Description

Method for changing flowering period of rice by gene editing and application
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of crop gene editing breeding, and particularly relates to a method for changing the growth period of rice varieties by gene editing to influence the flowering of rice and application thereof.
Background
The crops such as rice and the like take a plurality of months from seed sowing to grain harvesting, after emergence of seedlings, nutrition growth and development are firstly carried out, environmental factors, especially the change of temperature and sunlight length are sensed, and then the crops are transferred into flowering, fruiting and maturation in a reproductive growth stage, and the length of the whole growth stage or the maturation stage is an extremely important agricultural production property. Some plants need long sunlight stimulation of a certain number of days to be changed from vegetative growth to reproductive growth, and flowers and fruits are long sunlight plants; while some plants need short-day stimulation for a certain number of days to bloom, which is a short-day plant. The rice is used as a short-day plant, is very sensitive to the sunlight length, the time for the complete maturation of different varieties is from about 120 days of early maturation to about 150 days of late maturation, the varieties with proper maturation periods must be selected in different ecological areas, the local sunlight heat accumulation cannot be fully utilized by the early maturation varieties to reduce the yield, the excessive late maturation varieties cannot be timely matured before frosting, and the absolute yield can be caused when serious. The northeast area of China, especially Heilongjiang province, longitudinally spans ten geographic latitudes, the ecological environment is extremely complex and various, and the temperature is divided into six temperature accumulating zones from higher than 2700 ℃,2500-2700 ℃,2300-2500 ℃,2100-2300 ℃ and 2100-1900 ℃ to lower than 1900 ℃ according to the number of annual temperature accumulating zones, wherein the first to fourth temperature accumulating zones are suitable for rice planting, but the special adaptation variety of each temperature accumulating zone must be planted.
The growth period is taken as one of the most important agronomic traits of rice, not only is important attention and application in breeding practice, but also genetic and molecular mechanisms of control of the rice are intensively studied. Flowering marks the transition of plants from nutrition to reproductive growth, directly determines the length of the growth period, is a complex quantitative trait controlled by a plurality of gene loci, and is regulated by illumination and temperature in the environment. About 70 or more flowering regulatory genes have been identified by studies on natural variation, mutant, transgene, etc. of rice, wherein Hd3a is the main flowering gene, and the expression of two developmental genes MADS14 and MADS15 is directly controlled to induce flowering. Under short-day conditions, hd3a is positively regulated by Hd1 and Ehd1, while Hd1 experiences spectra and photoperiod through Phys and GI, and Ehd1 is positively or negatively regulated by multiple genes. Under long-day conditions, hd3a and another flowering gene RFT1 are positively regulated by Ehd1 and negatively regulated by Hd1, hd1 also senses photoperiod through GI, ehd1 is directly or indirectly positively or negatively regulated by a plurality of genes, and in addition, a few other genes can also directly influence the expression of Hd3 a. Wherein Ghd7 and DTH8 inhibit flowering by negatively regulating Ehd1, and DTH7 (PRR 37) inhibits flowering by directly negatively regulating Hd3a (Brambilla and Fornara, 2013, J Integrative Plant Biol 55: 410-418;Hori et al., 2016,TheorAppl Genet 29: 2241-2252).
The summer suitable for plant growth in high latitude areas is short, but the sunshine time per day is long, the temperature is quickly reduced after the change into short sunshine, and the requirements of late-maturing varieties on short sunshine days and accumulated temperature are difficult to meet. However, through long-term ecological adaptive breeding, early maturing rice varieties adapting to different heat accumulating zones are bred, and genomic sequencing analysis discovers that the varieties often contain haplotypes of the main flowering regulation gene mutation, and the mutation is disclosed as a genetic gene basis for leading the rice to be early matured, wherein the haplotypes of different genetic mutations have a superposition effect, namely, the earlier maturing varieties have more mutations. Theoretically, if the expression level of the main flowering regulatory genes is regulated by accurate mutation, it is possible to improve the good late maturing varieties without the early maturing haplotype into early maturing varieties, keep other original good characters to the maximum extent, and rapidly select and breed the early maturing varieties suitable for a wider heat accumulating zone (Zhang et al, 2015,New Phytologist 208:1056-1066; ye et al, 2018,Front Plant Sci 9:35).
