Genome-wide association study reveals candidate genes related to low temperature tolerance in rice (Oryza sativa) during germination

In this study, relative germination percentage (RGP) and delayed mean germination time (DMGT) were measured in various rice accessions at the germination stage and carried out association analysis to identify candidate genes related to low temperature germination (LTG) using a natural population comprising 137 rice cultivars and inbred lines selected from the Korean rice core set.

Abstract

In this study, relative germination percentage (RGP) and delayed mean germination time (DMGT) were measured in various rice accessions at the germination stage and carried out association analysis to identify candidate genes related to low temperature germination (LTG) using a natural population comprising 137 rice cultivars and inbred lines selected from the Korean rice core set. Genome-wide association study using ~ 1.44 million high-quality SNPs, which were identified by re-sequencing all rice collections, revealed 48 candidate genes on chromosome 10 and 55 candidate genes on chromosome 11 in the high peak SNP sites of associated loci for RGP and DMGT, respectively. By detecting highly associated variations located inside genic regions and performing functional annotation of the genes, we detected 23 candidate genes for RGP and 18 genes for DMGT for LTG. In addition, the haplotype and sequence analysis of the candidate gene (Os10g0371100) with RGP trait and the candidate gene (Os11t0104240-00) with DMGT revealed correlation between sequences of functional variations and phenotypes. Several novel LTG-related candidate genes previously were known for the function during rice germination and uncovered their substantial natural variations. These candidate genes represent valuable resources for molecular breeding and genetic improvement of cold tolerance during rice germination.
