[0035] The present application is described in detail below. The following embodiments are examples for illustrating the present application, and the present application is not limited only to these embodiments. The present application can be implemented in various ways without departing from the gist thereof.

[0036] In addition, all the documents and publications, patent publications, and other patent documents cited in this specification are incorporated by reference into this specification. Furthermore, this specification contains the contents described in the specification and drawings of Japanese Patent Application (Japanese Patent Application No. 2021-069151) on which the priority of this application is based, filed on April 15, 2021.

[0037] 1. A stevia plant in which the genotype of the position corresponding to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is C / C

[0038] The present application provides a stevia plant (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as “the plant of the present application” or “the stevia plant of the present application”), characterized in that the genotype of the position corresponding to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is C / C (i.e., homozygous for the allele in which the base at the position corresponding to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is C). Hereinafter, the case where the genotype of the position corresponding to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is C / C is sometimes referred to as “the genetic trait of the present application”.

[0039] Stevia is a plant having the scientific name of Stevia Rebaudiana Bertoni.

[0040] The "position corresponding to the 37th position of SEQ ID NO: 1" means the 37th position from the 5' side of the portion of the genome having the same base sequence as SEQ ID NO: 1 when the genome has the portion having the same base sequence as SEQ ID NO: 1. On the other hand, when the genome of the stevia plant has a portion having a base sequence different from but corresponding to SEQ ID NO: 1, the "position corresponding to the 37th position of SEQ ID NO: 1" does not necessarily coincide with the 37th position from the 5' side of the portion corresponding to SEQ ID NO: 1, but can be determined by taking into account the base sequence around the 37th position of SEQ ID NO: 1, etc. For example, the "position corresponding to the 37th position of SEQ ID NO: 1" in the genome of the stevia plant can be determined by alignment analysis of the base sequence of the portion of the genome of the stevia plant corresponding to SEQ ID NO: 1 and the base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.

[0041] For example, when the genome of the stevia plant has a portion having the same base sequence as SEQ ID NO: 1, the "position corresponding to the 37th position of SEQ ID NO: 1" is the 37th position from the 5' side of the portion of the genome having the same base sequence as SEQ ID NO: 1. On the other hand, when the genome of the stevia plant has a portion having a base sequence different from but corresponding to SEQ ID NO: 1, since the genome does not have a portion having the same base sequence as SEQ ID NO: 1, the "position corresponding to the 37th position of SEQ ID NO: 1" does not necessarily coincide with the 37th position from the 5' side of the portion corresponding to SEQ ID NO: 1, but can be determined by taking into account the base sequence around the 37th position of SEQ ID NO: 1, etc. For example, the "position corresponding to the 37th position of SEQ ID NO: 1" in the genome of the stevia plant can be determined by alignment analysis of the base sequence of the portion of the genome of the stevia plant corresponding to SEQ ID NO: 1 and the base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.

[0042] The "portion consisting of a base sequence equivalent to SEQ ID NO: 1" means, for example, a portion consisting of a base sequence having 60% or more, 70% or more, 75% or more, 80% or more, 81% or more, 82% or more, 83% or more, 84% or more, 85% or more, 86% or more, 87% or more, 88% or more, 89% or more, 90% or more, 91% or more, 92% or more, 93% or more, 94% or more, 95% or more, 96% or more, 97% or more, 98% or more, 98.1% or more, 98.4% or more, 98.7% or more, 99% or more, 99.2% or more, 99.5% or more, or 99.8% or more of sequence identity to the base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1.

[0043] In one embodiment, the "portion consisting of a base sequence equivalent to SEQ ID NO: 1" includes a portion of the genome of a stevia plant that can be amplified by PCR using a forward primer that hybridizes to a portion of 15 to 25 bases in length from the 5' end of SEQ ID NO: 1 and a reverse primer that hybridizes to a portion of 15 to 25 bases in length from the 3' end of SEQ ID NO: 1.

