Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Starch and protein are two major components of polished rice, and the amylose and protein contents affect eating and cooking qualities (ECQs). In the present study, genome-wide association study with high-quality re-sequencing data was performed for 10 ECQs in a panel of 227 non-glutinous rice accessions and four derived panels. RESULTS:Population structure accounted for high phenotypic variation in three routine panels and had minor effects on subspecies-based panels. Using the mixed linear model method based on the P + K model, we detected 29, 24, 16, 17, and 29 loci that were significant for ECQ parameters in each of the five panels. Some of these loci were close to starch synthesis-related genes. Two quantitative trait loci (QTLs) (chr.9: 15417525 ~ 15474876; 17538294 ~ 18443016) for several starch paste viscosity properties detected in four panels were close to the isoamylase 3 gene, one QTL (chr.1: 30627943 ~ 31668474) for consistency detected in three panels was close to the starch synthase IV-1 gene. The QTL (chr.7: 1118122 ~ 1967247) for breakdown (BD), detected in the whole panel and japonica panel, and one QTL (chr.7: 25312126 ~ 26540950) for BD and setback (SB), detected in the whole panel and indica panel, may be specific gene alleles in japonica or indica panels. One previously detected QTL (chr.11: 22240707 ~ 22563596) for protein content and one new QTL (chr.5: 7756614 ~ 8042699) for many ECQ traits detected in more than two panels, may represent valuable targets for future cloning of the underlying genes. CONCLUSIONS:This study detected minor-effect QTLs affecting ECQs, and may increase our understanding of the genetic differences regulating the formation of ECQ between indica and japonica varieties.
