Developing a new rice variety requires tremendous efforts and years of input. To improve the defect traits of the excellent varieties becomes more cost and time efficient than breeding a completely new variety. Kongyu 131 is a high-performing japonica variety with early maturity, high yield, wide adaptability and cold resistance, but the poor-lodging resistance hinders the industrial production of Kongyu 131 in the Northeastern China. In this study, we attempted to improve the lodging resistance of Kongyu 131 from perspectives of both gene and trait. On the one hand, by QTL analysis and fine mapping we discovered the candidate gene loci. The following CRISPR/Cas9 and transgenic complementation study confirmed that Sd1 dominated the lodging resistance and favourable allele was mined for precise introduction and improvement. On the other hand, the Sd1 allelic variant was identified in Kongyu 131 by sequence alignment, then introduced another excellent allelic variation by backcrossing. Then, the two new resulting Kongyu 131 went through the field evaluation under different environments, planting densities and nitrogen fertilizer conditions. The results showed that the plant height of upgraded Kongyu 131 was 17%–26% lower than Kongyu 131 without penalty in yield. This study demonstrated a precise and targeted way to update the rice genome and upgrade the elite rice varieties by improving only a few gene defects from the perspective of breeding. 相似文献

Flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) seeds contain nearly 50% oil which is high in linolenic acid (an omega-3 fatty acid). In this study, a genetic linkage
map was constructed based on 114 expressed sequence tag-derived simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers in addition to five single
nucleotide polymorphism markers, five genes (fad2A, fad2B, fad3A, fad3B and dgat1) and one phenotypic trait (seed coat color), using a doubled haploid (DH) population of 78 individuals generated from a cross
between SP2047 (a yellow-seeded Solin™ line with 2–4% linolenic acid) and UGG5-5 (a brown-seeded flax line with 63–66% linolenic
acid). This map consists of 24 linkage groups with 113 markers spanning ~833.8 cM. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis
detected two major QTLs each for linoleic acid (LIO, QLio.crc-LG7, QLio.crc-LG16), linolenic acid (LIN, QLin.crc-LG7, QLin.crc-LG16) and iodine value (IOD, QIod.crc-LG7, QIod.crc-LG16), and one major QTL for palmitic acid (PAL, QPal.crc-LG9). The mutant allele of fad3A, mapped to the chromosomal segment inherited from the parent SP2047, underlies the QTL on linkage group 7 and was positively
associated with high LIO content but negatively associated with LIN and IOD. This fad3A locus accounted for approximately 34, 25 and 29% of the phenotypic variation observed in this DH population for these three
traits, respectively. The QTL localized on linkage group 16 explained approximately 20, 25 and 13% of the phenotypic variation
for these same traits, respectively. For palmitic acid, QPal.crc-LG9 accounted for ~42% of the phenotypic variation. This first SSR-based linkage map in flax will serve as a resource for mapping
additional markers, genes and traits, in map-based cloning and in marker-assisted selection. 相似文献

Understanding protein-protein interactions that occur between ACP and KS domains of polyketide synthases and fatty acid synthases is critical to improving the scope and efficiency of combinatorial biosynthesis efforts aimed at producing non-natural polyketides. Here, we report a facile strategy for rapidly reporting such ACP-KS interactions based on the incorporation of an amino acid with photocrosslinking functionality. Crucially, this photocrosslinking strategy can be applied to any polyketide or fatty acid synthase regardless of substrate specificity, and can be adapted to a high-throughput format for directed evolution studies. 相似文献

A conserved RNA recognition motif (RRM) domain of Brassica napus FCA improves cotton fiber quality and yield by regulating cell size 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Fan Sun Chuanliang Liu Chaojun Zhang Weiwei Qi Xueyan Zhang Zhixia Wu Depei Kong Qianhua Wang Haihong Shang Xiaoyin Qian Fuguang Li Jinshui Yang 《Molecular breeding : new strategies in plant improvement》2012,30(1):93-101
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) is an important crop that is used to produce both natural textile fiber and cottonseed oil. Cotton fiber is a unicellular trichome, whose length is critical to fiber quality and yield but difficult to modify. FCA was originally identified based on flowering time control in Arabidopsis. The function of the second RNA recognition motif (RRM) domain of Oryza sativa FCA in rice cell-size regulation has been previously reported, showing it to be highly conserved across dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous plants. The present study showed that the second RRM domain of Brassica napus FCA functioned in Gossypium hirsutum, leading to enlargement of multiple cell types, such as pollen, cotyledon petiole, and cotton fiber. In the resulting transgenic cotton, fiber length increased by ~10% and fiber yield per plant showed a dramatic increase, ranging from 35 to 66% greater than controls. Thus, this RRM domain may be a cell-size regulator and have great economic value in the cotton industry. 相似文献

Coronatine alleviates salinity stress in cotton by improving the antioxidative defense system and radical-scavenging activity 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Coronatine (COR) is a chlorosis-inducing phytotoxin that mimics some biological activities of methyl jasmonate. This study investigated whether COR confers salinity tolerance to cotton and whether such tolerance is correlated with changes in the activity of antioxidant enzymes. COR at 0.01muM was applied hydroponically to cotton seedlings at the two-leaf stage for 24h. A salinity stress of 150mM NaCl was imposed after completion of COR treatment for 15d. Salinity stress reduced biomass of seedlings and increased leaf superoxide radicals, hydrogen peroxide, lipid peroxidation, and electrolyte leakage. Activities of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), and glutathione reductase (GR), and of the stable free radical, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), scavenging activity were altered by salinity to varying degrees. Pretreatment with COR increased the activities of CAT, POD, GR, and DPPH scavenging activity in leaf tissues of salinity-stressed seedlings. Thus, COR might reduce the production of reactive oxygen species by activating antioxidant enzymes and DPPH-radical scavenging, thereby preventing membrane peroxidation and denaturation of bio-molecules. 相似文献

The pesticides carbendazim (CA), imidacloprid (IM), and thiophanate-methyl (TH) are used extensively in apple production. However, the presence of pesticide residues in apples has been associated with a wide range of human health hazards. To assess whether apples are safe to consume, evaluating their potential health risk is of great significance. We tested apples from two dominant apple-producing areas for the presence of pesticide residues and constructed a statistical model to evaluate their health risks. Of the three commonly used pesticides, thirty-two samples (11.3% of all tested samples) were residue-free and 231 (81.9%) contained CA residues, which was the most frequently detectable pesticide, followed by TH (52.1%) and IM (39.0%). All of the samples were below the maximum residue limits. The probabilistic assessment results indicated that the pesticide intake risks for kids (aged 2–6 years) and children (aged 7–13 years) were significantly higher than those of other groups, so that they were the vital monitoring objects. Our findings indicate that consumption of apples with these three pesticides does not pose a health threat for the population. Nevertheless, we recommend an investigation into continuous monitoring and stricter regulations on fruits' quality and safety throughout China. 相似文献
