Haplotype Analysis of <i>BADH1</i> by Next-Generation Sequencing Reveals Association with Salt Tolerance in Rice during Domestication

Betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (<i>BADH1)</i>, a paralog of the fragrance gene <i>BADH2</i>, is known to be associated with salt stress through the accumulation of synthesized glycine betaine (GB), which is involved in the response to abiotic stresses. Despite the unclear a...

description Betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (<i>BADH1)</i>, a paralog of the fragrance gene <i>BADH2</i>, is known to be associated with salt stress through the accumulation of synthesized glycine betaine (GB), which is involved in the response to abiotic stresses. Despite the unclear association between <i>BADH1</i> and salt stress, we observed the responses of eight phenotypic characteristics (germination percentage (GP), germination energy (GE), germination index (GI), mean germination time (MGT), germination rate (GR), shoot length (SL), root length (RL), and total dry weight (TDW)) to salt stress during the germination stage of 475 rice accessions to investigate their association with <i>BADH1</i> haplotypes. We found a total of 116 SNPs and 77 InDels in the whole <i>BADH1</i> gene region, representing 39 haplotypes. Twenty-nine haplotypes representing 27 mutated alleles (two InDels and 25 SNPs) were highly (<i>p</i> < 0.05) associated with salt stress, including the five SNPs that have been previously reported to be associated with salt tolerance. We observed three predominant haplotypes associated with salt tolerance, Hap_2, Hap_18, and Hap_23, which were Indica specific, indicating a comparatively high number of rice accessions among the associated haplotypes. Eight plant parameters (phenotypes) also showed clear responses to salt stress, and except for MGT (mean germination time), all were positively correlated with each other. Different signatures of domestication for <i>BADH1</i> were detected in cultivated rice by identifying the highest and lowest Tajima’s D values of two major cultivated ecotypes (Temperate Japonica and Indica). Our findings on these significant associations and <i>BADH1</i> evolution to plant traits can be useful for future research development related to its gene expression.
