Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of crop breeding, and in particular to a method for breeding black rice with high yield and good taste. Background Art
[0002] Rice is rich in carbohydrates and is the main source of energy for the human body. It is also the staple food of more than half of the world's population. China is the largest rice producer and consumer. High yield has always been the primary goal of Chinese rice breeding. However, with the improvement of living standards, people's requirements for rice quality are also rising. On the basis of being full, the taste characteristics and nutrition of rice have also received widespread attention.
[0003] As a representative of black food, black rice has significant kidney-tonifying and qi-invigorating effects. As a precious colored rice, it has higher content of protein, essential amino acids, dietary fiber and unsaturated fatty acids than white rice. Studies have shown that black rice is rich in active substances such as anthocyanins, specific phenolic acids, alkaloids, carotenoids, etc., which are not found in white rice, and these compounds have biological functions such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-aging. Whether it is healthy people or people with certain chronic diseases (such as hypertension, diabetes, etc.), they can eat black rice in moderation to supplement nutrition and regulate the body. A large number of studies have confirmed that eating black rice or its extracts can help prevent some fatal diseases and can assist in the treatment of a variety of chronic diseases, such as atherosclerosis, obesity, type II diabetes, hyperlipidemia, osteoporosis and certain cancers. At present, many rice breeding experts have proposed to use black rice instead of white rice as a staple food to more comprehensively meet the human body's nutritional needs. This development can increase the edible part rich in essence by about 30%.
[0004] However, since black rice is mainly consumed in the form of brown rice, the disadvantages of brown rice, such as long cooking time, hard texture and rough taste, pose certain challenges to consumer acceptance. Therefore, it is crucial to improve the steaming and cooking taste quality of black rice and increase consumer acceptance of black rice.
[0005] The cooking and eating quality of black rice mainly depends on the physicochemical properties of its main components. The starch content accounts for 75% to 84% of the dry weight of black rice, which is similar to white rice and brown rice, and is mainly composed of amylose and amylopectin. Amylose content (AC), gel consistency (GC) and alkali digestibility value (ASV) are key indicators for evaluating the cooking and eating quality of black rice, and these traits are mainly determined by the genotype of triploid endosperm. Starch synthase-related genes determine the cooking and eating qualities (ECQs) of rice by affecting the complex genetic network formed by amylose content (AC), gel consistency (GC) and gelatinization temperature (GT).
[0006] Wx and ALK are the main genes that affect AC, GC, and GT. Wx is the only gene that has a major effect on AC and GC, but has a minor effect on GT; ALK is the only gene that has a major effect on GT, but has a minor effect on AC and GC. The ALK gene contains 8 exons. There are 3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the 8th exon, located at Ex8-733bp (A / G) and Ex8-864 / 865bp (G / T and C / T), respectively. The polymorphism differences at these three sites produce three types of allelic variations, namely A-GC, G-GC, and G-TT. ALK a (A-GC), ALK b (G-TT) regulates low GT, ALK c (G-GC) regulates high GT, and these three ALK alleles are considered to be the main reasons for GT diversity among rice varieties. Therefore, how to use Wx and ALK genes to create new black rice indica germplasm with high yield and good taste through hybrid breeding, and cultivate new black rice indica rice varieties with low amylose content and excellent comprehensive agronomic traits is crucial to the development of black rice related industries. Summary of the invention

[0033] The present invention provides a method for breeding black rice with high yield and good taste, which comprises the following steps:
[0034] (1) A black rice with an amylose content of less than 2% and a taste score of more than 80 points is used as a parent and is hybridized with a high-quality indica rice with high yield and excellent comprehensive agronomic traits to obtain F1 generation seeds.
[0035] (2) The F1 generation is self-pollinated and the F2 generation seeds with a fruit set rate exceeding 85% are harvested.
[0036] (3) In the F2 generation population, individual plants with black seed coat, a fruiting rate of more than 85%, and excellent comprehensive traits were selected, and seeds were harvested from the individual plants. The Wx and ALK genotypes of these individual seeds were analyzed using molecular marker methods, and the wx and ALK genotypes were selected. b The seeds of the homozygous black rice plants were harvested to obtain F3 generation seeds.
[0037] (4) In the F3 generation population, single plants with excellent comprehensive agronomic traits and a fruit set rate of more than 85% were selected, and seeds were harvested by single plant. At the same time, seeds were mixed and harvested according to strains. The harvested seeds were subjected to indoor physiological and biochemical analysis. Strains with a fruit set rate of more than 85%, excellent comprehensive agronomic traits, amylose content of less than 2%, and a taste score of more than 80 points were selected, and seeds were harvested by single plant to obtain F4 generation seeds.
