High-resolution mapping of GRH6, a gene from Oryza nivara (Sharma et Shastry) conferring resistance to green rice leafhopper (Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler).

ABSTRACT: The green rice leafhopper (GRH), Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler, is a major insect pest of cultivated rice, Oryza sativa L., throughout the temperate regions of East Asia. GRH resistance had been reported in the wild species Oryza nivara but genetic basis of GRH resistance in wild rice accession has not been clarified. Here, we found a major QTL, qGRH4.2, on chromosome 4 conferred GRH resistance with 14.1 of the logarithm of odds (LOD) score explaining 67.6% of phenotypic variance in the BC1F1 population derived from a cross between the susceptible japonica cultivar 'Taichung 65' (T65) and O. nivara accession IRGC105715. qGRH4.2 has been identified as GRH6 between the markers RM5414 and C60248 in a BC3F2 population derived from two BC3F1 plants resistant to GRH. In a high-resolution mapping, the GRH6 region was delimited between the markers G6-c60k and 7L16f, and corresponded to an 31.2-kbp region of the 'Nipponbare' genome. Understanding the genetic basis of GRH resistance will facilitate the use of GRH resistance genes in marker-assisted breeding in rice.

Project description:Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized systems-based analysis of cellular pathways. The goals of this study are to investigate NGS-derived rice leaf transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) exposed to green rice leafhopper (GRH) and validated RNA-Seq results using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT–PCR). Methods: Rice leaf mRNA profiles of 21-day-old wild-type (WT) and Near Isogenic Line (NIL) rice were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina’s HiSeq™ 4000 Sequencing System. For assembled genes, longest contigs of the assembled contigs were filtered and clustered into the non-redundant transcripts using CD-HIT-EST (Li et al., 2001; Bolger et al., 2014). qRT–PCR validation was performed using ROX and SYBR Green assays. Results: RNA-Seq results revealed that an average of 1,766,347 (1,240,317 in control and 526,030 GRH treated plants) and 3,676,765 (2,986,748 control and 690,017 GRH) counts per million mapped (CPM) reads were generated from Ilpum and NIL GRH treated plants, respectively. After alignment, more than 75% of all reads were successfully mapped to the reference genome, and 8,859 genes and 15,815,400 transcripts were obtained. GRH infestation caused differential expression of 4265 up-regulated and 4,594 down-regulated genes in Ilpum, while in NIL, 4,479 and 4,380 genes were up- and down-regulated, respectively 48 h post-infestation. A total of 3,424 differentially expressed genes (DEGs, 1,605 up-regulated in Ilpum and down-regulated in NIL; 1,819 genes up-regulated in NIL and down-regulated in Ilpum) were identified. Interestingly, these DEGs were found to be involved in key physiological processes, with interesting molecular functions, including plant defense against diverse biotic stresses, hormone signaling, and other developmental processes. Based on the quantile normalization of the Fragments Per Kilobase of transcript per Million mapped reads (FPKM) values followed by student’s t-test (p <0.05) we identified 3,283 DEGs in Ilpum (1,935 upregulated and 1,348 downregulated) and 2,599 DEGs in NIL (1,621 up-regulated and 978 down-regulated) with at least log2 (logarithm base 2) 2-fold change (Log2FC) in expression upon GRH infestation. Conclusions: The current study has provided the first RNA-Seq dataset and comparative transcriptome profile of GRH responsive genes from Ilpum (GRH-susceptible rice cultivar) and a near isogenic line (NIL) carrying Grh1 gene introduced from Shingwang into Ilpum to investigate the possible transcriptional interaction with other defense related genes. In addition, RNA-Seq data and MapMan analysis revealed the activation of multiple regulatory pathways following GRH infestation. Furthermore, the observed differential transcriptome profile between Ilpum and NIL would suggest the existence of a possible interaction network between Grh1 and other defense related genes towards GRH resistance in rice.