The gene editing technology utilizes Cas9 endonuclease of the acquired immune system CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspersed Short Palindromic Repeats) of streptococcus pyogenes Streptococcus pyogenes to form a ribozyme complex with guide gRNA, precisely recognizes a target site through base pairing between an RNA sequence with the length of 20 bp in the gRNA and an edited DNA sequence, selectively cuts off specific genes in cells, and realizes gene editing through two inherent DNA repair processes of the cells. The Non-homologous end-linked Non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) has high repair efficiency, does not need a template, and can introduce insertion or deletion mutation in the cutting point linking process, so that the gene is inactivated, the final product after the editing offspring are subjected to genetic separation does not contain any exogenous DNA, and the Non-transgenic product can avoid the supervision and approval process and cost of complex and expensive transgenic products and is suitable for rapid production and application. The homology dependent repair Homologydependent repair (HDR) pathway requires the provision of a pre-designed DNA fragment as a template that can be site-directed inserted into a preselected site to modify the target gene, although the repair is precise, but is inefficient (Jinek et al, 2012, science 337:816-821).
The gene editing technology has been rapidly developed in recent years, and the multiple gRNA synchronous expression technology can simultaneously edit multiple loci of multiple genes in a high-efficiency NHEJ pathway (Hsieh-FENG AND YANG 2020, aBIOTECH 1: 123-134); single base editing techniques include cytosine editors (Cytosine base editor, CBE) and adeno glance sideways at-in editors (Adenine base editor, ABE) that can implement specific editing (Komor et al., 2016, Nature 533: 420–424; Nishida et al., 2016, Science 353: aaf8729;Gaudelli et al., 2017, Nature 551: 464–471); mutation SpCas9 of a single base through irreversible C-T or a-G conversion, respectively, to recognize NGH (h=a, C, T) outside NGG, pan-site editing (Hu et al., 2018, Nature 556: 57–63; Kleinstiveret al., 2015, Nature 523: 481–485; Nishimasu et al., 2018, Science 361: 1259–1262; Walton etal., 2020, Science 368:290–296); novel gene editing tool enzymes of PAM sequences such as NGN, etc., such as Cas12a (Cpf 1), etc., having more diverse recognition sites and editing functional characteristics (Zetsche et al., 2015, cell 163:1-13; murovec et al., 2017, plant Biotechnol J15:917-926); the guided editing technique (PRIME EDITING) has made breakthrough progress in precise gene editing, and can realize various types of precise gene editing including base conversion, substitution, deletion of small fragments, insertion, substitution, and the like (Anzalone et al., 2019, nature 576:149-157). Various gene editing techniques are widely applied in the field of plant research, and realize knockout editing of various plants and numerous genes and few precise design editing (Li et al., 2015Plant Physiol 169: 960–970; Ma et al., 2016, Mol Plant 9: 961–974; Chen etal., 2019, Annu Rev Plant Biol 70: 667–97; Mao et al., 2019, Natl Sci Rev 6: 421-437).
The more the well-known Rice variety in japan starts to be planted in 1953, becomes a new main-pushed variety in the county of new lager and is formally named as the more light (Koshihikari), by virtue of its excellent quality, the most widely planted Rice variety in japan is still planted in 2016 even after being planted for more than 50 years, and the planting area in 2016 occupies 36.2% of the planting area in japan (Kobayashi et al, 2018, rice 11:15), which is worth being introduced as a breeding resource material of excellent quality for improving the properties such as the quality of northeast Rice in China. However, the growth period of the sunlight is longer, and even in the first heat accumulating zone with the highest heat accumulating temperature in the Heilongjiang, the sunlight can not normally bloom and fruit, so that the breeding application of the sunlight is severely restricted. The invention aims at the light-crossing base material, aims at 4 rice growth period control genes DTH7 (LOC_Os07 g49460, also called Hd 2), DTH8 (LOC_Os08 g07740, also called Hd 5), ghd7 (LOC_Os07 g15770, also called Hd 4) and Hd1 (LOC_Os06 g 16370) which inhibit flowering under long-day conditions, utilizes the gene editing technology to carry out various combination editing on different sites of different genes so as to obtain an improved strain with shortened growth period, obtains unexpected effects, and invents a method for effectively shortening the rice growth period on the premise of not affecting other favorable traits.

