa L. ssp. indica） treated by EMS, displayed a distinctive zebra leaf from seedling stage to jointing stage. Its chlorophyll content decreased （55.4%） and the ratio of Chla/Chlb increased （90.2%） significantly in the yellow part of the zebra-15, compared with the wild type. Net photosynthetic rate and fluorescence kinetic parameters showed that the decrease of chlorophyll content significantly influenced the photosynthetic efficiency of the mutant. Genetic analysis of F2 segregation populations derived from the cross of XinonglA and zebra-15 indicated that the zebra leaf trait is controlled by a single recessive nuclear gene. Ninety-eight out of four hundred and eighty pairs of SSR markers showed the diversity between the XinonglA and the zebra-15, their F2 population was then used for gene mapping. Zebra-15 （Z-15） gene was primarily restricted on the short arm of chromosome 5 by 150 F2 recessive individuals, 19.6 cM from marker RM3322 and 6.0 cM from marker RM6082. Thirty-six SSR markers were newly designed in the restricted location, and the Z-15 was finally located between markers nSSR516 and nSSR502 with the physical region 258 kb by using 1,054 F2 recessive individuals.

Genetic analysis and molecular mapping of a nuclear recessive male sterility gene, ms91(t), in rice.

Mutations that result in plant male sterility provide means not only to probe reproductive development but also to facilitate commercial heterosis application and hybrid seed production. In this study, we report a novel male sterility gene, ms91(t), in a spontaneous mutant line (SH38) from a Chinese rice cultivar (Oryza sativa subsp. japonica 'Jijing14'). The sterility of SH38 was studied by examining its progenies derived from crosses with 6 japonica cultivars. Corresponding F2 populations were obtained by selfing each of the 6 F1s and a backcross population was produced by crossing SH38 to the F1 of SH38 x C18. Our results revealed that SH38 has normal agronomic traits but produces no pollen grains. Segregations of male-sterile and male-fertile progenies in the F2 and backcross populations fit well with ratios of 3:1 and 1:1, respectively, indicating that ms91(t) is a single recessive gene. Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis of SH38 and Jijing14 plants showed the presence of a unique band in SH38. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) analysis of the bulked and individual progenies of the F2 population of SH38 x C18 showed linkage of ms91(t) with the SSR marker RM5853 on chromosome 1. Subsequently, ms91(t) was fine-mapped to the interval between markers RM7075 (3.75 cM) and RM5638 (3.57 cM). Our results would facilitate the isolation of ms91(t) and male sterility in heterosis application.     

Genetic analysis and mapping of gene fzp(t) controlling spikelet differentiation in rice

Monocots and dicots have diverged for 120 million years. The floral morpha of cereals isunique and much different from that of dicot plants. Nevertheless, it has been found that most genes controlling flower development share a conserved sequence called MADS-box[1]. Therefore,it is likely that monocots and dicots could have similar basic characteristics of flower developmentbut the mechanisms of genetic regulation for flowering induction and floral differentiation might be different[2,3].

Genetic analysis and mapping of gene fzp(t) controlling spikelet differentiation in rice

A mutant of spikelet differentiation in rice called frizzle panicle (fzp) was discovered in the progeny of a cross between Oryza sativa ssp. indica cv. V20B and cv. Hua1B. The mutant exhibits normal plant morphology but has apparently fewer tillers. The most striking change in fzp is that its spikelet differentiation is completely blocked, with unlimited subsequent rachis branches generated from the positions where spikelets normally develop in wild-type plants. Genetic analysis suggests that fzp is controlled by a single recessive gene, which is temporarily named fzp (t). Based on its mutant phenotype, fzp (t) represents a key gene controlling spikelet differentiation. Some F2 mutant plants derived from various genetic background appeared as the "middle type", suggesting that the action of fzp (t) is influenced by the presence of redundant, modifier or interactive genes. By using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and bulked segregant analysis (BSA) method, fzp (t) gene was mapped in the terminal region of the long arm of chromosome 7, with RM172 and RM248 on one side, 3.2 cM and 6.4 cM from fzp (t), and RM18 and RM234 on the other side, 23.1 cM and 26.3 cM from fzp(t), respectively. These results will facilitate the positional cloning and function studies of the gene.     

水稻(Oryza sativa L.)苗期低温白化突变体al12的超微结构与基因定位

水稻苗期低温白化突变是水稻在发育早期对低温胁迫的一种适应性,是一种受发育和温度控制的条件表达,它与其他水稻白化突变有本质的不同.本研究利用便携式叶绿素测量仪测定了白化时期植株的叶绿素含量和用透射电镜观察了叶绿体的结构变化.结果发现叶绿素平均含量仅为1.2(SPAD),而叶绿体也不能正常发育仅有囊泡状结构.通过与9311的正反交实验及子代的分离表现证明该性状受一个隐性核基因的控制.另外利用SSR分子标记技术将该基因定位在第8染色体上,两侧最近的SSR标记RM5068和RM3702分别距基因0.5～1.1 cM和4.9 cM,基因被定位在约6个cM的区间内.我们将该基因暂时命名为al12.     

