Abstract Background Wild rice, including Oryza nivara and Oryza rufipogon, which are considered as the ancestors of Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.), possess high genetic diversity and serve as a crucial resource for breeding novel cultivars of cultivated rice. Although many rice domestication related traits, such as seed shattering and plant architecture, have been intensively studied at the phenotypic and genomic levels, further investigation is needed to understand the molecular basis of phenotypic differences between cultivated and wild rice. Drought stress is one of the most severe abiotic stresses affecting rice growth and production. Adaptation to drought stress involves a cascade of genes and regulatory factors that form complex networks. Long noncoding natural antisense transcripts (lncNATs), a class of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), regulate the corresponding sense transcripts and play an important role in plant growth and development. However, the contribution of lncNATs to drought stress response in wild rice remains largely unknown. Results Here, we conducted strand-specific RNA sequencing (ssRNA-seq) analysis of Nipponbare (O. sativa ssp. japonica) and two O. nivara accessions (BJ89 and BJ278) to determine the role of lncNATs in drought stress response in wild rice. A total of 1,246 lncRNAs were identified, including 1,091 coding–noncoding NAT pairs, of which 50 were expressed only in Nipponbare, and 77 were expressed only in BJ89 and/or BJ278. Of the 1,091 coding–noncoding NAT pairs, 240 were differentially expressed between control and drought stress conditions. Among these 240 NAT pairs, 12 were detected only in Nipponbare, and 187 were detected uniquely in O. nivara. Furthermore, 10 of the 240 coding–noncoding NAT pairs were correlated with genes previously demonstrated to be involved in stress response; among these, nine pairs were uniquely found in O. nivara, and one pair was shared between O. nivara and Nipponbare. Conclusion We identified lncNATs associated with drought stress response in cultivated rice and O. nivara. These results will improve our understanding of the function of lncNATs in drought tolerance and accelerate rice breeding.

Origin And Evolution

A collection of 481 rice accessions was surveyed for ribosomal DNA (rDNA) intergenic spacer length polymorphism to assess the extent of genetic diversity in Chinese and Asian rice germplasm. The materials included 83 accessions of common wild rice, Oryza rufipogon, 75 of which were from China; 348 entries of cultivated rice (Oryza sativa), representing almost all the rice growing areas in China; and 50 cultivars from South and East Asia. A total of 42 spacer length variants (SLVs) were detected. The size differences between adjacent SLVs in the series were very heterogeneous, ranging from ca. 21 to 311 bp. The 42 SLVs formed 80 different rDNA phenotypic combinations. Wild rice displayed a much greater number of rDNA SLVs than cultivated rice, while cultivated rice showed a larger number of rDNA phenotypes. Indica and japonica groups of O. sativa contained about equal numbers of SLVs, but the SLV distribution was significantly differentiated: indica rice was preferentially associated with longer SLVs and japonica rice with shorter ones. The results may have significant implications regarding the origin and evolution of cultivated rice, as well as the inheritance and molecular evolution of rDNA intergenic spacers in rice.

AbstractDongxiang wild rice (Oryza rufipogon, DXWR), one of the species of common wild rice, is regarded as an important genetic resource for the improvement of cultivated rice (Oryza sativa). Molecular markers are reliable tools that can greatly accelerate the breeding process and have been widely used in various species. In the present study, a total of 3681 genic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were developed for DXWR based on transcriptome sequencing technology. Additionally, 25 primer pairs were randomly selected and synthesized for the verification. Among them, 18 (72%) primer pairs were successfully amplified in PCR amplification with genomic DNA of DXWR and also had abundant polymorphisms between DXWR and cultivated rice. These novel genic SSR markers will enrich current genomic resources for DXWR, and provide an effective tool for genetic study and molecular marker assisted breeding for this valuable and endangered germplasm.

