- Abstract poster
Rice (Oryza sativa L.), one of the most important crops in the world, is the staple food for
over half the worlds population. Among European countries, Italy is the largest rice producer and
exporter, with cultivated areas extending over 228,000 ha and production of 1,430,000 tons during
2006.
Even if rice growth on the most productive irrigated lands in the world has reached almost the
maximum potential production, the achievement of the optimum yield is made difficult by
environmental stresses, such as water deficiency, soil salinity and pathogens attack. The
development of new rice varieties with a higher tolerance/resistance to both abiotic and biotic
stresses is of great interest also in our country, for the adaptation of rice to suboptimal climate and
soil conditions.
Metabolomics is considered an emerging tool for metabolic pattern studies and, together with
transcriptomics and proteomics, for gene function identification, under normal and stress
conditions. One strategy to identify more suitable varieties might be to compare the metabolic
profile of different cultivars and verify a possible correlation between the accumulation of specific
metabolites and the level of stress tolerance/sensitivity.
In this work, we have first investigated the metabolic profile in shoots and roots of two rice
cultivars (Arborio and Nipponbare) through solid state 1H HR MAS and liquid state NMR
experiments. Drought and salt stress experiments on shoots and roots growth showed a higher
sensitivity of Arborio seedlings than those of Nipponbare to these abiotic stresses. Moreover, the
metabolic content of the same samples was analysed by liquid state NMR coupled with multivariate
statistical analysis. Principal Component Analysis highlighted a significant accumulation of amino
acids and sugars in shoots and roots under stress conditions and the existence of clear differences
between the two analyzed rice cultivars. In particular, Arborio seedlings accumulated a higher
concentration of amino acids and sugars than Nipponbare ones. Furthermore, we also obtained
preliminary data about rice metabolic changes following infection with the fungus Magnaporthe grisea. (literal)
