Genome-Wide Analysis of Genetic Variations and the Detection of Rich Variants of NBS-LRR Encoding Genes in Common Wild Rice Lines

Abstract

Common wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.) is invaluable genetic resource for rice resistance breeding. Whole-genome re-sequencing was conducted to systematically analyze the variations in two new inbred lines (Huaye 3 and Huaye 4) developed from a common wild rice. A total of 4,841,127 SNPs, 1,170,479 InDels, 24,080 structural variations (SVs), and 298 copy number variations (CNVs) were identified in three materials. Approximately 16.24 and 5.64% of the total SNPs and InDels of Huaye 3 and Huaye 4 were located in genic regions, respectively. Together, 12,486 and 15,925 large-effect SNPs, and 12,417 and 14,513 large-effect InDels, which affect the integrity of the encoded protein, were identified in Huaye 3 and Huaye 4, respectively. The distribution map of 194 and 245 NBS-LRR encoding homologs was constructed across 12 rice chromosomes. Further, GO enrichment analysis of the homologs with identical genotype variations in Huaye 3 and Huaye 4 revealed 67, 82, and 58 homologs involved in cell death, response to stress, and both terms, respectively. Comparative analysis displayed that 550 out of 652 SNPs and 129 out of 147 InDels were present in a widely used blast-susceptible rice variety (LTH). Protein-protein interaction analysis revealed a strong interaction between NBS-LRR candidates and several known R genes. One homolog of disease resistance protein (RPM1) was involved in the plant-pathogen interaction pathway. Artificial inoculation of disease/insect displayed resistance phenotypes against rice blast and brown planthopper in two lines. The results will provide allele-specific markers for rice molecular breeding.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1007/s11105-018-1103-1) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Cytological Observations and Bulked-Segregant Analysis Coupled Global Genome Sequencing Reveal Two Genes Associated with Pollen Fertility in Tetraploid Rice

“…The same work was repeated in F 3 generation. The DNA from leaves of two parents and two bulks of F 2 and F 3 generations were extracted, and their libraries constructed and sequenced based on the manufacturer’s instructions Illumina HiSeq [ 62 ].…”

“…The anthers from 20 plants of each H3, T452, JG, and JD were mixed to construct a pool. The mixed anther samples were sent to Biomark Biotechnology Co., Ltd. for RNA extraction, libraries construction and sequencing based on the manufacturer’s instructions Illumina HiSeq [ 62 ].…”

Production Assessment and Genome Comparison Revealed High Yield Potential and Novel Specific Alleles Associated with Fertility and Yield in Neo-Tetraploid Rice

“…Young leaves of 13 NTRs and their parental lines (Jackson-4x and 96025) were collected and their genomic DNA were extracted using the cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) method (Cota-Sanchez et al 2006). The sequencing libraries were constructed, and sequenced based on the manufacturer's instructions of Illumina HiSeq (Yu et al 2018). The low-quality data were trimmed using the following criterions: (a) sequencing adapters were removed; (b) sequencing reads with N percentage more than 50% were removed; (c) sequencing reads with low-quality base (base quality value lower than 10) percentage more than 50% were removed.…”

Genomics Analyses Reveal Unique Classification, Population Structure and Novel Allele of Neo-Tetraploid Rice

“…Genome sequencing data of tetraploid rice, including 15 neo-tetraploid rice lines (NTRs) and 18 autotetraploid rice lines (ATRs) were collected from our bioproject PRJNA526117. The previously published diploid rice genome sequencing data of 38 accessions (8 common wild rice lines, 15 indica rice lines and 15 japonica rice lines) were downloaded from the NCBI SRA database with the bioproject accession number PRJNA396096 (Yu et al 2018), PRJNA526117 (Yu et al 2020) and PRJNA407820 (Wang et al 2018a) using the Aspera Connect (version 3.7.4.147727) software, and the downloaded SRA files were transformed into fastq format using the fastqdump command in SRAToolkit (http://ncbi.github.io/ sra-tools/). The quantity and quality of raw sequencing data was evaluated using the FastQC (v0.11.6) software (Andrews 2010) and the low-quality sequencing reads were removed.…”
