Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of corn molecular breeding and biotechnology, and particularly relates to a nucleic acid sequence for detecting corn stalk rot and a detection method. BACKGROUND

[0002] Corn (Zea mays L.) is a major food and feed crop in China, and is also an important industrial raw material and energy plant, playing a vital role in the national economy and agricultural production. Corn stalk rot is a global soil-borne disease that seriously harms corn production, mainly causing early decline of plants, insufficient grain filling, and yield reduction. The diseased plants are prone to stalk lodging, which restricts the mechanized harvesting of corn in China. The dominant pathogenic bacteria causing corn stalk rot in China are Fusarium graminearum and Pythium inflatum. Cultivating and promoting stalk rot-resistant varieties is the most economical and effective control approach.

[0003] Due to the great influence of pathogenic bacteria, environment, and genotype on stalk rot, and the difficulty in finding high and multi-resistant sources, corn stalk rot is becoming more and more serious. At present, most of the located resistance sites have low effects, and few disease-resistant genes have been cloned. Further in-depth exploration of corn stalk rot resistance QTL and disease-resistant genes, and development of molecular markers closely linked to QTL, will provide strong support for the aggregation of multiple resistance genes in stalk rot-resistant molecular breeding, and are expected to improve the resistance of corn to stalk rot. KASP markers do not need to be typed according to the size of DNA fragments, and can get rid of the traditional gel electrophoresis method which is relatively cumbersome, low-throughput, and expensive, and is more suitable for the high-throughput molecular detection platform currently rapidly developing. Therefore, the development of low-cost KASP molecular markers for corn resistance to Fusarium graminearum stalk rot QTL suitable for high-throughput molecular detection platform is of great significance for popularizing the application of molecular marker technology and improving the efficiency and level of corn breeding for stalk rot resistance in China.

[0089] If the fluorescence of the primer working solution 1 shows only the fluorescence signal of the FAM group, the Ks7 (i.e. SNP1) genotype of the corn to be tested is AA (i.e. the homozygous type of Ks7 as A in the corn genome); if it shows only the fluorescence signal of the HEX group, the Ks7 genotype of the corn to be tested is GG (i.e. the homozygous type of Ks7 as G in the corn genome); if it shows both the fluorescence signal of the FAM group and the fluorescence signal of the HEX group, the Ks7 genotype of the corn to be tested is AG (i.e. the heterozygous type of Ks7 as A and G in the corn genome). If the fluorescence of the primer working solution 2 shows only the fluorescence signal of the FAM group, the Ks8.1 (i.e. SNP2) genotype of the corn to be tested is AA (i.e. the homozygous type of Ks8.1 as A in the corn genome); if it shows only the fluorescence signal of the HEX group, the Ks8.1 genotype of the corn to be tested is GG (i.e. the homozygous type of Ks8.1 as G in the corn genome); if it shows both the fluorescence signal of the FAM group and the fluorescence signal of the HEX group, the Ks8.1 genotype of the corn to be tested is AG (i.e. the heterozygous type of Ks8.1 as A and G in the corn genome).

[0090] Therefore, the genotype of the corn plant to be tested can be defined according to the following rules:

[0091] AAGG genotype: if the fluorescence of the reaction system using the primer working solution 1 shows only the fluorescence signal of the FAM group and the fluorescence of the reaction system using the primer working solution 2 shows only the fluorescence signal of the HEX group, the Ks7 (i.e. SNP1) genotype of the corn to be tested is AA and the Ks8.1 (i.e. SNP2) genotype of the corn to be tested is GG. The identification accuracy of AAGG is = the number of AAGG genotype plants resistant to stem rot / the number of AAGG genotype plants x 100%.

[0092] AAAA genotype: if the fluorescence in the reaction system using primer working solution 1 shows only the fluorescence signal of FAM group and the fluorescence in the reaction system using primer working solution 2 shows only the fluorescence signal of FAM group, then the Ks7 (i.e. SNP1) genotype of the corn to be tested is AA and the Ks8.1 (i.e. SNP2) genotype of the corn to be tested is AA. The identification accuracy of AAAA = resistant AAAA genotype plants / AAAA genotype plants x 100%.

