摘要:

利用CRISPR/Cas9基因编辑技术同时对水稻品种锡贡6号的粒型相关基因GS3GS9GW2进行编辑,通过多基因编辑策略改良水稻粒型,分别在这3个基因的第一外显子设计敲除靶点,并构建CRISPR/Cas9表达载体,通过农杆菌介导的遗传转化获得T0代转基因植株。结果表明,T0代植株中出现了多种基因编辑类型,包括双等位基因纯合突变和双杂合突变。通过自交获得T1代植株,并筛选出不含外源转基因成分且GS3GS9GW2基因均发生与T0代一致突变的突变体材料。对T1代突变体的农艺性状分析表明,突变体1188-42-1的粒长最高增加了21.62%,1188-4-12的粒宽最高增加了13.16%,1188-4-13的籽粒长宽比最高增加了26.65%。同时,各突变体的千粒重、单株粒重、单株产量、出糙率、精米率、整精米率和垩白度均显著提高,但各突变体的结实率均有轻微降低,降幅为4.12%~13.40%。另外,1188-18-8的垩白粒率最高,增加了175.00%,而1188-42-2的垩白粒率最低,降低了50.50%。

Abstract:

The CRISPR/Cas9 gene-editing technique was used to simultaneously modify the grain shape-related genes GS3, GS9, and GW2 in the rice cultivar Xigong 6. The aim was to improve the rice grain shape through a multi-gene editing strategy. Knockout target sites were designed within the first exons of each gene, and CRISPR/Cas9 expression vectors were constructed to produce T0 generation transgenic plants via Agrobacterium- mediated genetic transformation. The results showed that various types of gene-editing mutations, including biallelic homozygous and double heterozygous mutations, were observed in the T0 generation. T1 generation plants were obtained through self-pollination, and mutant materials lacking exogenous transgenic components, while mutations in the GS3, GS9, and GW2 consistent with those in the T0 generation were screened. Agronomic trait analysis of T1 generation mutants revealed significant improvements in grain morphology: mutants 1188-42-1 showed a maximum grain length increase of 21.62%, 1188-4-12 exhibited a 13.16% increase in grain width, and 1188-4-13 displayed a 26.65% enhancement in length-width ratio. Concurrently, 1000-grain weight, grain weight per plant, yield per plant, brown rice rate, rice milling rate, head rice rate, and chalkiness degree were all significantly increased. However, a minor reduction in seed-setting rate 4.12%-13.40% was observed across all mutants. Notable variations in chalky rate were recorded: line 1188-18-8 showed a 175.00% increase, while 1188-42-2 demonstrated a 50.50% decrease.
