Fine Mapping of , a QTL Controlling the Heading Date, to a 20.7-kb DNA Fragment in Rice ( L.)
Plant Molecular Biology Reporter(2011)
Abstract
A library consisting of 1,123 single-segment substitution lines (SSSLs) in the same genetic background of an elite rice variety Huajingxian74 (HJX74) was evaluated for heading date. From this library, the SSSL W05-1-11-5-16-2-5 with the substituted interval of PSM103—RM348-OSR15-PSM382-RM131-RM127—RM280 was found having a gene, which stably performed extreme late heading date which performed stable and late heading in the different environments of Shandong, Guangdong, and Hainan. To map the gene governing heading date, the SSSL W05-1-11-5-16-2-5 was crossed with the recipient HJX74 to develop an F segregating population. The distribution of late and early heading plants in this population fitted a segregation ratio of 3:1, indicating the late heading was controlled by a dominant gene. The gene locus for heading date was tentatively designated as . Using a random sample of 460 individuals from the F segregation population, the locus was mapped between two SSR markers RM3335 and RM17572, with genetic distances of 0.1 and 0.2 cM, respectively. For fine mapping of , a large F segregating population of 3,000 individuals were developed from F plants heterozygous in the RM3335-RM17572 region. Recombinants analyses further mapped to an interval of 20.7-kb-bounded WB05 and the WB06. Sequence analysis of this 20.7-kb region revealed that it contains three open reading frames (ORFs), encoding wall-associated receptor kinase-like 5, putative F-box domain containing protein, and putative arogenate/prephenate dehydratase. Of them, ORF1, predicting to encode serine/threonine kinase, is considered the most likely as the candidate gene. The genetic and physical map of the locus will be very useful in molecular cloning of the gene.