[0044] In one embodiment, the "portion consisting of a base sequence equivalent to SEQ ID NO: 1" includes a portion of the genome of a stevia plant that can be amplified by PCR using a forward primer that hybridizes to a portion of 15 to 25 bases in length from the 5' end of SEQ ID NO: 1 and a reverse primer that hybridizes to a portion of 15 to 25 bases in length from the 3' end of SEQ ID NO: 1.

[0045] In one embodiment, the "allele in which the base at the position equivalent to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is C" includes the base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 4, 5, 6, or 20.

[0046] Here, the position equivalent to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is sometimes referred to as the "polymorphic site of the present invention" or the "variant site of the present invention". Furthermore, the mutation from T to C at the position equivalent to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is sometimes referred to as the "polymorphism of the present invention" or the "variant of the present invention". Figure 1 Position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is shown below.

[0047] The above genetic trait can be detected by PCR, TaqMan PCR, sequencing, microarray, Invader, TILLING, RAD (random amplified polymorphic DNA), RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism), PCR-SSCP, AFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism), SSLP (simple sequence length polymorphism), CAPS (cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence), dCAPS (derived cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence), ASO (allele specific oligonucleotide), ARMS, DGGE (denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis), CCM (chemical cleavage of mismatch), DOL, MALDI-TOF / MS, TDI, Locus (labeled probe excess), Molecular Beacon, DASH (dynamicallele specific hybridization), UCAN, ECA, PINPOINT, PROBE (primer oligobase extension), VSET (very short extension), Survivor assay, Sniper assay, Luminex assay, GOOD, LCx, SNaPshot, Mass ARRAY, Pyrosequences, SNP-IT, melting curve analysis, etc., but the detection method is not limited to these.

[0048] In a specific manner, the genetic trait of the present application can be detected based on the following combination of primer sets and restriction enzymes. When a candidate plant has the genetic trait of the present application, for example, PCR amplification is performed using a forward primer having the base sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 8 and a reverse primer having the base sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 9 with respect to the genomic DNA of the candidate plant, and even if treatment based on the restriction enzyme Afl III is performed with respect to the resulting PCR product (about 220 bp long, for example, SEQ ID NO: 9), only a band (for example, SEQ ID NO: 9) of about 220 bp long is obtained. On the other hand, when PCR amplification is performed, for example, a PCR product (about 220 bp long) of SEQ ID NO: 10 is obtained, and by the restriction enzyme Afl III, a restriction enzyme-treated product (for example, SEQ ID NO: 11) of about 34 bp and a restriction enzyme-treated product (for example, SEQ ID NO: 12) of about 186 bp are produced, the candidate plant does not have the genetic trait of the present application.

[0049] With respect to the bp length described above, the so-called "about" means ± 5 bp. The restriction enzyme treatment can be performed in accordance with the conditions recommended by the seller of each restriction enzyme used.

