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GS3、GS9和GW2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GS3、GS9和GW2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%。

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.

水稻是全球半数以上人口的日常主食,是人类不可或缺的粮食基石[1]。在水稻的众多农艺性状中,粒型占据着极为关键的地位,它不仅直接决定了水稻的产量,还会对稻米品质产生影响。禾谷类作物的产量很大程度上取决于其粒型及大小。迄今为止,已报道[2]的与水稻粒型相关的基因和数量性状位点(QTL)达400多个。在这些基因和位点中,GS3[3]、GL3.1[4]、GL4[5]和TGW6[6]等是水稻粒长性状的主效QTL,GW2[7]、TGW2[8-9]、GW5[10]和GW8[11]等是水稻粒宽性状的主效QTL。GS3是第1个成功克隆的粒型基因,是控制籽粒大小的关键QTL,其cDNA全长956 bp,包含5个外显子,编码1个由232个氨基酸组成的跨膜蛋白,它在调节籽粒和器官大小中起负调控作用[3]。GS9编码的蛋白质具有未知的保守功能域,同时具备转录因子活性,它主要通过改变细胞分裂来调节粒型,具体表现为负调控粒长[12]。GW2是第2个与水稻籽粒大小相关的粒宽基因,位于细胞质中,编码一种具有E3泛素连接酶活性的RING型蛋白,通过将其底物锚定到泛素―蛋白酶体中进行降解,从而负调节细胞的分裂,其功能的丧失增加了籽粒细胞数量,导致小穗壳更大(更宽),加快了籽粒灌浆速度,从而增加了籽粒宽度、重量和产量[7]。
CRISPR/Cas9基因编辑技术能对特定基因进行修饰,该技术通过一种具有颈环结构sgRNA来识别PAM序列,并引导Cas9核酸酶切割目标基因,造成DNA双链断裂[13

3 讨论
早期的研究[18,38-
随着技术的不断发展和研究的持续深入,对多个基因同时进行同步编辑和协同优化以改良水稻粒型已经成为一个新的研究方向。黎华等[18]研究表明,当同时对GS3和GS9进行编辑时,GS9对粒长的增加效应可以与GS3叠加,协同改良粒长。韩政宏等[37]通过基因编辑技术发现,GS3单基因突变体的粒长可以增加8%~17%,而千粒重也可以增加8%~15%;GS9单基因突变体的粒长增加5%~15%;而对于GS3/GS9的双基因突变体,粒长增加15%~ 21%,千粒重增加10%~13%。徐善斌等[41]通过对GS3和GS9基因的编辑获得GS3/GS9双基因突变体,其粒长增加26.43%~27.01%,千粒重增加18.34%~41.36%。以上研究均表明,通过多基因编辑均可获得比单基因编辑更好的粒型改良效果,这主要归因于调控粒型基因的功能缺失具有协同增效的特性。本研究通过基因编辑实现粒型综合改良,获得GS3/GS9/GW2的三基因突变体,均表现出了更加优异的综合表型:千粒重增加24.01%~ 38.38%,粒长增幅19.68%~21.62%,粒宽和长宽比分别提升10.15%~13.16%和19.16%~26.65%;另外,产量性状均得到显著提升,稻米外观品质也显著改善。因此,在后续研究中,将会对T1代植株进行加代种植,筛选3个基因突变位点均为纯合的突变体,以期获得能稳定遗传的纯合突变体。以上结果均表明,相对于野生型,通过同时对3个基因进行基因编辑,能够获取相较于单基因编辑更为优良的改良效果,使水稻粒型得到更显著的优化。
4 结论
本研究运用CRISPR/Cas9技术对水稻GS3、GS9、GW2基因进行编辑。在T0代获得多个阳性转化且发生突变的植株,通过自交繁殖至T1代并筛选出无外源成分突变株。对T1代的代表性突变体农艺性状考察发现,粒长、粒宽、长宽比、千粒重、单株产量和稻米外观品质等关键农艺性状较野生型均有显著提升。与单基因编辑相比,多基因编辑(GS3/GS9/GW2 3个基因突变体)表现出更为优良的改良效果,能更大程度对水稻粒型进行改良。

[本文引用: 1]
Increases in the yield of rice, a staple crop for more than half of the global population, are imperative to support rapid population growth. Grain weight is a major determining factor of yield. Here, we report the cloning and functional analysis of THOUSAND-GRAIN WEIGHT 6 (TGW6), a gene from the Indian landrace rice Kasalath. TGW6 encodes a novel protein with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)-glucose hydrolase activity. In sink organs, the Nipponbare tgw6 allele affects the timing of the transition from the syncytial to the cellular phase by controlling IAA supply and limiting cell number and grain length. Most notably, loss of function of the Kasalath allele enhances grain weight through pleiotropic effects on source organs and leads to significant yield increases. Our findings suggest that TGW6 may be useful for further improvements in yield characteristics in most cultivars.

