摘要
Glutelin is the most significant seed storage protein and is regarded as an important nutrient quality trait in rice. Research on the genetic basis of the glutelin content distinction in rice will provide more choices for the diets of people with kidney disease and diabetes. The GluA and GluB1 genes play important roles in the process of glutelin synthesis. In this study, 128 Japonica rice accessions with wide geographic distributions were collected to construct the association panel. Among all the 128 accessions, both sequences of the GluA and GluB1 genes were obtained, and nucleotide polymorphisms were detected. A total of 46 SNPs and eight InDels, six SNPs and four InDels were found in the GluA and GluB1 gene sequences, respectively. Eight haplotypes and two haplotypes were classified based on the SNPs in the coding region of the GluA and GluB1 genes, respectively. Moreover, the association of the polymorphic sites in the two genes with glutelin content in the tested population was estimated. The results revealed that five SNPs in the GluA gene, one SNP and one InDel in the GluB1 gene were associated with glutelin content at a significant level (P < 0.01). Corresponding markers were also designed to check the alleles of GluA and GluB1 genes. These results suggested that polymorphisms in the GluA and GluB1 genes in rice could be utilized in molecular marker-assisted selection to improve the nutrient quality of rice breeding programmes.
