Detection of heading date QTLs in advanced-backcross populations of an elite indica rice cultivar, IR64.

ABSTRACT: IR64 is one of the world's most popular rice cultivars. To collect genetic factors involved in controlling its heading date, we developed 70 reciprocal advanced-backcross populations with a total of 6284 individuals at the BC4F2 generation from crosses between Koshihikari and IR64. We detected 29 QTLs associated with heading date on chromosomes 3, 5-8, 10, and 12. Twenty QTLs were located in the same chromosome regions as previously isolated heading date genes (Hd1, Hd6, Hd16, Ghd7, DTH8, Hd17, and Hd18). The rest were located in other chromosome regions. We found more number of QTLs than previous studies using mapping populations of IR64. Fine mapping in additional advanced-backcross populations clearly revealed that QTLs on the long arm of chromosome 7 are overlapping and seem to be a novel genetic factor for heading date because of their different locations from OsPRR37. Our results suggest that the difference in heading date between IR64 and Koshihikari is genetically controlled by many factors, and that a non-functional allele of Hd1 contributes to early heading of IR64 in the genetic background of functional alleles of other heading date QTLs and genes such as Hd6 and Hd16.

Project description:Heading date is an important agronomic trait in rice (Oryza sativa L.); it determines the geographical and seasonal adaptability of the crop. Single segment substitution lines (SSSLs) have become the preferred experimental materials in mapping functional genetic variations as the particular chromosome segments from donor genotypes can be evaluated for their impact on the phenotype in a recurrent recipient background. The phenotypic differences can be attributed to the control of quantitative trait loci (QTLs). Here, we evaluated a library consisting of 1,123 SSSLs in the same genetic background of an elite rice variety, Huajingxian74 (HJX74), and revealed four SSSLs, W05-1-11-2-7-6 (W05), W08-16-3-2 (W08), W12-28-58-03-19-1 (W12), and W22-9-5-2-4-9-3 (W22), which had a significantly different heading date compared to HJX74. To further genetically dissect the QTLs controlling heading date on chromosomes 3, 6, and 10, four SSSLs were used to develop 15 secondary SSSLs with the smaller substituted segments. The qHD-3 heading date QTL detected in W05 and W08 was delimited to an interval of 4.15 cM, whereas qHD-6-1 and qHD-6-2 heading date QTLs dissected from the substituted segments in W12 were mapped to the intervals of 2.25-cM and 2.55-cM, respectively. The qHD-10 QTL detected on the substituted segment in W22 was mapped to an interval of 6.85-cM. The nucleotide and amino acid sequence changes for those genes in the secondary SSSLs were also revealed. The allele variations of those genes might contribute to the heading date QTLs on chromosome 3 (DTH3, OsDof12, and EHD4), chromosome 6 (Hd3a, Hd17, and RFT1), and chromosome 10 (Ehd1 and Ehd2). These sequence variations in heading date genes would be useful resources for further studying the function of genes, and would be important for rice breeding. Overall, our results indicate that secondary SSSLs were powerful tools for genetic dissection of QTLs and identification of differentiation in the genes.