[0050] In one aspect, with respect to the plant body of the present application, the plant body has more of at least one nutrient selected from the group consisting of minerals (e.g., iron, zinc, phosphorus, copper, molybdenum, etc.), amino acids (e.g., alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, valine, etc.), Rebaudioside D, and Rebaudioside M (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "Chemical Feature A of the present application") as compared to a control stevia plant body having a genotype of C / T at a position corresponding to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1. By "has more" is meant, for example, that the content of the above-mentioned component (e.g., content in dried leaves) is more than that of the control stevia plant body when cultivated under the same cultivation conditions. More specifically, for example, the content of the above-mentioned component in dried leaves can be more than 1-fold, 1.01-fold or more, 1.02-fold or more, 1.03-fold or more, 1.04-fold or more, 1.05-fold or more, 1.06-fold or more, 1.07-fold or more, 1.08-fold or more, 1.09-fold or more, 1.1-fold or more, 1.2-fold or more, 1.3-fold or more, 1.4-fold or more, 1.5-fold or more, 1.6-fold or more, 1.7-fold or more, 1.8-fold or more, 1.9-fold or more, 2.0-fold or more, 2.1-fold or more, 2.2-fold or more, 2.3-fold or more, 2.4-fold or more, 2.5-fold or more, 2.6-fold or more, 2.7-fold or more, 2.8-fold or more, 2.9-fold or more, 3.0-fold or more, 3.1-fold or more, 3.2-fold or more, 3.3-fold or more, 3.4-fold or more, 3.5-fold or more, 3.6-fold or more, 3.7-fold or more, 3.8-fold or more, 3.9-fold or more, 4.0-fold or more, 4.1-fold or more, 4.2-fold or more, 4.3-fold or more, 4.4-fold or more, 4.5-fold or more, 4.6-fold or more, 4.7-fold or more, 4.8-fold or more, 4.9-fold or more, 5.0-fold or more, 10-fold or more, 15-fold or more, 20-fold or more, 25-fold or more, 30-fold or more, 35-fold or more, 40-fold or more, 45-fold or more, 50-fold or more, 55-fold or more, 60-fold or more, 65-fold or more, 70-fold or more, 75-fold or more, 80-fold or more, 85-fold or more, 90-fold or more, 95-fold or more, or 100-fold or more than that of the control stevia plant body when cultivated under the same cultivation conditions. The content to be compared is the average value of a plurality of individuals. In addition, dried leaves refer to leaves in which the water content is reduced to 3 to 4% by weight by drying fresh leaves of the stevia plant body of the present application. In addition, Rebaudioside is sometimes abbreviated as "Reb." or "Reb." in the present specification. For example, Rebaudioside D is sometimes abbreviated as "Reb. D" or "RebD".

[0172] 2. Method for producing the plant body of the present application

[0173] The present application provides, on the other hand, a method for producing a stevia plant (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "the production method of the present application"), which is a stevia plant having more of at least one nutrient selected from the group consisting of iron, zinc, phosphorus, copper, molybdenum, amino acids, RebD and RebM, and / or a lower expression amount of FRO2 than a control stevia plant having a genotype of C / T at a position corresponding to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1, characterized by comprising a step of crossing the stevia plant of the present application with a second stevia plant.

[0174] The stevia plant produced by the method can have the same genetic traits as the stevia plant of the present application.

[0175] The content of minerals, amino acids, RebD and RebM, or the range of the weight ratio of RebD and RebM to TSG, the range of the fold of the content or the weight ratio relative to that in the control stevia plant, the range of the fold of the expression amount of FRO2 relative to that in the control stevia plant, and the like, in the stevia plant obtained by the production method of the present application are as described above with respect to the stevia plant of the present application.

[0176] In the production method of the present application, the "crossing" means obtaining a child plant (a stevia plant produced by the production method of the present application (second generation (S2)) by mating the stevia plant of the present application (first generation (S1)) and the second stevia plant (S1). As the method of crossing, backcrossing is preferred. The "backcrossing" means a method of further crossing the child plant (S2) born between the stevia plant of the present application and the second stevia plant with the stevia plant of the present application (i.e., a stevia plant having the genetic traits of the present application) (S1) to produce a stevia plant having the genetic traits of the present application. The second stevia plant (S1) used in the production method of the present application is substantially backcrossed when it has the same genetic traits as the stevia plant of the present application.

[0177] Alternatively, the stevia plant of the present application can be produced by self-fertilization. The self-fertilization can be performed by self-pollination of the stevia plant of the present application by allowing pollen of the stamen of the stevia plant of the present application to reach the pistil of the stevia plant of the present application.

[0178] The stevia plant produced by the production method of the present application has the same genetic traits as the stevia plant of the present application, and thus a stevia plant having the same phenotype as the stevia plant of the present application can be produced by further crossing the stevia plant produced by the production method of the present application with a third stevia plant.