[本文引用: 1]
The FW2.2-like (FWL) genes encode cysteine-rich proteins with a placenta-specific 8 domain. They play roles in cell division and organ size control, response to rhizobium infection, and metal ion homeostasis in plants. Here, we target eight rice FWL genes using the CRISPR/Cas9 system delivered by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. We successfully generate transgenic T0 lines for 15 of the 16 targets. The targeted mutations are detected in the T0 lines of all 15 targets and the average mutation rate is found to be 81.6%. Transfer DNA (T-DNA) truncation is a major reason for the failure of mutagenesis in T0 plants. T-DNA segregation analysis reveals that the T-DNA inserts in transgenic plants can be easily eliminated in the T1 generation. Of the 30 putative off-target sites examined, unintended mutations are detected in 13 sites. Phenotypic analysis reveals that tiller number and plant yield of OsFWL4 gene mutants are significantly greater than those of the wild type. Flag leaves of OsFWL4 gene mutants are wider than those of the wild type. The increase in leaf width of the mutants is caused by an increase in cell number. Additionally, grain length of OsFWL1 gene mutants is higher than that of the wild type. Our results suggest that transgene-free rice plants with targeted mutations can be produced in the T1 generation using the Agrobacterium-mediated CRISPR/Cas9 system and that the OsFWL4 gene is a negative regulator of tiller number and plant yield.

GS9 acts as a transcriptional activator to regulate rice grain shape and appearance quality
DOI:10.1038/s41467-018-03616-y
[本文引用: 2]
Identification of grain shape determining genes can facilitate breeding of rice cultivars with optimal grain shape and appearance quality. Here, we identify GS9 (Grain Shape Gene on Chromosome 9) gene by map-based cloning. The gs9 null mutant has slender grains, while overexpression GS9 results in round grains. GS9 encodes a protein without known conserved functional domain. It regulates grain shape by altering cell division. The interaction of GS9 and ovate family proteins OsOFP14 and OsOFP8 is modulated by OsGSK2 kinase, a key regulator of the brassinosteroids signaling pathway. Genetic interaction analysis reveals that GS9 functions independently from other previously identified grain size genes. Introducing the gs9 allele into elite rice cultivars significantly improves grain shape and appearance quality. It suggests potential application of gs9, alone or in combination with other grain size determining genes, in breeding of rice varieties with optimized grain shape.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) are a distinctive feature of the genomes of most Bacteria and Archaea and are thought to be involved in resistance to bacteriophages. We found that, after viral challenge, bacteria integrated new spacers derived from phage genomic sequences. Removal or addition of particular spacers modified the phage-resistance phenotype of the cell. Thus, CRISPR, together with associated cas genes, provided resistance against phages, and resistance specificity is determined by spacer-phage sequence similarity.

Most conventional and modern crop-improvement methods exploit natural or artificially induced genetic variations and require laborious characterization of the progenies of multiple generations derived from time-consuming genetic crosses. Genome-editing systems, in contrast, provide the means to rapidly modify genomes in a precise and predictable way, making it possible to introduce improvements directly into elite varieties. Here, we describe the range of applications available to agricultural researchers using existing genome-editing tools. In addition to providing examples of genome-editing applications in crop breeding, we discuss the technical and social challenges faced by breeders using genome-editing tools for crop improvement.Copyright © 2019 The Author.

The genetic editing of GS3 via CRISPR/Cas 9 accelerates the breeding of three-line hybrid rice with superior yield and grain quality
DOI:10.1007/s11032-022-01290-z
[本文引用: 2]
Grain size is one of the major traits that determine rice grain yield and quality. The GS3 gene is the first major quantitative trait locus (QTL) that was identified in regulating rice grain length and weight. It was reported that the gs3 allele with a mutation in the organ size regulation (OSR) domain of the GS3 protein produced longer grains. In this study, we used the CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology to introduce an edited gs3 allele into our indica maintainer line, Mei1B, to enhance its grain yield and quality. Through molecular analysis and sequencing, a homologous edited-gs3 mutant line without any transgene was obtained in the T1 generation and was named Mei2B. A superior male sterile line Mei2A was generated by backcrossing the cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) line Mei1A with Mei2B. Mei2B had a higher grain quality and yield compared to its wild-type Mei1B. Its grain length increased by 7.9%, its length/width ratio increased from 3.89 to 4.19, TGW increased by 6.7%, and grain yield per plant increased by 14.9%. In addition, genetic improvement of other quality traits including brown rice length (6.83 mm), brown rice grain length/width ratio (3.61), matched the appearance standards set for traditional Simiao (silk seedling) type cultivars. Two restorer lines were outcrossed to both Mei1A and Mei2A to produce hybrid rice. Compared to two hybrids of Mei1A, the hybrids of Mei2A had longer grains, higher length/width ratio, TGW, and yield per plant. In addition, the hybrids of Mei2A showed a better grain appearance including better translucency, a lower chalky rice rate, and degree of chalkiness than the hybrids of Mei1A. These results demonstrated that the introduction of an elite gs3 allele into Mei1A via CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing technology led to significant genetic improvement of the rice grain. The resultant CMS line Mei2A(gs3) displayed much higher grain quality and yield than the original Mei1A. Therefore, our study demonstrated that the targeted genetic improvement via gene editing technology can enhance rice breeding, especially the breeding of three-line hybrid rice.