The specific operation flow is as follows:
1. Induction of rice callus: about 200 mature, full and healthy rice seeds are picked for each transformation experiment, glumes are stripped, the rice seeds are placed in a 100ml sterile glass bottle and washed 3 times by 75% ethanol, equal volumes of sterile water and 10% sodium hypochlorite NaClO are added, two drops of Tween 20 are added, shaking sterilization treatment is carried out for 20 minutes, and the rice seeds are washed 3 to 5 times by the sterile water until foams are washed off. The surface moisture of the seeds is sucked by sterile filter paper, horizontally placed on an induction culture medium, and dark-cultured in a constant temperature incubator at 33 ℃ for 3-4 weeks until the calli grow out from the embryos.
2. Subculture of rice callus: healthy callus with vigorous stripping growth is selected, placed on a new induction culture medium for subculture for 1-2 weeks, and propagated and the vigor of the callus is maintained.
3. Infection of callus: the agrobacterium glycerol storage tube carrying the target gene vector is taken out from a low-temperature refrigerator at the temperature of minus 80 ℃, a small amount of agrobacterium is streaked and inoculated on a solid YEP culture medium flat plate containing 50 mg/L kanamycin, and the agrobacterium is cultivated in the dark at the temperature of 28 ℃ for 2 to 3 days. And (3) picking single colony, inoculating 5ml of YEP liquid culture medium, culturing overnight at 28 ℃ in a dark way, and taking a small amount of bacterial liquid to extract plasmid DNA for carrier-specific PCR detection to confirm that the strain carries a target gene carrier. Meanwhile, part of bacterial liquid is coated with YEP culture medium for plate culture observation (the residual culture medium can be temporarily stored at-80 ℃ C. For later direct use). The agrobacterium used for infection must be free of contamination by bacteria, and the whole plate is required to be smooth and free of production of particles or other colors of fungi or mold and other bacteria to ensure the purity of the obtained agrobacterium and to ensure no contamination in subsequent work by strict aseptic manipulation.
After the agrobacteria flat plate is determined to be pollution-free, directly scraping the thalli into a 100ml triangular flask containing 25 ml of suspension infection culture medium, culturing for 2-3 hours on a 100-120 rpm rotary shaking table with the constant temperature of 25 ℃, sampling and measuring an OD 600 value, and using the suspension infection culture medium to adjust the OD 600 value of the agrobacteria to be 0.1-0.2 for callus infection. Selecting small granular healthy callus, placing the small granular healthy callus in a 250 ml sterile glass bottle, adding agrobacterium for hand-shake infection for 3-5 minutes, then sucking the bacterial liquid on the surface of the callus by using sterile filter paper, placing the bacterial liquid on the filter paper on the surface of a co-culture medium, placing a piece of sterile filter paper on the co-culture medium in advance to prevent the agrobacterium from growing, and performing co-culture in the dark at 28 ℃ for 3 days.
4. Screening and identification of resistant calli: after 3 days of co-cultivation, the rice calli were transferred to sterile 250 ml glass flasks and washed several times with sterile water until the water was clear and transparent, and finally washed with a final concentration of about 250 mg/l carbenicillin on a 100 rpm shaker for 0.5 hours. Transferring the callus to a culture dish, sucking the surface moisture of the callus with sterile filter paper, placing the callus in a sterile operation super clean workbench for air drying for 2.5 hours, sub-packaging the callus on a screening culture medium, and culturing in a constant temperature incubator at 33 ℃ for 3-4 weeks in a dark way.