[0093] GGGG genotype: if the fluorescence in the reaction system using primer working solution 1 shows only the fluorescence signal of HEX group and the fluorescence in the reaction system using primer working solution 2 shows only the fluorescence signal of HEX group, then the Ks7 (i.e. SNP1) genotype of the corn to be tested is GG and the Ks8.1 (i.e. SNP2) genotype of the corn to be tested is GG. The identification accuracy of GGGG = resistant GGGG genotype plants / GGGG genotype plants x 100%.

[0094] GGAA genotype: if the fluorescence in the reaction system using primer working solution 1 shows only the fluorescence signal of HEX group and the fluorescence in the reaction system using primer working solution 2 shows only the fluorescence signal of FAM group, then the Ks7 (i.e. SNP1) genotype of the corn to be tested is GG and the Ks8.1 (i.e. SNP2) genotype of the corn to be tested is AA. The identification accuracy of GGAA = resistant GGAA genotype plants / GGAA genotype plants x 100%.

[0095] Example 2, detecting corn stalk rot resistance using the method of Example 1

[0096] I. Actual determination of corn stalk rot resistance

[0097] 1. Field design

[0098] The 240 RIL (RIL family) of the parents KA105 and KB204 and their combinations were identified for stalk rot resistance in Yangling, Shaanxi and Sanyuan, Shaanxi in 2019-2020. The site and year were uniformly defined as the environment, abbreviated as "year + first letter of the site", such as 2019YL. The field test adopted an incomplete randomized block design, 2 replicates were set in each environment, single row planting, row length 4m, row spacing 0.6m, density 5500 plants / acre. The field management measures were the same as the management of local field corn.

[0099] 2. Pathogen culture

[0100] Fusarium graminearum strain culture: single spore isolated pathogen strains were inoculated on PDA (Potato Dextrose Agar) medium, and dark culture was performed in a 25 °C constant temperature incubator for 5-7 days. When the mycelium grew on the surface of the medium, it was inoculated on the sterile corn kernel medium together with the medium, and the inoculum of Fusarium graminearum was propagated. Fusarium graminearum inoculum propagation: single spore isolated pathogen strains were inoculated on PDA (Potato Dextrose Agar) medium, and dark culture was performed in a 25 °C constant temperature incubator for 5-7 days. When the mycelium grew on the surface of the medium, it was inoculated on the sterile corn kernel medium together with the medium, and the inoculum of Fusarium graminearum was propagated. PDA solid medium preparation: fresh potatoes were washed, peeled, and cut into pieces. 200 g of the potatoes were boiled in boiling water for 30 min, 8 layers of gauze were used for filtration, and the filtrate was collected. 20 g of glucose was weighed and dissolved, 15 g of agar powder was weighed, heated and dissolved, and then poured into the filtrate. The solution was stirred uniformly, and the volume was made up to 1 L. High-temperature high-pressure sterilization was performed at 121 °C / 20 min, and the solution was divided and cooled for use or stored in a 4 °C refrigerator.

[0101] 3. Field inoculation

[0102] The soil burial wound root method was used for field inoculation during the tasseling stage of corn. The inoculated kernels were stirred and mixed before inoculation. A pit was dug near the roots of the plants at a distance of 5-10 cm, and part of the root was cut to create a wound. 75-85 g of corn kernels with the fungus were placed in the pit, and the soil was covered and compacted. After the inoculation was completed, field irrigation was performed to keep the soil moist and promote the reproduction and infection of the pathogen.

