Abstract
The present invention relates to rice grain with thickened aleurone. Also provided is a rice plant comprising at least one genetic variation which reduces the activity of at least one ROS1a gene in the plant. Grain of the invention, or aleurone therefrom, has improved nutritional properties, and hence is particularly useful for human and animal feed products.
Claims (41)
1. Grain of a rice plant, the grain comprising an aleurone, a y endosperm, a ROS1a gene encoding a ROS1a polypeptide, wherein the amino acid sequence of the ROS1a polypetide is at least 95% identical to SEQ ID NO: 2, wherein the ROS1a gene comprisesone or more genetic variations when compared to a corresponding wild-type rice plant, whereby the aleurone is thickened ed to ne from a corresponding wild-type grain, and wherein the one or more genetic variations(s) comprise an introduced c modification in the ROS1a gene.
2. The grain of claim 1, which is further terised by one or more or all of: (a) the ROS1a polypeptide has DNA glycosylase activity; (b) the ROS1a polypeptide is a variant of a corresponding wild-type ROS1a polypeptide in that their amino acid sequences are different; (c) the ROS1a polypeptide has a level of DNA ylase activity which is between 2% and about 60% of the level of DNA glycosylase ty of a corresponding wild-type ROS1a polypeptide and/or of ROS1a polypeptide whose amino acids have a sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2; (d) a level of ROS1a polypeptide between 2% and about 60% is present in the grain compared to the level of ROS1a polypeptide in the corresponding wild-type grain; and (e) the aleurone is thickened compared to aleurone from a corresponding ype grain and comprises at least two, at least three, at least four or at least five layers of cells, about 3, about 4, about 5 or about 6 layers of cells, or 2-8, 2-7, 2-6 or 2-5 layers of cells.
3. The grain of claim 1 or claim 2, wherein the ROS1a gene produces a reduced level of a wild-type ROS1a polypeptide, for example which comprises a splice-site mutation that s in a reduced level of expression of the ROS1a gene, relative to the wild-type ROS1a gene whose cDNA sequence is provided as SEQ ID NO:8, or wherein the ROS1a gene comprises a mutation in its promoter which results in reduced expression of the ROS1a gene relative to the wild-type ROS1a gene.
4. The grain according to any one of claims 1 to 3, n the rice plant is characterised by one or more or all of: (a) the rice plant has a level of DNA glycosylase activity in its developing grain which is between 2% and about 60% of the level of DNA glycosylase activity in a corresponding wildtype developing grain; (b) the activity of at least one ROS1a gene in the rice plant is reduced in one or more or all of aleurone, rp, nucellar projection, ovary, testa and starchy endosperm of the developing grain; (c) the ty of a ROS1a gene is reduced at least at a time point between the time of anthesis and 7 days post-anthesis, and/or in the egg cell prior to anthesis; (d) the rice plant is male and female fertile; and (e) the rice plant exhibits delayed grain maturation.
5. The grain according to any one or more of claims 1 to 4, which is further characterised by one or more of: (a) the grain comprises, when compared to a corresponding ype grain, one or more or all of the following, each on a weight basis, i) a higher mineral content, preferably the mineral content is the t of one or more or all of zinc, iron potassium, magnesium, phosphorus and sulphur, ii) a higher antioxidant content, iii) a higher phytate content, iv) a higher content of one or more or all of vitamins B3, B6 and B9, v) a higher dietary fibre content and/or insoluble fibre content, vi) a starch content which is between about 90% and about 100% by weight relative to the starch content of the corresponding wild-type grain; vii) a higher sucrose content, viii) a higher monosaccharide content, and ix) a lipid content of at least 90% or at least 100% relative to the lipid content of the corresponding wild-type grain, (b) the grain comprises an ; (c) the grain is whole grain or cracked grain; (d) the grain has been processed so that it is no longer able to germinate, preferably by heat treatment; (e) the grain has a germination rate which is between about 70 and about 100% relative to the germination rate of a corresponding wild-type grain; (f) the grain comprises an increased proportion of amylose in its total starch content ed to the corresponding wild-type grain; and (g) the grain comprises an increased proportion of oleic acid and/or a decreased proportion of palmitic acid in its total fatty acid content compared to the ponding wild-type grain.
