Abstract
Low-temperature sensitivity at the germination stage is a challenge for direct seeding of rice in Asian countries. How Ca2+ and auxin (IAA) signaling regulate primary root growth under chilling remains unexplored. Here, we showed that OsCML16 interacted specifically with OsPILS7a to improve primary root elongation of early rice seedlings under chilling. OsCML16, a subgroup 6c member of the OsCML family, interacted with multiple cytosolic loop regions of OsPILS7a in a Ca2+-dependent manner. OsPILS7a localized to the endoplasmic reticulum membranes and functioned as an auxin efflux carrier in a yeast growth assay. Transgenics showed that presence of OsCML16 enhanced primary root elongation under chilling, whereas the ospils7a knockout mutant lines showed the opposite phenotype. Moreover, under chilling conditions, OsCML16 and OsPILS7a-mediated Ca2+ and IAA signaling and regulated the transcription of IAA signaling-associated genes (OsIAA11, OsIAA23, and OsARF16) and cell division marker genes (OsRAN1, OsRAN2, and OsLTG1) in primary roots. These results show that OsCML16 and OsPILS7a cooperatively regulate primary root elongation of early rice seedlings under chilling. These findings enhance our understanding of the crosstalk between Ca2+ and IAA signaling and reveal insights into the mechanisms underlying cold-stress response during rice germination.

Li C, Lu C, Yang M, Wu G, Nyasulu M, He H, He X, Bian J. Uncovering Novel QTLs and Candidate Genes for Salt Tolerance at the Bud Burst Stage in Rice through Genome-Wide Association Study. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 13:174. [PMID: 38256728 PMCID: PMC10818446 DOI: 10.3390/plants13020174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 10/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/22/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
Salt stress is one of the most important factors limiting rice growth and yield increase. Salt tolerance of rice at the bud burst (STB) stage determines whether germinated seeds can grow normally under salt stress, which is very important for direct seeding. However, reports on quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and candidate genes for STB in rice are very limited. In this study, a natural population of 130 indica and 81 japonica rice accessions was used to identify STB-related QTLs and candidate genes using a genome-wide association study (GWAS). Nine QTLs, including five for relative shoot length (RSL), two for relative root length (RRL), and two for relative root number (RRN), were identified. Five of these STB-related QTLs are located at the same site as the characterized salt tolerance genes, such as OsMDH1, OsSRFP1, and OsCDPK7. However, an important QTL related to RSL, qRSL1-2, has not been previously identified and was detected on chromosome 1. The candidate region for qRSL1-2 was identified by linkage disequilibrium analysis, 18 genes were found to have altered expression levels under salt stress through the RNA-seq database, and 10 of them were found to be highly expressed in the shoot. It was also found that, eight candidate genes (LOC_Os01g62980, LOC_Os01g63190, LOC_Os01g63230, LOC_Os01g63280, LOC_Os01g63400, LOC_Os01g63460, and LOC_Os01g63580) for qRSL1-2 carry different haplotypes between indica and japonica rice, which exactly corresponds to the significant difference in RSL values between indica and japonica rice in this study. Most of the accessions with elite haplotypes were indica rice, which had higher RSL values. These genes with indica-japonica specific haplotypes were identified as candidate genes. Rice accessions with elite haplotypes could be used as important resources for direct seeding. This study also provides new insights into the genetic mechanism of STB.

Genetic dissection of cold tolerance at the budding stage of rice in an indica-japonica recombination inbred line population. PLANT PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY : PPB 2023; 204:108086. [PMID: 37890228 DOI: 10.1016/j.plaphy.2023.108086] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2023] [Revised: 09/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/09/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023]
Abstract
Rice is highly cold-sensitive, and thus, the promotion of cold resistance in buds is essential. In this study, we conducted a mapping analysis to identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with cold tolerance in buds. The analysis was performed using a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population consisting of 192 lines derived from the cold-tolerant strain 02428 and the cold-sensitive strain YZX. Seven additive loci on chromosomes 1, 4, 5, and 6 were identified, of which loci 3 and 7 were found in two crop seasons, indicating stability. Three epistatic interactions, one present over two seasons, were found. Loci 3 and 7 pyramided with two main-effect QTLs observed to control the rate of low-temperature germination in our previous study. Two materials with good cold resistance at the germination and bud stages were obtained, namely, G93 and G146. Transcriptome sequencing analysis of the two parent buds after cold treatment found that genes expressed differentially between the two parents were related to photosynthesis, energy metabolism, and reactive oxygen scavenging. Five candidate genes, namely, Os01g0385400, Os01g0388000, Os06g0287700, Os06g0289200, and Os06g0291100, were selected in the two stable intervals based on gene expression profiles and annotations. These genetic loci exhibit strong potential as targets for breeding cold tolerance in buds and require additional investigation. In conclusion, this work provides valuable genetic resources that can be utilized to improve the cold tolerance of rice.