The screening medium contains 400 mg/L of carbenicillin to inhibit the growth of agrobacterium, 50 mg/L of hygromycin is used for screening transformed cells, non-transformed cells stop growing and gradually die on the screening medium, and after 3-4 weeks of culture, the successfully transformed cells can grow resistant callus. After the growth of the resistant callus, sampling the callus in proper amount, extracting genome DNA, and carrying out PCR identification by using a primer specific to a transformation vector, wherein each PCR positive callus is an independent transformation event. If necessary, the edited DNA fragment can be amplified by PCR with primers specific to the target gene, and then sequenced directly or after cloning to analyze the effect of gene editing.
5. Callus differentiation into shoots: the positive and growing resistant calli identified by PCR are transferred into a culture flask containing a differentiation medium, kept under 16 hours of illumination every day, and after 2-3 weeks of culture at 28 ℃, green spots are visible to differentiate, and after about 2 weeks, part of green spots can differentiate into seedlings and grow and elongate.
6. Rooting culture: transplanting the differentiated seedlings with the height of about 2-5 cm and normal morphology into a culture flask containing rooting culture medium, illuminating for 16 hours per day, culturing for 1-2 weeks at 28 ℃ to strengthen the seedlings, and differentiating healthy root systems.
7. Domestication and transplanting of the resistant regenerated plants: when the root system of the seedling grows to be about 3-4 cm and is stronger, opening a sealing film of a culture bottle, adding a small amount of distilled water, hardening the seedling for 24 hours, carefully clamping the plant out by using forceps to avoid damaging stems and roots, flushing a culture medium attached to the root by using clear water, transplanting the plant into a seedling tray containing vermiculite nutrient soil, covering the seedling tray to keep humidity, culturing in a 28 ℃/24 ℃ artificial climate chamber or a greenhouse under 16/8 hours of illumination until new leaves grow out, transplanting the seedling into a larger flowerpot for soaking water culture, and applying a proper amount of fertilizer until flowers and fruits are obtained. During this period, leaves of these T0 plants were sampled, and DNA was extracted for transgene identification and gene editing analysis.
3. Gene edit identification of transformation events
The resistant regenerated plants must be detected by molecular biology to confirm whether genetic transformation is successful, and a common simple and reliable detection method is PCR amplification. Sampling a small amount of callus or tender leaf tissue of regenerated plant with resistance transformation event, extracting genome DNA for PCR amplification, designing carrier-specific DNA primer according to the transformation carrier DNA sequence, obtaining the plant with specific amplified fragment as transformation positive, and further detecting the editing effect of target gene. According to the target gene DNA sequence and the expected Cas9 cleavage point position, PCR primers with the length of about 300 bp parts are designed to cover the upper and downstream of the cleavage site, target gene fragments with the length of about 400-800bp are amplified, and the same upstream or downstream primers are directly used for sequencing after purification. If the DNA fragment sequence of the regenerated plant is not different from the wild type sequence, no gene editing is carried out; if the detected DNA sequence shows a sleeve peak near the expected Cas9 cleavage site, the sequenced PCR fragment is a mixed template, and the regenerated plant is heterozygous edited; if the regenerated plant DNA fragment has a definite sequence difference with the wild type, the homozygous gene is edited. The PCR fragment of the target gene of the heterozygous editing plant can be cloned by using a PCR fragment cloning kit, at least 3 cloning vectors are selected for specific primer sequencing, and the specific editing change of the target gene sequence is confirmed.
The analysis and comparison of DNA sequences involved in the molecular biology experiments in the invention, the cloning construction design of DNA vectors, the design of PCR primers and CRISPR GRNA, and the like are all completed by using DNA analysis software Geneious Prime (Biomatters Ltd.).
