Mapping of Candidate Genes for Nitrogen Uptake and Utilization in Japonica Rice at Seedling Stage.

ABSTRACT: Nitrogen (N) is one of the essential nutrients for the growth and development of crops. The adequate application of N not only increases the yield of crops but also improves the quality of agricultural products, but the excessive application of N can cause many adverse effects on ecology and the environment. In this study, genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) was performed under low- and high-N conditions based on 788,396 SNPs and phenotypic traits relevant to N uptake and utilization (N content and N accumulation). A total of 75 QTLs were obtained using GWAS, which contained 811 genes. Of 811 genes, 281 genes showed different haplotypes, and 40 genes had significant phenotypic differences among different haplotypes. Of these 40 genes, 5 differentially expressed genes (Os01g0159250</