Characterization of a novel high-tillering dwarf 3 mutant in rice

Tiller number and culm length are important components of plant architecture and determinate grain production in rice.A line SIL046,derived from an introgression lines population developed by an accession of common wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.) and a high-yielding indica cultivar Guichao 2 (Oryza sativa L.).exhibits a higher tiller number and shorter culm length phenotype than the recipient parent Guichao 2 (GC2).Genetic analysis showed that the high-tillering dwarf phenotype was controlled by a novel single recessive gene,referred to as the high-tillering dwarf3 (htd3),which located within the genetic distance of 13.4 cM between SSR makers RM7003 and RM277 on chromosome 12.By means of fine-mapping strategy,we mapped HTD3 gene within the genetic distance of 2.5 cM and the physical distance of 3100 kb in the centromere of chromosome 12.Further identification of HTD3 gene would provide a new opportunity to uncover the molecular mechanism of the development of culm and tiller,two important components of yields in rice.     

萍乡显性核不育水稻育性相关基因的定位和遗传分析

萍乡显性核不育水稻(Pingxiang Dominant Genic Male Sterile Rice,PDGMSR)是在水稻中首次发现的显性核不育材料,其育性由两对显性基因互作控制,一对是萍乡显性核不育基因Ms-p,另一对是显性上位恢复基因(dominant epistatic fertility restorer gene,Rfe)。两者共同存在时显性上位恢复基因能抑制不育基因的表达,从而使育性表现可育。本实验用一个对萍乡显性核不育水稻有恢复能力的水稻品种E823与萍乡显性核不育水稻配制杂交组合,将(萍乡核不育水稻/E823)F2作为定位群体,根据F3株系的育性分离,选择育性分离株系对应F2单株(基因型为Ms-pMs-pRefrfe和Ms-pms-pRferfe)构建可育池,用对应F2株系中的不育单株(基因型为Ms-pMs-prferfe或Ms-pms-prferfe)构建不育池,将显性上位恢复基因Rfe定位在水稻10染色体RM311和RM3152一侧,遗传距离分别为7.9cM和3.6cM。根据已有的Ms-p的定位结果,合成10染色体部分微卫星引物,对不育单株进行分析,发现RM171和RM6745位于Ms-p的两侧,距离分别为0.3cM和3.0cM。根据10染色体的测序结果,将Ms-p界定在约730kb的范围内,并构建了Ms-p的电子重叠群。植物显性核不育的育性恢复机理存在“复等位基因”和“显性上位互作”两种假说,贺浩华等用经典的遗传学方法证明了萍乡显性核不育水稻育性恢复的遗传机理属于“显性上位互作”。理论上认为,确定其遗传机理最为有效的方法是基因定位,如果不育基因和恢复基因位于同一位点,则其遗传机理属于“复等位基因”,否则为“显性上位互作”。本实验将不育基因和恢复基因定位在水稻10染色体不同的位点,用基因定位的方法证实了萍乡显性核不育水稻育性恢复的遗传机理属于“显性上位互作”。     

水稻苗期低温失绿的遗传分析及基因定位

在早季低温条件下, 籼稻品种Dular的幼苗表现出白化失绿, 而粳稻品种Lemont幼苗表现正常绿色。以Lemont和Dular作亲本构建一个F2群体,通过该群体在早季低温条件下性状的表现,发现Lemont和Dular苗期耐冷性的差异受单个主基因控制,低温下白化失绿等位基因为隐性。将该基因暂时命名为cisc(t)。利用该F2群体,采用集团分离分析(BSA)法将cisc(t)定位在9号染色体上。经过对F2群体中100个典型的白化单株的简单序列长度多态性分析,将该基因定位在5.5 cM的区间内,分别与微卫星标记RM257和RM242相距3.9 cM和1.6 cM。

Distorted Segregations of RFLP Markers and Their Distribution on Chromosomes in an indica/japonica F2 Population of Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

he segregation ratio of RFLP markers in an F2 population from indica "Zhaiyeqing 8” and japonica "Jingxi 17' of rice (Oryza sativa L., 2n= 24) was studied using 54 RFLP markers distributed on 12 chromosomes. Distorted segregation was found in 25.9% of the marker tested, which was indicated by significant deviation from the expected Mendelian segregation ratio ( I: 2: 1) at 5% or 1% level. Among the three RFLP genotypes of the F2 population “Zhaiyeqing” 8 genotype was significantly more than the expected, and its gene frequency was up to 52.1 %. Three positions for distorted segregation were found on chromosome 3 (RG227-RG369), 7 (RG678-RG511-RG528) and 12 (RG463-RG323). These positions could be related to gametophyte loci responsible for the distortion.     