[0179] As other means, the plant body of the present application can also be produced by culturing the above-mentioned tissue culture or plant culture cell in a manner to regenerate a plant body. As for the culture conditions, the same as those of the tissue culture or plant culture cell of the wild-type stevia plant, are well known (Protocols for In Vitro cultures and secondary metabolite analysis of aromatic and medicinal plants, Method in molecular biology, vo. 1391, pp 113-123).

[0180] Further as other means, the plant body of the present application can be produced by introducing the variation of the present application into the genome of the stevia plant body. The introduction of the variation can be performed by a transgenic method, or by a non-transgenic method. As examples of the "non-transgenic method", there can be cited methods of inducing a genetic variation of a host cell (or host plant body) without introducing a foreign gene. As such methods, there can be cited methods of allowing a mutagen to act on a plant cell. As such mutagens, there can be cited ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) and sodium azide, etc. For example, EMS can be treated on a plant cell at a concentration of 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.9%, 1.0%, etc. The treatment time is 1 to 48 hours, 2 to 36 hours, 3 to 30 hours, 4 to 28 hours, 5 to 26 hours, 6 to 24 hours. The treatment procedure itself is well known, and can be performed by immersing a water-absorbing seed subjected to a water-absorbing process in a treatment liquid containing a mutagen at the above-mentioned concentration for the above-mentioned treatment time.

[0181] Further, as an example of a non-transgenic method, a method of irradiating a plant cell with a radioactive ray such as X-ray, γ-ray, ultraviolet ray, or light ray can be exemplified. At this time, the cell after irradiation with an appropriate amount of ultraviolet ray (ultraviolet lamp intensity, distance, time) is cultured in a selection medium or the like, and a cell, callus, or plant body having a target trait can be selected. The irradiation intensity at this time is 0.01 to 100 Gr, 0.03 to 75 Gr, 0.05 to 50 Gr, 0.07 to 25 Gr, 0.09 to 20 Gr, 0.1 to 15 Gr, 0.1 to 10 Gr, 0.5 to 10 Gr, or 1 to 10 Gr, the irradiation distance is 1 cm to 200 m, 5 cm to 100 m, 7 cm to 75 m, 9 cm to 50 m, 10 cm to 30 m, 10 cm to 20 m, or 10 cm to 10 m, and the irradiation time is 1 minute to 2 years, 2 minutes to 1 year, 3 minutes to 0.5 years, 4 minutes to 1 month, 5 minutes to 2 weeks, or 10 minutes to 1 week. The intensity, distance, and time of irradiation differ depending on the kind of radioactive ray or the state of the object of irradiation (cell, callus, or plant body), and can be appropriately adjusted by those skilled in the art.

[0182] Further, methods such as cell fusion, anther culture (haploid culture), and distant hybridization (haploid culture) are also known.

[0183] Generally, a plant cell is sometimes accompanied by mutation during culture, and thus it is preferable to restore it to a plant individual in order to maintain a more stable trait.

[0184] A plant body obtained by performing transgenesis (for example, by genome editing or the like) after using the plant body of the present application as a host (for example, a plant body in which transgenesis is performed using the plant body of the present application as a host, and further, other traits are added) is also not excluded from the scope of the present application.

[0185] The plant body of the present application can be a plant body obtained by a transgenic method or its offspring (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "transgenic plant body"), or a plant body obtained by a non-transgenic method or its offspring (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "non-transgenic plant body").

[0186] 3. Screening method for plant body of the present application

[0190] The absence of the genetic trait of the present application can be determined by detecting the absence of an allele (e.g., an allele comprising the base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 5, 6, or 7) in which the base at the position corresponding to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is C, and / or detecting the presence of an allele (e.g., an allele comprising the base sequence of SEQ ID NO: 16, 17, or 18) in which the base at the position corresponding to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1 is other than C (e.g., T).

