Transcriptomic and QTL Analysis of Seed Germination Vigor under Low Temperature in Weedy Rice WR04-6.

ABSTRACT: Low temperature is one of the major factors affecting rice germination, and low temperature germination (LTG) is an important agronomic trait. Although significant progress has been made in the study of rice LTG, the molecular mechanism of LTG remains poorly understood. To explore more rice LTG gene resources, we first demonstrated that weedy rice WR04-6 (Oryza sativa f. spontanea) had significantly higher LTG ability at 10 °C than the cultivated rice Qishanzhan (QSZ Oryza sativa L. ssp. indica). RNA-seq was used to investigate the gene expression of WR04-6 and QSZ at 10 °C for 10, 12 and 14 days after imbibition (DAI) of seed germination. The results of Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment revealed that the
