Genome-Wide Association Study of Starch Properties in Local Thai Rice.

ABSTRACT: Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the main source of energy for humans and a staple food of high cultural significance for much of the world's population. Rice with highly resistant starch (RS) is beneficial for health and can reduce the risk of disease, especially type II diabetes. The identification of loci affecting starch properties will facilitate breeding of high-quality and health-supportive rice. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 230 rice cultivars was used to identify candidate loci affecting starch properties. The apparent amylose content (AAC) among rice cultivars ranged from 7.04 to 33.06%, and the AAC was positively correlated with RS (R² = 0.94) and negatively correlated with rapidly available glucose (RAG) (R² = -0.73). Three loci responsible for starch properties were detected on chromosomes 1, 6, and 11. On chromosome 6, the most significant SNP corresponded to LOC_Os06g04200 which encodes granule-bound starch synthase I (GBSSI) or starch synthase. Two novel loci associated with starch traits were LOC_Os01g65810 and LOC_Os11g01580, which encode an unknown protein and a sodium/calcium exchanger, respectively. The markers associated with GBSSI and LOC_Os11g01580 were tested in two independent sets of rice populations to confirm their effect on starch properties. The identification of genes associated with starch traits will further the understanding of the molecular mechanisms affecting starch in rice and may be useful in the selection of rice varieties with improved starch.

Project description:An understanding of cassava starch paste properties (CSPP) can contribute to the selection of clones with differentiated starches. This study aimed to identify genomic regions associated with CSPP using different genome-wide association study (GWAS) methods (MLM, MLMM, and Farm-CPU). The GWAS was performed using 23,078 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The rapid viscoanalyzer (RVA) parameters were pasting temperature (PastTemp), peak viscosity (PeakVisc), hot-paste viscosity (Hot-PVisc), cool-paste viscosity (Cold-PVisc), final viscosity (FinalVis), breakdown (BreDow), and setback (Setback). Broad phenotypic and molecular diversity was identified based on the genomic kinship matrix. The broad-sense heritability estimates (h2) ranged from moderate to high magnitudes (0.66 to 0.76). The linkage disequilibrium (LD) declined to between 0.3 and 2.0 Mb (r2 <0.1) for most chromosomes, except chromosome 17, which exhibited an extensive LD. Thirteen SNPs were found to be significantly associated with CSPP, on chromosomes 3, 8, 17, and 18. Only the BreDow trait had no associated SNPs. The regional marker-trait associations on chromosome 18 indicate a LD block between 2907312 and 3567816 bp and that SNP S18_3081635 was associated with SetBack, FinalVis, and Cold-PVisc (all three GWAS methods) and with Hot-PVisc (MLM), indicating that this SNP can track these four traits simultaneously. The variance explained by the SNPs ranged from 0.13 to 0.18 for SetBack, FinalVis, and Cold-PVisc and from 0.06 to 0.09 for PeakVisc and Hot-PVisc. The results indicated additive effects of the genetic control of Cold-PVisc, FinalVis, Hot-PVisc, and SetBack, especially on the large LD block on chromosome 18. One transcript encoding the glycosyl hydrolase family 35 enzymes on chromosome 17 and one encoding the mannose-p-dolichol utilization defect 1 protein on chromosome 18 were the most likely candidate genes for the regulation of CSPP. These results underline the potential for the assisted selection of high-value starches to improve cassava root quality through breeding programs.