[0197] The screening method A of the present application can further comprise a step of evaluating the content of a nutritional component and / or the expression amount of FRO2 in the test stevia plant in which the genetic trait of the present application is detected. The evaluation of the content of a nutritional component and the expression amount of FRO2 is as described in the item of the plant body of the present application. In addition, in this mode, from the test stevia plant bodies in which the genetic trait of the present application is detected, an individual having a high content of a nutritional component and / or an individual having a low expression amount of FRO2 is selected, and is mated with other stevia plant bodies, and a child plant body is obtained, and the screening method A of the present application is also applicable to the child plant body.

In addition, the other sweet gum plants to be crossed can or can not contain the genetic trait of the present application. In the above-described manner, the steps (iv) to (vii) can be repeated multiple times. In this way, a sweet gum plant in which the content of the nutrient component is higher and / or the expression amount of FRO2 is lower can be selected.

[0214] 4. Method for producing extract from plant body and product using the extract

[0215] In a further aspect of the present application, there is provided a method for producing an extract containing at least one kind of nutritional ingredient selected from the group consisting of a mineral (e.g., iron, zinc, phosphorus, copper, molybdenum, and the like), an amino acid (e.g., alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cystine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, valine, and the like), RebD, and RebM (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "the method for producing an extract of the present application"), characterized by a step of obtaining an extract from the plant body of the present application or a seed or a leaf (e.g., dried leaf or fresh leaf) of the plant body. Further, there is provided a method for producing a nutritional ingredient preparation (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "the method for producing a nutritional ingredient preparation of the present application"), characterized by a step of refining at least one kind of the above-described nutritional ingredient from the extract obtained by the method for producing an extract of the present application.

[0217] The extract containing the above-mentioned nutrient components can be obtained, for example, by reacting fresh leaves or dried leaves of the plant body of the present application with a suitable solvent (e.g., an aqueous solvent such as water or an organic solvent such as alcohol, ether, and acetone). For example, the extraction conditions of RebD or RebM, etc. can be referred to the methods described in Ohta et al. or WO2010 / 038911 described above.

[0218] Further, each of the nutrient components contained in the extract containing the above-mentioned nutrient components, such as RebD or RebM, can be concentrated by known methods such as a gradient of ethyl acetate and other organic solvents: water, HPLC, gas chromatography, TOF-MS, UPLC, etc.

[0219] One mode of the extract (hereinafter, referred to as "the extract of the present application") obtained by the method for producing an extract of the present application contains at least one of the above-mentioned nutrient components in a higher amount than a control stevia plant body having a genotype of C / T at a position corresponding to position 37 of SEQ ID NO: 1. The degree of the higher amount compared to the control stevia plant body is as described in the item of the plant body of the present application.

[0220] By mixing the extract of the present application thus obtained and / or the nutrient component concentrate obtained by the method for producing a nutrient component concentrate of the present application (e.g., minerals (e.g., iron, zinc, phosphorus, copper, molybdenum, etc.), amino acids (e.g., alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cystine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, valine, etc.), RebD and / or RebM) with other components, a pharmaceutical product, a flavor, or a food product containing the above-mentioned nutrient components can be produced.

The base sequence involved in the plant body of the stevia plant of the present application contains or consists of a base sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs: 4 to 6, 21, and 22.

[0224] 6. Screening method for plant body rich in nutritional components

[0225] In another aspect, the present application provides a screening method for a plant body high in content of nutritional components (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "screening method B of the present application"), characterized by comprising a step of measuring the expression amount of FRO2. According to the present application, it is clarified that the expression amount of FRO2 is inversely correlated with the content of nutritional components, and thus it is possible to screen a plant body high in content of nutritional components using the expression amount of FRO2 as an index.

