文摘Pre-harvest sprouting(PHS)describes the germination of physiologically mature grains in spikes prior to harvest in cereal crops.PHS could seriously decrease grain yield and quality,which makes it a major constraint to cereal production worldwide.A number of PHS-associated genes in cereals have been reported;however,the molecular mechanisms underlying PHS remain largely elusive.Here,we report a CRISPRCas9 mutant with severe PHS in a paddy field.The mutated gene OsMFT2 encodes a phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein(PEBP).Intriguingly,the OsMFT1,in the same PEBP family,had the opposite effect in controlling rice PHS as does OsMFT2.Germination tests of seeds of chimeric protein-expressing plants revealed that the fourth exon conferred the antagonistic activity of OsMFT1 and OsMFT2 in rice PHS.Additionally,two lines of these plants showed elevated grain numbers per panicle,implying that chimeric protein has potential to significantly increase yield.Moreover,transcriptome analysis and genetic studies indicated that OsMFT1 and OsMFT2 performed opposing functions in rice PHS owing to three co-regulated genes that being contrastingly affected by OsMFT1 and OsMFT2.Overall,it seemed that the proper combination of PEBP family members could obtain optimal PHS resistance and high yield.

文摘Reducing water consumption in rice production in China without affecting grain yield and quality is a significant challenge.This study explored how various dry cultivation methods could improve rice quality while balancing yield to maintain sustainable rice production.A japonica upland rice cultivar and a japonica paddy rice cultivar were cultivated in the field with three cultivation methods:plastic film mulching dry cultivation(PFMC),bare dry cultivation(BC),and continuous flooding cultivation(CF)as control.There was no significant difference in upland rice yield between PFMC and BC,nor in paddy rice yield between PFMC and CF.Compared with CF,the two varieties'yields decreased significantly with BC.Dry cultivation,especially PFMC,could decrease the active filling period,chalky rice rate,chalkiness,amylose content,gel consistency,breakdown viscosity,the ratio of glutelin to prolamin,and leaf senescence while increasing water use efficiency,protein components content,setback viscosity,grain starch branching enzyme(Q-enzyme)activity,and average filling rate.Compared with paddy rice,upland rice had a lower yield,shorter active filling period,lower chalkiness grain rate and gel consistency,higher amylose content,breakdown viscosity,protein components content,and average filling rate.Grain Q-enzyme activity and grain-filling parameters were closely related to rice quality.Reasonable dry cultivation methods could balance yield and quality,especially by improving rice's nutritional and appearance quality.

文摘Oryza longistaminata is an African wild rice species with valuable agronomic traits and the donor parent of perennial rice.Endophytic bacteria play an important role in host health,adaptive evolution and stress tolerance.However,endophytic bacterial communities in O.longistaminata and their plant growth-promoting(PGP)effects on the perennial rice of O.longistaminata offspring are poorly understood.In this study,the endophytic bacterial diversity,composition and network structures in the root,stem,and leaf tissues of O.longistaminata were characterized using Illumina sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene.The results suggested that O.longistaminata contains a multitude of niches for different endophytic bacteria,among which the root endosphere is more complex and functionally diverse than the stem and leaf endospheres.Tissue-specific biomarkers were identified,including Paludibaculum,Pseudactinotalea and Roseimarinus and others,for roots,Blautia for stems and Lachnospiraceae NK4A136 for leaves.The endophytic bacterial network of O.longistaminata was reassembled for various functions,including degradation/utilization/assimilation,detoxification,generation of precursor metabolites and energy,glycan pathways,macromolecule modification and metabolism.A total of 163 endophytic bacterial strains with PGP traits of potassium release,phosphate solubilization,nitrogen fixation,siderophore activity,indole-3-acetic acid(IAA)production,and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate(ACC)deaminase activity were isolated from O.longistaminata.Eleven strains identified as Enterobacter cloacae,Enterobacter ludwigii,Stenotrophomonas maltophilia,Serratia fonticola,and Bacillus velezensis showed stable colonization abilities and PGP effects on perennial rice seedlings.Inoculated plants generally exhibited an enhanced root system and greater photosynthesis,biomass accumulation and nutrient uptake.Interestingly,two strains of E.cloacae have host genotype-dependent effects on perennial rice growth.The results of this study provide insights into the endophytic bacterial ecosystems of O.longistaminata,which can potentially be used as biofertilizers for sustainable perennial rice productivity.