[0103] 4. Trait investigation

[0104] After 50-55 days of inoculation, the split stem method was used to identify the occurrence of corn stalk rot in the field. The plants were cut at the fruiting site and split longitudinally along the stem. The infection of the pathogen and the degree of pith tissue necrosis at the root and stem base were observed, and the stalk rot disease rating scale (DRS) was used for phenotypic identification of stalk rot. There were 5 grades:

[0105] Grade 1: highly resistant, normal plant, no obvious disease;

[0106] Grade 3: resistant, normal stem surface of the plant, brown lesions appeared at the stem tip;

[0107] Grade 5: moderately resistant, soft and faded stem base of the plant, with obvious water spots; part of the pith tissue between the first and second nodes at the stem base shriveled and decomposed, with brown lesions;

[0108] 7: sick, the lower stem of the plant gradually changed from green to brown, the stem was soft and severely dehydrated, the internal stem pith tissue was decomposed into a filamentous shape, severely atrophied, and the stem nodes appeared white or magenta-colored mycelium; the root system was soft, dry, sparse, but not collapsed; the ear began to droop;

[0109] 9: highly susceptible, the stem of the plant was hollow and constricted, only necrotic vascular bundle tissue remained inside the stem, the stem nodes and internodes were black and had a magenta mark; the root system was sparse, rotten and hollow, the plant was folded or collapsed; the bract of the female ear was dry and loose, and the female ear was drooping.

[0110] Select 10 plants with consistent growth vigor from each family, and record the stem rot disease classification one by one. The average value is used as the phenotype value of each family. The average value of the disease classification of a single family is used to calculate the BLUP value representing the multi-environment combined analysis phenotype value of the family. The BLUP value of the disease classification is between 1 and 2, which is highly resistant; between 2.01 and 3, which is resistant; between 3.01 and 5, which is moderately resistant; between 5.01 and 7, which is susceptible; between 7.01 and 9, which is highly susceptible. Record the number of days from sowing to 50% of the plants shedding pollen for each family.

[0111] 5. Phenotype data analysis

[0112] In order to evaluate the significance of genotype, environment variance and the interaction between the two, the "PROC MIXED" program in SAS (V9.2) software was used to calculate the variance components, and the mixed linear model was: y = μ + gi + ej + ε, where μ represents the total mean of the phenotype, gi is the genotype effect of the 'i'th family, ej is the effect of the 'j'th environment, and ε is the random residual term. Genotype as a fixed effect, flowering period as a covariate, environment, intra-environment repetition, genotype and environment interaction as random effects. The variance analysis result value is used to calculate the broad-sense heritability (H 2 ) of stem rot resistance: where, is the genetic variance, represents the genotype and environment interaction variance, is the error term, n is the number of environments; r is the number of repetitions. In order to eliminate the influence of environmental variation on the phenotype, the best linear unbiased prediction (Best Linear Unbiased Prediction, BLUP) of each family is estimated by the mixed linear model of SAS (V9.2), and the BLUP value is used as the data of multi-environment combined analysis to draw the phenotype distribution histogram of each trait, calculate the correlation coefficient of the phenotype, and locate the multi-environment combined QTL.

[0113] 6. Identification of corn stem rot resistance using Ks7 and Ks8.1

[0114] The genotypes of Ks7 and Ks8.1 of the corns to be tested shown in Table 1 were detected according to the method of Example 2.

[0115] The disease grading and genotype results of the corns to be tested shown in Table 1 are shown in Table 3, and the heterozygous genotypes are not listed in Table 3. Among the 239 recombinant inbred lines in addition to the target QTL fine mapping family 638RIL-31 in the Pop.1 population, a total of 91 recombinant inbred lines were homozygous genotypes at the Ks7 and Ks8.1 molecular markers.

[0116] The phenotypic identification of the RIL family was based on the selection of 10 plants with consistent growth in a single environment, and the occurrence of stem rot was observed and recorded one by one. Finally, the average value of the 10 materials was taken as the phenotype value of the family; the disease grading of a single family was analyzed by using the BLUP value.