Sampling rice resistant callus, or regenerated T0 plant leaves, extracting genome DNA by a SDS (Sodium dodecyl sulphate) -based DNA rapid extraction method, performing Cas9 gene-specific PCR detection, and identifying transformation event. The PCR reaction system adopts Quick Taq HS DyeMix (DTM-101) kit (TOYOBOLife Science), the 20 microliter PCR reaction system comprises 10 microliter 2x Quick Taq HS DyeMix, 1.0 microliter 10 pmol/microliter primer Cas9-F1 (SEQ ID NO: 10) and 1.0 microliter 10 pmol/microliter primer Cas9-R1 (SEQ ID NO: 11), 6.0 microliter sterile water, and finally 2.0 microliter 50 ng/microliter of genomic DNA of the sample is added. The PCR reaction conditions were 95℃for 5 minutes, then 95℃for 30 seconds, 60℃for 1 minute, 72℃for 1 minute for 30 cycles, and finally 72℃for 7 minutes and maintained at 4 ℃. The PCR amplification product was separated by 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, and samples successfully amplified the 540 bp long fragment specific for the Cas9 gene (SEQ ID NO: 12) were judged to be transgene positive. Similar PCR analysis can also be performed by using primers Hyg-F1 and Hyg-R1 (SEQ ID NO:13, 14) specific to the vector hygromycin gene, and samples successfully amplified with the HygR gene-specific 402 bp long fragment (SEQ ID NO: 15) are judged to be transgenic positive.
A target fragment (SEQ ID NO: 18) of 1329 bp length near the editing site of the OsDTH7-G1 gene can be amplified from a Cas9 positive sample by a similar PCR amplification method using OsDTH7 (LOC-Os 07G 49460) specific primers OsDh7-F2 and OsDh-R2 (SEQ ID NO:16, 17). Using OsDTH gene (LOC-Os 08G 07740) specific primers OsDh8-F1 and OsDh-R1 (SEQ ID NO:19, 20), a target fragment (SEQ ID NO: 21) of 1329 bp length near the OsDTH-G1 gene editing site can be amplified. Using OsGhd gene (LOC_Os 07G 15770) specific primers OsG7-F4 and OsG7-R4 (SEQ ID NO:22, 23), a target fragment (SEQ ID NO: 24) of OsGhd7-G3 or its complementary strand OsGhd7-G3R, which is 826 bp long near the gene editing site, can be amplified. Using OsHd gene (LOC_Os 06G 16370) specific primers OsHd1-F3 and OsHd1-R3 (SEQ ID NO:25, 26), a target fragment 801. 801 bp long near the OsHd-G1 gene editing site (SEQ ID NO: 27) can be amplified. These PCR fragments were directly sequenced in one direction using the above PCR primers, respectively, and if a set of peaks exists near the expected gene editing site, even the downstream DNA could not be sequenced accurately, i.e., it was judged that DNA sequence editing occurred at that site. The PCR fragment TOPO of the edited sample is cloned into pCR2.1 vector (Thermo FISHER SCIENTIFIC), and 3 clones are sent to sequence each sample, so that specific DNA editing sequence changes can be accurately analyzed.
The transformation efficiency of each gene editing vector on the beyond-light rice is not high, the identification is the actual transformation event by carrying out the PCR analysis on the callus samples of the resistance event obtained by screening, the gene editing efficiency reaches 100% by confirming that the events are all subjected to gene editing by the sequencing analysis of the target gene fragments, and the analysis results are summarized in Table 2.