特矮稻ED基因的遗传定位和分析

赤霉素（GA3）鉴定表明,一种新型特矮稻（命名为‘特矮稻-2’）的GA3信号转导途径正常,施加外源GA3不能恢复到正常植株的高度,说明此种矮稻的矮化机制与GA3无关。来源于组合‘特矮稻-2’ב日本晴’的F2群体的遗传分析表明,‘特矮稻-2’的特矮性状受1对隐性基因控制。采用SSR分子标记,将该矮秆基因定位于第12染色体上的RM519和RM235标记之间,遗传距离分别为15.9和22.0cM,该基因暂命名为ED。     

Genetic Mapping of Rice Using RFLP Markers and a Double Haploid Population of a Cross Between indica and japonica Varieties

A genetic linkage map of rice was constructed using a double haploid (DH) population from "Gui 630” (Oryza sativa subsp, indica)/"02428" (O. sativa subsp, japonica, wide compatibility variety) and RFLP markers. It consists of 233 loci and covers rice genomes about 2070 cM (centimorgan), and compares well with the other published rice maps. 25 RFLP markers, 2 telomeres and sh-2 (shattering ability) gene were first located on the molecular map of rice. RFLPs between "Gui 630' and "02428' mainly came from base substitution and a few DNA construction variance, not distributed evenly among chromosomes and on chromosome. This was probably resulted from the difference genetic stability among chromosomes and regions, in exchanging recombination ability in different segments of chromosome.     

水稻小穗特征基因FZP的图位克隆

FZP是水稻中控制小穗分化的一个关键基因,先前已将它定位在第7染色体上。通过进一步对该基因进行精细定位和图位克隆,找到2个SSR标记NRM6和NRM8,将该基因锁定在一个遗传距离为1．2cM的范围内(两标记与目标基因的遗传距离分别为0．2cM和1．0cM),相应的物理距离为144kb。发现在预期的目标基因位置,存在一个具有类似AP2结构域的基因。已知AP2是一个控制植物花发育的重要基因。因此,这个基因应是FZP的一个候选基因。PCR扩增结果显示,突变体中该基因有一个大约4kb的插人片段,与向共分离。由此可以初步认为,该基因就是FZP。     

一个新的水稻白化转绿突变体的生理特性和基因定位

秋丰M来源于粳稻秋丰的自然白化转绿突变株。其主要特征为前三叶白化带绿,第四叶及以后叶片均为淡绿色,抽穗时,秋丰M的颖壳和前三叶一样仍出现带绿的白化现象。不同生长时期对野生型和突变型水稻叶片色素含量测定的结果与田间观察结果一致,秋丰M确实存在着一个叶色显著变化的过程。主要农艺性状的比较结果表明,秋丰与秋丰M除穗颈长和千粒重达到极显著差异外,其他农艺性状均无明显差异。遗传分析发现该突变性状受一对隐性核基因控制。以209株培矮64S×秋丰M F_2的隐性突变个体为定位群体,将突变基因定位在水稻第2染色体长臂上,位于 SSR 标记RM475和RM2-22之间,其遗传距离分别为17.3 cM和2.9 cM,并将该基因命名为gra_(t)。     

水稻多分蘖突变体ht1的遗传分析和分子定位

Characterization and Fine Mapping of a Novel Rice Narrow Leaf Mutant nal9

A narrow leaf mutant was isolated from transgenic rice （Oryza sativa L.） lines carrying a T-DNA insertion. The mutant is characterized by narrow leaves during its whole growth period, and was named nal9 （narrow leaf 9）. The mutant also has other phenotypes, such as light green leaves at the seedling stage, reduced plant height, a small panicle and increased tillering. Genetic analysis revealed that the mutation is controlled by a single recessive gene. A hygromycin resistance assay showed that the mutation was not caused by T-DNA insertion, so a map-based cloning strategy was employed to isolate the nal9 gene. The mutant individuals from the F2 generations of a cross between the nal9mutant and Longtepu were used for mapping. With 24 F2 mutants, the nal9 gene was preliminarily mapped near the marker RM156 on the chromosome 3. New INDEL markers were then designed based on the sequence differences between japonica and indica at the region near RM156. The nal9 gene was finally located in a 69.3 kb region between the markers V239B and V239G within BAC OJ1212_C05 by chromosome walking. Sequence and expression analysis showed that an ATP-dependent CIp protease proteolytic subunit gene （CIpP） was most likely to be the nal9 gene. Furthermore, the nal9 mutation was rescued by transformation of the CIpP cDNA driven by the 35S promoter. Accordingly, the CIpP gene was identified as the NAL9 gene. Our results provide a basis for functional studies of NAL9 in future work.