[0126] The single statistical results of molecular marker Ks7 and molecular marker Ks8.1 are shown in Table 5 and Table 6. The BLUP value of the recombinant inbred lines with genotype AA at SNP1 (i.e. Ks7) site was significantly lower than that of the recombinant inbred lines with genotype GG (P<0.001). The BLUP value of the recombinant inbred lines with genotype GG at SNP2 (i.e. Ks8.1) site was significantly lower than that of the recombinant inbred lines with genotype AA (P<0.001).

[0133] The above results show that SNP molecular markers Ks7 and Ks8.1 closely linked to the target QTL can be used for identification of corn stalk rot resistance. In breeding of corns resistant to stalk rot, it is best to select corns with SNP site Ks7 genotype AA and SNP site Ks8.1 genotype GG, or corns with SNP site Ks7 genotype AA or SNP site Ks8.1 genotype GG as parents for breeding, or only corns with SNP site Ks7 genotype AA as parents for breeding.

[0139] 1. QTL positioning of corn F. graminearum stalk rot resistance

[0140] Method:

[0141] (1) Trait investigation

[0142] Stalk rot incidence was evaluated in the field 50-55 days after inoculation with Fusarium graminearum pathogen by the split stem method. The plants were cut at the earing position and split longitudinally along the stem to observe the pathogen infection and the extent of pith tissue necrosis at the root and stem base. The disease rating scale (DRS) was used to evaluate the stalk rot phenotype, as described in detail in Example 2, Section 4.

[0143] Ten plants with uniform growth vigor were selected from each family, and the disease rating scale was observed and recorded for each plant. The average value was used as the phenotype value of each family. The mean of the disease rating scale of each family was used to calculate the BLUP value representing the multi-environment joint analysis phenotype value of the family. The BLUP value of the disease rating scale was between 1-2, which was highly resistant; between 2.01-3, which was resistant; between 3.01-5, which was moderately resistant; between 5.01-7, which was susceptible; between 7.01-9, which was highly susceptible. The number of days from sowing to 50% of the plants shedding pollen was investigated and recorded for each family.

[0144] (2) Phenotype data analysis

[0145] To evaluate the significance of genotype, environment variance, and the interaction between the two, the "PROC MIXED" program in SAS (V9.2) was used to calculate the variance components. The mixed linear model was: y = μ + gi + ej + ε, where μ represents the overall mean of the phenotype, gi is the genotype effect of the 'i'th family, ej is the effect of the 'j'th environment, and ε is the random residual term. Genotype is a fixed effect, flowering period is a covariate, and environment, intra-environment replication, and genotype-environment interaction are random effects. The variance analysis result value is used to calculate the Broad-sense heritability (H 2 ) of stalk rot resistance: where, is the genetic variance, represents the genotype-environment interaction variance, is the error term, n is the number of environments, and r is the number of replicates. To eliminate the effect of environmental variation on the phenotype, the Best Linear Unbiased Prediction (BLUP) of each family was estimated using the SAS (V9.2) mixed linear model. The BLUP value was used as the multi-environment joint analysis data to draw the phenotype distribution histogram of each trait, calculate the phenotypic correlation coefficient, and perform multi-environment joint QTL mapping.

[0146] (3) Linkage map construction: At the 5-6 leaf stage of maize, 5 young leaves with consistent growth vigor were selected from each family and mixed. The genomic DNA was extracted using the conventional CTAB method. Genotyping analysis was performed using the Maize6H-60K chip independently developed by the Maize Research Center of Beijing Academy of Agriculture and Forestry Sciences. The QTL ICImapping 4.2 software was used to construct the linkage map. The Kosambi function was selected to estimate the genetic distance. Finally, 48087 polymorphic SNP markers were screened, and 7200 bin markers were obtained after removing redundant markers.