4. Screening of offspring plants from Gene editing events
Transplanting the T0 plant for realizing gene editing into a greenhouse for culture, naturally selfing, setting maturing, harvesting the T1 generation seeds, and sowing in the greenhouse at proper time. When seedlings were about three leaves in size, a small amount of leaf samples were taken to extract genomic DNA, and detailed PCR detection and target gene sequencing analysis were performed (FIG. 3). Because rice selfing follows Mendelian genetic segregation, the genome-inserted gene editing vector fragment and the edited target gene are not generally on the same chromosome, and are separated from each other independently, part of T1 plants no longer contain any editing vector DNA and are non-transgenic offspring, wherein the target genes of part of the plants keep an editing state, and about 16T 1 plants possibly have one plant which does not carry the gene editing vector fragment and is subjected to homozygous editing. If stable non-transgenic homozygous editing plants can be obtained in the T1 generation, the analysis and identification experiment can be expanded after the T2 generation seeds are harvested. If the non-transgenic homozygous edited plant is not obtained, the T2 generation seeds of the heterozygous edited plant are planted in a greenhouse, natural genetic separation is carried out, and the non-transgenic homozygous edited T2 generation plant is selected through similar analysis.
The isolated T1 progeny plants were first PCR amplified using the same Cas9 and HygR gene specific primers described above, and checked for whether the plants still carried the gene editing vector fragment, and non-transgenic progeny plants that could not be amplified were selected (fig. 3). Then, a target fragment of the gene edit region 1329 bp length was amplified using the same OsDTH7 gene-specific primers OsDh7-F2 and OsDh7-R2 as described above (FIG. 3), and the result was directly subjected to one-way sequencing analysis using the OsDh7-F2 primer, and compared with the wild-type sequence of the OsDTH7 gene (SEQ ID NO: 18), thereby confirming the OsDTH7 gene edit condition. A target fragment 1329 bp long in the gene editing region was amplified using the same OsDTH gene-specific primers OsDh8-F1 and OsDh-R1 as described above (FIG. 3), and the result was directly subjected to one-way sequencing analysis using the OsDh8-F1 primer, and compared with the wild type sequence of the OsDTH gene (SEQ ID NO: 21), thereby confirming the condition of OsDTH gene editing. A target fragment having a length of 826 bp in the gene editing region was amplified using the same OsGhd gene-specific primers OsG7-F4 and OsG7-R4 as described above (FIG. 3), and the result was directly subjected to one-way sequencing analysis using the OsG-F4 primer, and the result was aligned with the wild type sequence of OsGhd gene (SEQ ID NO: 24), whereby the condition of OsDTH8 gene editing was confirmed. A target fragment of gene editing region 801 bp was amplified using the same OsHd1 gene-specific primers OsHd1 to F3 and OsHd1 to R3 as described above (FIG. 3), and was analyzed by direct unidirectional sequencing using OsHd1 to F3 primers, and the result was aligned with the wild type sequence of OsHd1 gene (SEQ ID NO: 27), thereby confirming the condition of gene editing of OsHd.
Combining the PCR amplification and target gene editing region DNA fragment sequencing analysis results, co-screening to obtain 4 independent families R55-1-2-9, R55-1-4-10, R55-1-5-5, R55-1-6-17 of non-transgenic homozygous editing R55 plants, wherein the genes of OsGhd7 and OsHd are edited (SEQ ID NO:28-31 and SEQ ID NO: 32-35), and the difference sequence only occurs at the expected editing sites (FIG. 4 a); 6 independent families of non-transgenic, homozygous edited R66 plants were obtained, osGhd genes were edited (SEQ ID NOS: 36-41), the differential sequence only occurred at the expected editing sites (FIG. 4 b), 5 independent families of non-transgenic, homozygous edited R81 and R89 plants were obtained, osDTH and OsDTH genes were all edited (SEQ ID NOS: 42-46 and SEQ ID NOS: 47-51), and the differential sequence only occurred at the expected editing sites (FIG. 5). The target site editing profiles of the individual gene editing families are summarized in Table 3, where the R66 gene editing family OsGhd-G3R sites show the complementary strand sequences. Because the DNA sequence editing only occurs in the protein coding region where the expected editing site is located, namely, CRISPR-Cas9 mediated specific gene editing is performed, the frame shift mutation of each target gene is caused, the normal expression of each protein functional domain sequence is particularly blocked, and the functions of each gene in the edited rice family are effectively knocked out.

