Superior haplotypes of key drought-responsive genes reveal opportunities for the development of climate-resilient rice varieties.

ABSTRACT: Haplotype-based breeding is an emerging and innovative concept that enables the development of designer crop varieties by exploiting and exploring superior alleles/haplotypes among target genes to create new traits in breeding programs. In this regard, whole-genome re-sequencing of 399 genotypes (landraces and breeding lines) from the 3000 rice genomes panel (3K-RG) is mined to identify the superior haplotypes for 95 drought-responsive candidate genes. Candidate gene-based association analysis reveals 69 marker-trait associations (MTAs) in 16 genes for single plant yield (SPY) under drought stress. Haplo-pheno analysis of these 16 genes identifies superior haplotypes for seven genes associated with the higher SPY under drought stress. Our study reveals that the performance of lines possessing superior haplotypes is significantly higher (p ≤ 0.05) as measured by single plant yield (SPY), for the OsGSK1-H4, OsDSR2-H3, OsDIL1-H22, OsDREB1C-H3, ASR3-H88, DSM3-H4 and ZFP182-H4 genes as compared to lines without the superior haplotypes. The validation results indicate that a superior haplotype for the DREB transcription factor (OsDREB1C) is present in all the drought-tolerant rice varieties, while it was notably absent in all susceptible varieties. These lines carrying the superior haplotypes can be used as potential donors in haplotype-based breeding to develop high-yielding drought-tolerant rice varieties.

Project description:Rice blast and bacterial leaf blight, are major disease, significantly threatens rice yield in all rice growing regions under favorable conditions and identification of resistance genes and their superior haplotypes is a potential strategy for effectively managing and controlling this devastating disease. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) using a diverse set of 147 rice accessions for blast and bacterial blight diseases in replications. Results revealed 23 (9 for blast and 14 for BLB) significant marker-trait associations (MTAs) that corresponded to 107 and 210 candidate genes for blast and BLB, respectively. The haplo-pheno analysis of the candidate genes led to the identification of eight superior haplotypes for blast, with an average SES score ranging from 0.00 to 1.33, and five superior haplotypes for BLB, with scores ranging from 1.52cm to 4.86cm superior haplotypes. Among these, superior haplotypes LOC_OS12G39700-H4 and LOC_Os06g30440-H33 were identified with the lowest average blast scores of 0.00-0.67, and superior haplotype LOC_Os02g12660-H39 exhibited the lowest average lesion length (1.88 - 2.06cm) for BLB. A total of ten accessions for blast and eight accessions for BLB were identified carrying superior haplotypes were identified. These haplotypes belong to aus and indx subpopulations of five countries (Bangladesh, Brazil, India, Myanmar, and Pakistan). For BLB resistance, eight accessions from six countries (Bangladesh, China, India, Myanmar, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka) and four subpopulations (aus, ind1A, ind2, and ind3) were identified carrying superior haplotypes. Interestingly, four candidate genes, LOC_Os06g21040, LOC_Os04g23960, LOC_Os12g39700, and LOC_Os01g24640 encoding transposon and retrotransposon proteins were among those with superior haplotypes known to play a crucial role in plant defense responses. These identified superior haplotypes have the potential to be combined into a single genetic background through haplotype-based breeding for a broader resistance spectrum against blast and bacterial blight diseases.