[0226] In the screening method B of the present application, an individual low in expression amount of FRO2 can be selected. The expression amount of FRO2 low means, for example, that the expression amount of FRO2 is lower than the median value of the plant group to be examined. In another aspect, the expression amount of FRO2 low sometimes means that the expression amount of FRO2 is contained in the top 50%, 40%, 30%, 25%, 20%, 15%, 10%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, or 1% of the plant group to be examined. In a particular aspect, the expression amount of FRO2 low sometimes means, for example, that the FPKM value of FRO2 analyzed in NGS-based sequencing is 3.2 or less, 3.1 or less, 3.0 or less, 2.9 or less, 2.8 or less, 2.7 or less, 2.6 or less, 2.5 or less, 2.4 or less, 2.3 or less, 2.2 or less, 2.1 or less, 2.0 or less, 1.9 or less, 1.8 or less, 1.7 or less, 1.6 or less, 1.5 or less, 1.4 or less, 1.3 or less, 1.2 or less, 1.1 or less, 1.0 or less, 0.9 or less, 0.8 or less, 0.7 or less, 0.6 or less, or 0.5 or less.

[0227] The determination of the expression level of FRO2 can be performed by any known method for determining the expression level of a gene, such as sequencing based on NGS or the like, various hybridization methods using a nucleic acid molecule that specifically hybridizes to a nucleic acid molecule encoding FRO2 or a unique fragment thereof (e.g., in situ hybridization), Northern blotting, Southern blotting, various PCR methods, immunoprecipitation using a substance that specifically recognizes FRO2 such as an antibody, EIA (e.g., ELISA or the like), RIA (e.g., IRMA, RAST, RIST or the like), Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, immunocytochemistry, flow cytometry, MRI or the like. The genomic sequence, CDS sequence and amino acid sequence of steviol FRO2 are shown in SEQ ID NOs: 13, 14 and 15, respectively. In addition, the sequences of FRO2 genes of other plants are known (e.g., Arabidopsis thaliana: NM_001331284 (base sequence: SEQ ID NO: 23, amino acid sequence: SEQ ID NO: 24), Phlegmariurus phlegmaria: XM_013589350 (base sequence: SEQ ID NO: 25, amino acid sequence: SEQ ID NO: 26), Helianthus annuus: XM_022180093 (base sequence: SEQ ID NO: 27, amino acid sequence: SEQ ID NO: 28), Manihot esculenta: XM_021755804 (base sequence: SEQ ID NO: 29, amino acid sequence: SEQ ID NO: 30)), and the sequences of FRO2 genes of plants other than these can be obtained by homology analysis of sequences obtained by sequencing or the like. In the determination of the expression level of FRO2, any plant tissue in which FRO2 can be expressed can be used, such as leaves, stems, roots, flowers or the like.

[0228] As the nutritional component, there is no particular limitation, and examples include minerals (e.g., iron, zinc, phosphorus, copper, molybdenum or the like), amino acids (e.g., alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cystine, glutamine, glutamic acid, glycine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine, valine or the like), sweet components such as RebD and RebM, and the like.

[0229] The screening method B of the present application can further include a step of evaluating the content of a nutritional component in a test plant in which the expression level of FRO2 is low. The evaluation of the content of a nutritional component is as described in the item of the plant body of the present application. In addition, in this mode, from the test steviol plant body in which the genetic trait of the present application is detected, an individual having a high content of a nutritional component is selected, and is mated with another plant body, and a child plant body is obtained, and the screening method B of the present application is also applicable to this child plant body. Thus, the screening method B of the present application can include one or more of the following steps.

[0230] (i) a step of determining the expression level of FRO2 in a test plant,

[0231] (ii) a step of evaluating the content of the nutrient component in the plant tissue in which the expression amount of FRO2 is low,

[0232] (iii) a step of selecting an individual in which the content of the nutrient component is high from among the plant individuals in which the expression amount of FRO2 is low,

[0233] (iv) a step of crossing the selected individual with another plant individual,

[0234] (v) a step of measuring the expression amount of FRO2 in the child plant individual obtained by the crossing,

[0235] (vi) a step of evaluating the content of the nutrient component in the plant tissue in which the expression amount of FRO2 is low,

[0236] (vii) a step of selecting an individual in which the content of the nutrient component is high from among the child plant individuals in which the expression amount of FRO2 is low.