文摘Several studies have demonstrated that reintroducing crop straw to fields may intensify cadmium(Cd)contamination in agricultural soils.However,the specific effects of long-term straw management practices on Cd concentration and its bioavailability in soil-rice ecosystems remain unclear.In this context,to explore the influence of straw return(SR)and straw removal(NSR)on Cd accumulation in both soil and rice within a double-cropping system,we conducted a four-year field study.Our research study unveiled that NSR consistently decreased soil Cd concentration and its bioavailability by approximately 16.93%–27.30%and 8.23%–21.05%respectively across both study sites.Conversely,SR resulted in a substantial increase in soil Cd bioavailability,ranging from 38.64%–53.95%.Notably,compared to NSR,SR significantly increased total soil Cd by 5.47%–36.58%and increased Cd content in brown rice by 8.00%–100.24%.Remarkably,after four consecutive years of NSR,brown rice Cd concentration at the Changfeng site compiled with national safety standards(GB 2762–2022).Additionally,returning early rice strawsignificantly raised soil Cd bioavailability for the subsequent crop,more so than late rice straw did for the early rice the following year.The findings suggest that traditional double-cropping cultivation with straw removal can effectively mitigate Cd contamination risks in crops and farmland in Hunan Province.

文摘Honglian type-cytoplasmic male sterility(HL-CMS)is caused by the inter-communication between the nucleus and mitochondria.However,the mechanisms by which sterility genes regulate metabolic alterations and changes in mitochondrial morphology in the pollen of HL-CMS remain unclear.In this study,we compared the morphological differences between the pollen of the male sterile line YA and the near-isogenic line NIL-Rf6 using hematoxylin-eosin staining and 4ʹ,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole(DAPI)staining.HL-CMS is characterized by gametophytic sterility,where the aborted pollen grains are empty,and the tapetal layer remains intact.Transmission electron microscopy was employed to observe mitochondrial morphological changes at the microspore stage,revealing significant mitochondrial alterations,characterized by the formation of'large spherical mitochondria',occurred at the binucleate stage in the YA line.Additionally,metabolomics analysis revealed decreased levels of metabolites associated with the carbohydrate and flavonoid pathways.Notably,the decrease in flavonoids was found to contribute to an elevation in reactive oxygen species(ROS)levels.Therefore,we propose a model in which rice fertility is modulated by the levels of pollen carbohydrates and flavonoid metabolites,with impaired mitochondrial energy production and reduced flavonoid biosynthesis as the main causes of ROS accumulation and pollen abortion in rice.

文摘Ratoon rice(Oryza sativa L.)is a sustainable planting model,and its planting area has been increasing year by year.However,there is a lack of literature reviewing the measures and mechanisms to regulate the regeneration rate,as well as the challenges in the production of ratoon rice.This study explores the effects of different varieties,climatic conditions(light and temperature),and cultivation measures(fertilizer management,cropping system,harvest method,water management,and plant growth regulators)on the regeneration rate and grain yield of the ratoon season.It summarizes and analyzes the possible mechanisms that affect the germination of regenerated buds from the perspectives of material accumulation and transportation,hormone metabolism,and molecular mechanisms,and identifies main factors currently limiting the development of ratoon rice.A significant positive correlation between the regeneration rate and grain yield of the ratoon season was found,regulated by varieties,temperatures,light resources,and cultivation measures.Improving the regeneration rate can effectively increase the production of ratoon rice.Notably,rice varieties with high regeneration ability exhibit characteristics such as a suitable growth period,a developed root system,high single-stem weight,a relatively small ratio of grain number to green leaf area,and strong lodging resistance in the main season.Additionally,the germination of regenerated buds is regulated by the accumulation and transport of endogenous hormones(indole-3-acetic acid,gibberellins,and cytokinins),photoassimilates(non-structural carbohydrates),and reactive oxygen metabolism.To further demonstrate the grain yield potential of the ratoon season,improvements are needed in three key areas:the cultivation system of low-stubble ratoon rice,the development of specialized harvesters,and the breeding of rice varieties with high-temperature tolerance during the main crop and low-temperature tolerance during the ratoon crop.

文摘Rice sheath blight(RSB)is a major destructive disease impeding rice production.Identifying key germplasm resources with increased resistance remains a challenge.However,the mechanisms underlying disease resistance are not yet fully understood.Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases(CYP450s)serve biosynthesis and metabolic detoxification functions in plants,but there is limited information about their role in the response induced by RSB.This study demonstrated that CYT02 belongs to the CYP73A100 subfamily and is a typical member of the CYP450s.Overexpression(OE)in rice of the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase cyt02 conferred increased resistance to RSB and increased vegetative tillering.Cyt02 may increase RSB resistance by regulating plant hormone synthesis,regulate reactive oxygen species(ROS)by coordinating the activity of antioxidant enzymes,and initiate phytoalexin synthesis in response to fungal infection.These research findings have laid a foundation for a deeper understanding of the function of cyt02 and offered a potential target gene for breeding rice varieties resistant to sheath blight.