[0038] (5) Among the F4 generation lines, individual plants with a fruit set rate higher than 85% were selected, and seeds of the mixed lines were harvested for physical and chemical quality testing of rice. Lines with a fruit set rate higher than 85%, an alkali consumption value higher than 5.0, a gel consistency greater than 60 mm, and a taste score higher than 80 points were selected, and seeds were harvested individually to obtain F5 generation seeds.

[0040] Example 1
[0041] Embodiment 1 of the present invention provides a method for breeding black rice with high yield and good taste, and the specific steps are as follows:
[0042] (1) The cooking and eating quality of black rice was identified by manual tasting. Black rice indica varieties with AAC content less than 2%, gel consistency (GC) higher than 60 mm, alkali elimination value (ASV) higher than 5, and manual tasting taste score greater than 80 points were selected from the existing black rice indica resources. The wx and ALK-carrying indica varieties independently bred by the Hunan Hybrid Rice Research Center were selected. b The genotype of black rice variety purple pulp black rice has an amylose content of 0.4%, a taste score of 86.5 points, an alkali elimination value of 6.5, a gel consistency of 90mm, and good cooking and taste quality. Researchers of this purple pulp black rice can contact Bai Bin, a breeder at the Hunan Hybrid Rice Research Center, to purchase it, but the fruit setting rate of this purple pulp black rice is only 25%, and the yield is low (Table 1).
[0043] Sensory evaluation was conducted in accordance with the national standard GB / T 15682-2008. Taste evaluation includes aroma, appearance, palatability (viscosity, hardness and elasticity), mouthfeel and cold rice texture. Taste value: ≤50 points for very poor; 51-60 for poor; 61-70 for fair; 71-80 for good; 81-90 for good; 90 for very good.
[0044] (2) Purple black rice was used as the female parent, and R911, a variety bred by Kenfeng Changjiang Seed Technology Co., Ltd., which has high yield and excellent comprehensive agronomic traits, was used as the male parent. R911 carries Wx b , ALK c Gene (see Figure 2 , Figure 3 ), room temperature setting rate 82%, amylose content 13%, alkali elimination value 2.5, gel consistency 75mm.
[0045] (3) In the spring of 2019, at the Changsha Experimental Base, purple black rice was hybridized with R911 to obtain 26 F1 seeds.
[0046] (4) In the autumn of 2019, F1 plants were planted at the Sanya Experimental Base in Hainan Province and allowed to self-pollinate. After maturity, F1 plants with a fruit set rate of more than 85% were selected, and 3,000 F2 seeds were harvested;
[0047] (5) In the spring of 2020, the F2 population was planted in Changsha, and individual plants with black seed coat, more than 85% fruit set rate, and excellent comprehensive traits were selected. The individual plants were harvested by division, and a total of 289 plants were selected. Molecular marker detection and tracking analysis screened out the wx and ALK b There were 68 homozygous genotype plants, and the F3 generation seeds were obtained by harvesting the individual plants.
[0048] The sequences used for molecular marker detection and tracking analysis are:
[0049] SEQ ID NO.1-wx-F: GACCGTCGTCGTTCAACT;
[0050] SEQ ID NO.2-wx-R: TGCACCACAAAAACTTGGGT;
[0051] SEQ ID NO.3-ALK-F: GCATCTCCTGCTGTTTGTTA;
[0052] SEQ ID NO. 4-ALK-R: CATTTTGACGGCACAACTTC.
[0053] The results of molecular marker detection are as follows Figure 2 , Figure 3 shown.
[0054] (6) In the autumn of 2020, the selected seeds of the F3 generation were planted individually in the experimental field in Sanya, Hainan, to obtain the F3 generation strains. In the F3 generation population, individual plants with excellent comprehensive agronomic traits and a fruit set rate of more than 85% were selected, and seeds were harvested by individual plants. At the same time, seeds were mixed and harvested according to strains, and the harvested seeds were subjected to indoor physiological and biochemical analysis. 35 strains with an amylose content of less than 2% and a taste score of more than 80 points were selected, and the seeds were harvested by individual plants to obtain F4 generation seeds.
[0055] (7) In the spring of 2021, select the excellent individual plants with excellent comprehensive agronomic traits and a fruit set rate of more than 85% from the F4 generation strains. At the same time, collect the seeds of each strain according to the strain, and measure the rice quality. Select the strains with alkali elimination value higher than 5.0, gel consistency greater than 60 mm, and taste value higher than 80 points, and collect the seeds by individual plant division to obtain F5 generation seeds.