[0147] (4) QTL mapping: Based on the constructed high-density genetic linkage map, the phenotypic values of the four stem rot evaluation indexes in the mapping population were analyzed in a single environment and multiple environments to detect the resistance QTL of Fusarium head blight. The composite interval mapping method (CIM) of Windows QTLCartographer V2.5 software was used for initial positioning and genetic effect analysis. The threshold value was set as LOD = 3, and the confidence interval of the target QTL was determined according to the 2-LOD value on both sides of the LOD value peak. Results: The resistance of RIL population and parent materials to F. graminearum stem rot was identified in four environments (2019YL, 2019SY, 2020YL and 2020SY). The statistical analysis results showed that the stem rot resistance of the resistant parent KA105 and the susceptible parent KB204 was significantly different (Table 7). The RIL population showed extensive continuous variation in different environments, indicating that the stem rot resistance was a quantitative trait controlled by multiple genes.

[0150] Note: 2019YL: Yangling in 2019; 2019SY: Sanyuan in 2019; 2020YL: Yangling in 2020; 2020SY: Sanyuan in 2020; BLUP: joint analysis of multiple environments.

[0151] In Pop.1 population, the variation range of disease classification was 1-9, the mean was between 2.91-5.43, and the coefficient of variation was 33%-65%. The disease classification in a single environment showed a skewed normal distribution, and the BLUP value in multiple environment joint analysis showed a normal distribution. The joint variance analysis results showed that (Table 7), the difference between genotypes in RIL population was extremely significant, the difference between environments and the interaction between genotypes and environments was extremely significant, and the genetic variance estimate was greater than the variance estimate of environment and genotype-environment interaction, indicating that the genetic factor was the main source of variation. The heritability of stem rot resistance in Pop.1 population was 81%.

[0155] Using the phenotypic data of disease rating in single and multiple environments and BLUP values, QTLs for F. graminearum stem rot resistance were located. A QTL (qSr5-1) was detected on chromosome 5 bin5.05 (Table 9), with a physical position between 178,021,534 bp and 183,318,514 bp (B73 RefGen_V3), about 5.30 Mb. The QTL was co-located in 2020YL, 2020SY and BLUP values (Table 9), with LOD values between 3.87 and 7.48, and the explained phenotypic variation was 5.22% - 12.10%, and the resistance allele was derived from the resistant parent KA105.

[0158] 2. Validation and fine mapping of QTLs for corn stem rot resistance

[0159] Methods: QTL effect validation and fine mapping were performed by recombination offspring verification method. According to the results of QTL initial mapping, the remaining heterozygous lines with fixed other background genotypes in the target segment were screened in the RIL population, and KASP markers were developed to screen individuals with exchanges in the target segment. The key recombinant individuals were verified by the genotypes and stem rot phenotypes of their offspring to validate the effect and fine map the QTL. Each recombinant single plant was planted with 60-180 plants for genotype and stem rot disease rating identification, and the disease severity index (DSI) of each genotype was calculated. The difference in corn F. graminearum stem rot resistance between different genotypes was analyzed by one-tailed t test. If there was a significant difference (P < 0.05) between different genotypes, it indicated that the QTL was located in the heterozygous region, and vice versa.

[0160] DSI (%) = (disease rating x number of plants in the corresponding rating) x 100 / (maximum disease rating x total number of plants)

[0161] Results:

[0162] ​(1) In the F8 RIL family of Pop. 1, 1 heterozygous genotype was screened in the target resistance QTL candidate interval, and the remaining heterozygous line material 638RIL-31 with relatively fixed background genotype was obtained. After selfing, the seeds of the offspring of the segregation population were obtained. The developed molecular markers were used to screen individuals with exchanges in the target segment (Table 5). Key recombinant individuals were fine-mapped by offspring test method. Each recombinant individual was planted for 100-200 plants to identify the genotype and the stem rot resistance phenotype. The effect verification of the target QTL showed that the homozygous allele from the disease-resistant parent could significantly improve the field resistance of stem rot (P<0.001) Figure 2 A) Among them, the DSI of the KA105 / KA105 genotype plant with pure disease resistance was 24.55% in Yangling in 2021, and the DSI of the KB204 / KB204 genotype plant with pure disease resistance was 61.62%; the DSI of the KA105 genotype plant with pure disease resistance was 33.49% in Yangling in 2022, and the DSI of the KB204 genotype plant with pure disease resistance was 49.05%, and the t test result showed that there was a very significant difference in DSI between the two genotypes (P<0.001). In summary, the effect detection of the resistance QTL located by the remaining heterozygous line 638RIL-31 showed that the two-year test results reached a very significant difference, indicating that the genetic effect of the QTL really exists, and the target QTL site with pure disease resistance allele can stably reduce the DSI by 15.56%-37.07%, significantly improving the field resistance of corn to stem rot of Fusarium graminearum.

[0163] (2) In the candidate interval of the target QTL, molecular markers were added to design molecular marker primers with the corn B73 reference genome V3 version sequence as the reference. The molecular markers Ks7 and Ks8.1 at both ends of the candidate interval. Ks7 is located at position 178607304 of chromosome 5 of corn, which is named SNP1, and the nucleotides near the SNP site are shown in SEQ ID No. 7 of the sequence table, wherein the 200th base is the SNP site, that is, B73 RefGen_V3 https: / / www.maizegdb.org / genome / assembly / B73%20RefGen_v3) is A / G polymorphism. In SEQ ID No. 7, R is A or G, and the genotype of the SNP site has the following three types: AA, AG or GG. The GG is the homozygous type of the SNP site being G, the AA is the homozygous type of the SNP site being A, and the AG is the heterozygous type of the SNP site being A and G. The corn variety with the SNP site genotype of AA or AG has significantly higher resistance to stalk rot than the corn variety with the SNP site genotype of GG. Ks8.1, located at 182486805 of chromosome 5 of corn, is named SNP2, and the nucleotides of the SNP site and its vicinity are shown in SEQ ID No. 8 of the sequence table, wherein the 202nd base is the SNP site, i.e. B73 RefGen_V3 https: / / www.maizegdb.org / genome / assembly / B73%20RefGen_v3 ) is A / G polymorphism. In SEQ ID No. 7, R is A or G, and the genotype of the SNP site has the following three types: AA, AG or GG. The GG is the homozygous type of the SNP site being G, the AA is the homozygous type of the SNP site being A, and the AG is the heterozygous type of the SNP site being A and G. The corn variety with the SNP site genotype of AA or AG has significantly higher resistance to stalk rot than the corn variety with the SNP site genotype of GG. Ks8.1, located at 182486805 of chromosome 5 of corn, is named SNP2, and the nucleotides of the SNP site and its vicinity are shown in SEQ ID No. 8 of the sequence table, wherein the 202nd base is the SNP site, i.e. B73 RefGen_V3

[0164] (3) The progeny of the segregation population is divided into four recombination types by using the newly developed markers, and the fine mapping of the resistance QTL is carried out by the progeny test method. The results show that there is a significant difference in DSI between the plants carrying the homozygous KA105 genotype and the homozygous KB204 genotype in types I and IV (P<0.05) Figure 2 , and there is no significant difference in DSI between the plants carrying the homozygous genotype in types II and III (P>0.05). It is thus judged that the KA105 donor fragment of type IV carries the target QTL. According to whether each type carries the target QTL, it can be inferred that the site is located between the markers Ks7 and Ks8.1 in the type I and IV heterozygous interval, with a physical distance of about 3.87 Mb (corresponding to the B73 genome RefGen_V3 information). Among them, there is a significant difference in DSI between the plants carrying the homozygous resistant genotype and the homozygous susceptible genotype in type IV (P<0.05) Figure 2 . In summary, the resistance QTL is located between the molecular markers Ks7 and Ks8.1 with a physical distance of about 3.87 Mb, and the allele from the resistant parent can significantly improve the field resistance to stalk rot.