AbstractAsian cultivated rice is believed to have been domesticated from an immediate ancestral progenitor, Oryza rufipogon, which provides promising sources of novel alleles for world rice improvement. Here we first present a high-quality de novo assembly of the typical O. rufipogon genome through the integration of single-molecule sequencing (SMRT), 10× and Hi-C technologies. This chromosome-based reference genome allows a multi-species comparative analysis of the annual selfing O. sativa and its two wild progenitors, the annual selfing O. nivara and perennial outcrossing O. rufipogon, identifying massive numbers of dispensable genes that are functionally enriched in reproductive process. Comparative genomic analyses identified millions of genomic variants, of which large-effect mutations (e.g., SVs, CNV and PAVs) may affect the variation of agronomically significant traits. We demonstrate how lineage-specific expansion of rice gene families may have contributed to the formation of reproduction isolation (e.g., the recognition of pollen and male sterility), thus brightening the role in driving mating system evolution during the evolutionary process of recent speciation. We document thousands of positively selected genes that are mainly involved in flower development, ripening, pollination, reproduction and response to biotic- and abiotic stresses. We show that selection pressures may serve as crucial forces to govern substantial genomic alterations among the three rice species that form the genetic basis of rapid evolution of mating and reproductive systems under diverse habitats. This first chromosome-based wild rice genome in the genus Oryza will become powerful to accelerate the exploration of untapped genomic diversity from wild rice for the enhancement of elite rice cultivars.

Photoperiod sensitivity is a dominant determinant for the phase transition in cereal crops. CCT (CONSTANS, CO-like, and TOC1) transcription factors (TFs) are involved in many physiological functions including the regulation of the photoperiodic flowering. However, the functional roles of CCT TFs have not been elucidated in the wild progenitors of crops. In this study, we identified 41 CCT TFs, including 19 CMF, 17 COL, and five PRR TFs in Oryza rufipogon, the presumed wild ancestor of Asian cultivated rice. There are thirty-eight orthologous CCT genes in Oryza sativa, of which ten pairs of duplicated CCT TFs are shared with O. rufipogon. We investigated daily expression patterns, showing that 36 OrCCT genes exhibited circadian rhythmic expression. A total of thirteen OrCCT genes were identified as putative flowering suppressors in O. rufipogon based on rhythmic and developmental expression patterns and transgenic phenotypes. We propose that OrCCT08, OrCCT24, and OrCCT26 are the strong functional alleles of rice DTH2, Ghd7, and OsPRR37, respectively. The SD treatment at 80 DAG stimulated flowering of the LD-grown O. rufipogon plants. Our results further showed that the nine OrCCT genes were significantly downregulated under the treatment. Our findings would provide valuable information for the construction of photoperiodic flowering regulatory network and functional characterization of the CCT TFs in both O. rufipogon and O. sativa.

Domestication syndrome, i.e. seed shattering, seed dormancy and plant architecture have been selected during the domestication of wild rice around 10,000 years ago. These traits evolved through a series of genomic modifications, including selection of nucleotide polymorphisms resulting from spontaneous mutations, recombination, and fixation of alleles and were incorporated into cultivated rice by hybridization or introgression. The Australian wild rice populations are geographically and genetically distinct and free from genetic exchange with cultivated rice unlike the wild populations in Asia. Furthermore, recent studies reveal they have numerous traits of value and unique alleles. Therefore, these populations seem to be suitable to use to investigate the genetic basis of domestication traits as well as other important traits. In this study, we aim to determine the origin and role of domestication loci using two Australian wild populations: Taxa A (like Oryza rufipogon) and Taxa B (like Oryza meridionalis) endemic near Cairns, Northern Queensland. To do so, firstly, we will analyse the variation of domestication loci in these two wild populations by the comparison with cultivated rice (Oryza sativa spp. japonica cv. Nipponbare) using the whole genome sequencing. Secondly, we will look at the gene expression of the domestication loci at different seed development stages using transcriptomics. Thirdly, we will determine the variation of starch synthesis related genes using whole genome sequencing. Next generation sequencing along with a set of bioinformatics tools will be applied. This research may enlighten our understanding about the domestication process as well as provide insights into how to domesticate these species through genetic manipulation for commercial purpose.
