Abstract:

【Objective】The mapping and candidate gene analysis of rice clustered spikelet genes help clone the functional genes for clustered spikelet caused by shortening of the branch length in the process of panicle development. 【Method】A stable clustered spikelet mutant cl6 was obtained through the space mutation breeding technique with Yuenongsimiao, a good quality rice cultivar in Guangdong Province as material. F1 and F2 mapping populations were constructed by crossing cl6 with Yuejinyinzhan. The clustered spikelet gene was mapped and candidate genes were predicted and evaluated by combining with transcriptome sequencing. 【Result】Genetic analysis showed that the trait was controlled by a pair of semi-dominant gene. The gene was mapped to an interval about 416 kb on chromosome 6 by Bulked Segregant Analysis(BSA). Furthermore, OsFBK16 was selected as the best candidate gene through expression profiling analysis, RNA-seq, gene sequence differences analysis and qRT-PCR verification. A 9 bp insertion mutation in the 5'-UTR region of this gene suggests that it may regulate transcription or translation process through secondary structural changes and participating in the differentiation of stems during the development of young panicle of rice. 【Conclusion】It will lay a theoretical foundation for analyzing the shortening mechanism of secondary branches and spikelet peduncle length.

摘要:

【目的】通过对水稻小穗簇生基因的定位与候选基因分析,为进一步克隆幼穗发育过程中缩短枝梗长度造成小穗簇生的功能基因奠定基础。【方法】以航天诱变育种技术处理常规优质稻品种粤农丝苗获得一个稳定遗传的小穗簇生突变体cl6为试验材料,与粤金银占构建F1、F2作图群体,对簇生基因进行定位,结合转录组测序对候选基因进行预测与评价。【结果】遗传分析结果表明,突变体cl6的簇生性状由非完全显性单基因控制,混合分组分析法将该基因定位于第6染色体上约416 kb的区间。进一步通过表达谱分析、转录组测序技术、基因序列差异性分析和qRT-PCR验证等筛选出OsFBK16为最佳候选基因,其5′-UTR区域发生9个碱基的插入突变,暗示该基因可能通过二级结构改变调控转录或翻译水平,参与水稻幼穗发育过程中枝梗的分化。【结论】本研究结果为解析水稻二次枝梗和小穗梗缩短机制奠定一定理论基础。
