abstract = {Rising tropospheric ozone concentrations in Asia affect the
yield and quality of rice. This study investigated
ozone-induced changes in rice grain quality in contrasting
rice genotypes, and explored the associated physiological
processes during the reproductive growth phase. The ozone
sensitive variety Nipponbare and a breeding line (L81)
containing two tolerance QTLs in Nipponbare background were
exposed to 100 ppb ozone (8 h per day) or control conditions
throughout their growth. Ozone affected grain chalkiness and
protein concentration and composition. The percentage of
chalky grains was significantly increased in Nipponbare but
not in L81. Physiological measurements suggested that grain
chalkiness was associated with a drop in foliar carbohydrate
and nitrogen levels during grain filling, which was less
pronounced in the tolerant L81. Grain total protein
concentration was significantly increased in the ozone
treatment, although the albumin fraction (water soluble
protein) decreased. The increase in proteinwas more
pronounced in L81, due to increases in the glutelin fraction
in this genotype. Amino acids responded differently to the
ozone treatment. Three essential amino acids (leucine,
methionine and threonine) showed significant increases,
while seven showed significant treatment by genotype
interactions, mostly due to more positive responses in L81.
The trend of increased grain protein was in contrast to
foliar nitrogen levels, which were negatively affected by
ozone. A negative correlation between grain protein and
foliar nitrogen in ozone stress indicated that higher grain
protein cannot be explained by a concentration effect in all
tissues due to lower biomass production. Rather, ozone
exposure affected the nitrogen distribution, as indicated by
altered foliar activity of the enzymes involved in nitrogen
metabolism, such as glutamine synthetase and
glutamine-2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase. Our results
demonstrate differential responses of grain quality to ozone
due to the presence of tolerance QTL, and partly explain the
underlying physiological processes.},