5. Phenotypic analysis of offspring plants from gene editing events
The Heilongjiang province vertically spans ten geographic latitudes (about 43.5-53.5 degrees in North latitude), the ecological environment is extremely complex and various, and the annual heat accumulation number is divided into six heat accumulation zones or ecological areas from higher than 2700 ℃,2500-2700 ℃,2300-2500 ℃,2100-2300 ℃ and 2100-1900 ℃ to lower than 1900 ℃, each area is reduced by about 200 ℃ compared with the last heat accumulation zone, and the maturation period is correspondingly reduced by about 7 days. The rice experimental base of the reclamation and seed-enlarging industry is arranged in the Archimedes area of Harbin, is positioned at the north of 45 degrees north latitude and belongs to the first heat accumulation zone. The non-transgenic homozygous editing material is planted and observed in a special land block in an isolated mode, each material is planted in a single row or in a partition mode, the plant spacing is 10 cm, each row is about 45 plants, meanwhile, wild type parents are planted in the same area as a control, and comprehensive field performance and growth period change are observed. The rice variety generally suitable for being planted in the Archimedes is in heading and flowering in the last ten days of 7 months to 8 months, the date that about 10% of the rice head ends of the plants in the whole area or row of each material are exposed out of leaf sheaths is the heading period of the family, the date that about 50% of the rice head ends in the whole area or row are exposed out of leaf sheaths is the heading period, and the date that about 80% of the rice head ends in the whole area or row are exposed out of leaf sheaths is the heading period. And calculating and recording the days required by heading and flowering according to the planting date and the heading period of each material, and comparing with a control to judge whether the growth period is effectively shortened.
And planting R55 non-transgene, homozygous edited T2 separation offspring in a special isolated plot of a rice experimental base in an Alcity area of Harbin in 2021, and planting R66, R81 and R89 non-transgene, homozygous edited T2 separation offspring in 2022. Each family is transplanted with 5 meters long single row, the plant spacing is 10 cm, 45 plants are all planted, the wild type is used as a control, comprehensive field performance and growth period change are observed, each gene editing family grows and develops normally, the successive heading is started in the next ten days of 7 months, the date that the leaf sheath is exposed at the top end of the rice head of about 10% of the plants in the whole row is recorded as the heading period of the family, the day of heading and flowering of each material is calculated according to the planting date and heading period of each material, and each editing material needs about 100 days from planting to heading (see table 4). The main cultivation area of the light is located in the middle and south of Japan of about 33-38 degrees of North latitude, the growth period is long, the wild type planted on 18 days of 4 months is light as a contrast, the heading is not started until 10 days of 9 months, 145 days are required from the planting to heading, and enough time is not needed to finish the fruiting before the frost is formed on the beginning of 10 months.
Since each editing family can heading and bloom in the next ten days of 7 months, the required time is shortened by up to about 45 days compared with the comparative wild type, the editing effect is extremely remarkable, and all four growth period control genes of DTH7, DTH8, ghd7 and Hd1 do not need to be knocked out simultaneously, and only one Ghd7 gene or two genes of DTH7 and DTH8 need to be knocked out to achieve similar effect (see Table 4), unexpected, and adverse side effects caused by excessive gene knockouts can be avoided as much as possible.
Each editing family effectively shortens the growth period, and can be fully planted in the first or even the second heat accumulating zone of Heilongjiang and matured and firm. But the phenotype difference of each editing combination is obvious while the growth period is obviously shortened, and some materials such as R55 family plants editing Ghd7 and Hd1 genes are uneven in heading, small in inflorescence, firm and sparse and extremely easy to lodge; r66 family plants only editing Ghd7 genes have small inflorescences, are firm and sparse, and seriously influence the yield; whereas R81 and R89 family plants editing the DTH7 and DTH8 genes grew normally, no significant phenotypic defect was observed for the current best editing combination, and could be harvested at 10 months of pre-frost maturity (FIG. 6).