[0237] The individual in which the content of the nutrient component is high, which is selected, can be, for example, an individual in which the content of the nutrient component is as high as the top 50%, the top 40%, the top 30%, the top 25%, the top 20%, the top 15%, the top 10%, the top 5%, the top 4%, the top 3%, the top 2%, or the top 1% of the plant individuals in which the genetic trait of the present application is detected, and the like. Further, the expression amount of FRO2 in the other plant individual with which the crossing is performed can or can not be low. In the above-described manner, the steps (iv) to (vii) can be repeated a plurality of times. In this way, a plant individual in which the content of the nutrient component is higher can be screened.

[0238] Example

[0239] The following describes the examples and the like to which the present application relates, but the present application is not limited to these specific modes.

[0240] [Example 1] Correlation between RebD and RebM contents and genotype C / C

[0241] Based on commercially available stevia seeds, individual selection was performed based on growth condition, leaf shape, RebA, RebD, RebM content, and the like to obtain an individual group I. In the individual group I, genomic DNA was extracted from fresh leaves of each individual, and sequencing based on NGS (HiSeq 2500, Illumina) was performed. In addition, the content of steviol glycoside contained in the fresh leaves of each individual was quantified by LC-MS / MS (Shimadzu LCMS8050). Specifically, 0.25 g of fresh leaves was dried by freeze-drying, and 0.05 g of the dried and pulverized product was put into pure water. Extraction was performed by 20-minute ultrasonic treatment, and after centrifugation and filtration, 0.33 mL of an extract was obtained. LC-MS / MS analysis of the extract was performed by LCMS8050 ion mode (Shimadzu LCMS8050), and the concentration of steviol glycoside (RebA, RebB, RebC, RebD, RebE, RebF, RebG, RebM, RebN, and stevioside) was quantified. The average content of RebD, RebM, RebA, and TSG in the dried leaves of the individual of each genotype (% DW) and the proportion of RebD, RebM in the TSG content (%) is shown in Table 1, and the ratio of the average content of each steviol glycoside in the individual of genotype C / T or the proportion of the RebD, RebM content in the TSG content in the individual of genotype C / C is 1 is shown in Table 2, and the distribution of the RebD, RebM content in the dried leaves of the individual of each genotype (% DW) is shown in Figure 2 As shown in these results, the individual with high content of RebD and RebM is often genotype C / C. For example, the individual with a total content of RebD and RebM in the dried leaves of 1.3% by weight or more all had genotype C / C, and in 75% of the individuals with genotype C / C, the total content of RebD and RebM in the dried leaves was 1.3% by weight or more. On the other hand, in the individual with genotype C / T, no individual with a total content of RebD and RebM in the dried leaves of 1.3% by weight or more was confirmed. In addition, with respect to the RebA content and the TSG content, one of the individuals with genotype C / C had a tendency to be lower compared to the individual with genotype C / T. In addition, the TSG content means the total content of RebA, RebB, RebC, RebD, RebE, RebF, RebG, RebM, RebN, and stevioside, and RebDM means the total of RebD and RebM.

