Project description:To investigate the genetic relationship between two major grain length loci GS3 and qGL3, we developed the near-isogenic lines (NILs), NIL-GS3 (GS3/qGL3), NIL-qgl3 (gs3/qgl3), NIL-GS3/qgl3 (GS3/qgl3) in the background of 93-11 (gs3/qGL3) by crossing and MAS approach. Four samples was analyzed: three near-isogenic lines (NILs), NIL-GS3 (GS3/qGL3), NIL-qgl3 (gs3/qgl3), NIL-GS3/qgl3 (GS3/qgl3) and their background of 93-11. Every sample had three independed duplications. And the primary panicle with 3-6 cm length from the three NILs and 93-11 were used for RNA preparation and hybrid with Rice Genome OneArray Microarray (Phalanx Biotech Group).
Project description:The current knowledge of drought stress transcriptomes in rice are mostly relying on comparative studies of diverse genetic background under drought. A more reliable approach is to use near-isogenic lines (NILs) with a common genetic background (Donar parent: Aday Sel, Recurrent parent: IR64), but contrasting levels of resistance to drought stress under initial exposure to water deficit. Here, we examined two pairs of NILs in IR64 background with contrasting drought tolerance. We obtained gene expression profile in roots of rice NILs under different levels of drought stress help to identify genes and mechanisms involved in drought stress.

Project description:The green rice leafhopper (GRH), Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler, is a major insect pest of cultivated rice in temperate Asia. GRH2-near-isogenic line (NIL) TGRH11, GRH4-NIL (TGRH16) and GRH2/GRH4-pyramided line (PYL) TGRH29 were developed by introducing the GRH2 and GRH4 from indica rice (DV85). We identified GRH-inducible genes in respective rice lines. Furthermore, we compared the gene expression levels between NILs/PYL and control plants (T65).
Project description:Brown planthopper (BPH) is one of the most destructive pests in rice production. The pyramiding application of BPH-resistance genes BPH14 and BPH15 can effectively improve rice resistance to BPH, however, the molecular mechanisms underlying BPH14/BPH15 pyramiding lines are poorly understood. Here, a mRNA expression profiling analysis was performed on the near isogenic lines (NILs) containing the BPH14, BPH15 or BPH14/BPH15 and their recurrent parent (RP) Wushansimiao. A total of 14492 differentially expressed mRNAs (DEGs) were identified from 12 mRNA profiles of resistant NILs and RP at different feeding stages. In the transcriptome analysis, 531 DEGs appeared to be common among the resistant NILs compared to RP before and after BPH feeding, which were enriched in defense response, phosphorylation and salt stress response. In addition, 258 DEGs shared only in resistant NILs were obtained among the different feeding stages, which were enriched in oxidative stress response, karrikin response and chloroplast organization. 21 DEGs were further selected as candidates for BPH resistance. OsPOX8.1, a potential candidate DEG related to BPH resistance, increased reactive oxygen species levels in rice protoplast. Our results provide valuable information to further explore the defense mechanism of insect-resistant gene pyramiding lines and develop robust strategies for insect control.
Project description:The purpose of this experiment was to identify any genes differentially expressed between the Soybean Near Isogenic Lines iron efficient Clark and iron inefficient IsoClark under iron sufficient hydroponic conditions. These genes would represent constituative genetic differences between the NILs. Keywords: Near Isogenic Line Comparison of Unstressed Soybean Plants
Project description:Genes controlling differences in seed longevity between two barley (Hordeum vulgare) accessions were identified by combining a quantitative genetics approach with ˈomicsˈ technologies in Near Isogenic Lines (NILs). The NILs were derived from crosses between the spring barley landraces L94 from Ethiopia and Cebada Capa from Argentina, which produce short-lived and long-lived seeds, respectively. The NILs harbor introgressions from Cebada Capa in four QTLs for seed longevity on 1H and 2H in the background of L94. A label-free proteome analysis was performed on mature, non aged seeds of the two parental lines and the L94 NILs.
Project description:This study conducted isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) proteomic analysis on near-isogenic lines (NILs) to shed light on the drought tolerance conferring qDSI.4B.1 QTL on short arm of chromosome 4B.
