Haplotype-based breeding is an emerging and innovative concept that enables the development of designer crop varieties by exploiting and exploring superior alleles/haplotypes among target genes to create new traits in breeding programs. In this regard, whole-genome re-sequencing of 399 genotypes (landraces and breeding lines) from the 3000 rice genomes panel (3K-RG) is mined to identify the superior haplotypes for 95 drought-responsive candidate genes. Candidate gene-based association analysis reveals 69 marker-trait associations (MTAs) in 16 genes for single plant yield (SPY) under drought stress. Haplo-pheno analysis of these 16 genes identifies superior haplotypes for seven genes associated with the higher SPY under drought stress. Our study reveals that the performance of lines possessing superior haplotypes is significantly higher (p ≤ 0.05) as measured by single plant yield (SPY), for the OsGSK1-H4, OsDSR2-H3, OsDIL1-H22, OsDREB1C-H3, ASR3-H88, DSM3-H4 and ZFP182-H4 genes as compared to lines without the superior haplotypes. The validation results indicate that a superior haplotype for the DREB transcription factor (OsDREB1C) is present in all the drought-tolerant rice varieties, while it was notably absent in all susceptible varieties. These lines carrying the superior haplotypes can be used as potential donors in haplotype-based breeding to develop high-yielding drought-tolerant rice varieties.
基于单倍型的育种是一种新兴的创新概念,它通过利用和探索目标基因中的优异等位基因/单倍型,在育种计划中创造新的性状,从而开发设计作物品种。在这方面,对来自 3000 个水稻基因组面板(3K-RG)的 399 个基因型(地方品种和育种种系)进行了全基因组重测序,以鉴定 95 个抗旱候选基因的优异单倍型。基于候选基因的关联分析揭示了 16 个基因中的 69 个标记-性状关联(MTAs),用于在干旱胁迫下的单株产量(SPY)。对这 16 个基因的单倍型-表型分析确定了 7 个与干旱胁迫下更高 SPY 相关的基因的优异单倍型。我们的研究表明,与不具有优异单倍型的系相比,具有优异单倍型的系的表现显著更高(p≤0.05),这是通过单株产量(SPY)来衡量的,这些系包括 OsGSK1-H4、OsDSR2-H3、OsDIL1-H22、OsDREB1C-H3、ASR3-H88、DSM3-H4 和 ZFP182-H4 基因。验证结果表明,耐旱水稻品种中存在 DREB 转录因子(OsDREB1C)的优异单倍型,而在所有易感品种中均未见该单倍型。这些携带优异单倍型的系可以作为基于单倍型的育种中的潜在供体,以开发高产耐旱水稻品种。