[0249] [Example 2] Correlation between FRO2 expression amount and genotype C / C

[0250] The SNP involved in the genotype C / C is located within the FRO2 gene. Total RNA was extracted from fresh leaves of each individual of the individual group I, and sequencing based on NGS (HiSeq 2500, Illumina) was performed. From the obtained data, the FPKM value of the FRO2 gene in each individual was calculated. As a result, the genotype C / C was more often seen in individuals in which the FRO2 gene expression amount was low (FPKM value) in dried leaves. Figure 3 For example, about 69% of individuals in which the FRO2 gene expression amount (FPKM value) in dried leaves was 2.5 or less had the genotype C / C, and in addition, 31% of individuals having the genotype C / C had the FRO2 gene expression amount (FPKM value) in dried leaves of 2.5 or less. In contrast, in individuals having the genotype C / T, individuals in which the FRO2 gene expression amount (FPKM value) in dried leaves was 2.5 or less were about 21%. From the above results, it was suggested that there was a tendency for the expression amount of the FRO2 gene to decrease by having the genotype C / C, as compared to individuals having the genotype C / T.

[0251] [Example 3] Correlation between mineral content and genotype C / C

[0252] With respect to representative 2 individuals of each genotype in the individual group I, the mineral components contained in the dried leaf extract were quantified. Fresh leaves were collected from each individual, and heat-dried at 65°C for about 17 hours. To each 100 mg of the obtained dried leaves, 1 mL of hot water (95°C or more) was added, and after mixing with a stirrer for 5 minutes, 10 μL of nitric acid was added to each 1 mL, and left overnight. The obtained sample was provided to ICP-MS (Agilent 7500cx, Agilent Technologies), and the concentration of each element was measured (using the attached MassHunter Workstation software). The average content of each mineral component in the dried leaves of individuals of each genotype is shown in Table 3, and the fold of the average content of each mineral component in individuals of the genotype C / C when the average content of each mineral component in individuals of the genotype C / T is 1 is shown in Tables 4 and 5, respectively. Figure 4Any one of the mineral components showed a content in the individuals of genotype C / C that was higher than that in the individuals of genotype C / T.

[0260] [Example 4] Correlation between amino acid content and genotype C / C

[0261] With respect to two representative individuals of each genotype in the individual group I, the free amino acids contained in the dried leaf extract were quantified. Fresh leaves were collected from each individual and heat-dried at 65°C for about 17 hours. To each 100 mg of the resulting dried leaves, 5 mL of hot water (95°C or higher) was added, and after mixing with a stirrer for 5 minutes, 10 minutes of ultrasonic treatment and 10 minutes of centrifugal treatment at 12,000 rpm were performed, and the supernatant was collected. The resulting supernatant sample was subjected to HPLC (Chromaster 5210 / 5260, Hitachi High-Tech) to measure the concentration of each amino acid (using Empower 3, Waters). The average content of each amino acid in the dried leaves of the individuals of each genotype is shown in Tables 5 to 6, and the ratio of the average content of each amino acid in the individuals of genotype C / C when the average content of each amino acid in the individuals of genotype C / T is 1 is shown in Tables 7 and 8, respectively. Figure 5 Any one of the amino acids showed a content in the individuals of genotype C / C that was higher than that in the individuals of genotype C / T.

[0273] [Example 5] Correlation between RebD and RebM content and FRO2 expression amount

[0274] When the total content of RebD and RebM of each individual of population I obtained in Examples 1-2 was plotted against the FRO2 expression amount, it was confirmed that the two were inversely correlated Figure 6 ). In addition, the average values of the contents of RebD and RebM in the top / bottom 50%, 25%, 15%, and 10% of the individuals in terms of FRO2 expression amount are shown in Table 8.

[0275] [Table 8]

[0276] Table 8 Relationship between FRO2 expression amount and RebD and RebM content

[0278] As shown by these results, the average values of the contents of RebD and RebM were significantly lower in the group of individuals with low FRO2 expression amount than in the group of individuals with high FRO2 expression amount. The results of comparison of the total contents of RebD and RebM in the population of individuals ranked bottom 15% in terms of FRO2 expression amount and the population of individuals ranked top 15% in terms of FRO2 expression amount are shown in Figure 7 . Further, it was clarified that there was a stronger correlation between the ratio of the total content of RebD and RebM to the TSG content (RebDM / TSG) and the FRO2 expression amount Figure 8 ).
