説明

Genetic studies using mutant resources have significantly contributed to elucidating plant gene function. Massive mutant libraries sequenced by next-generation sequencing technology facilitate mutant identification and functional analysis of genes of interest. Here, we report the creation and release of an open-access database (https://miriq.agr.kyushu-u.ac.jp/index.php), called Mutation-induced Rice in Kyushu University (MiRiQ), designed for in silico mutant screening based on a whole-genome-sequenced mutant library. This database allows any user to easily find mutants of interest without laborious efforts such as large-scale screening by PCR. The initial version of the MiRiQ database (version 1.0) harbors a total of 1.6 million single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) and InDels of 721 M1 plants that were mutagenized by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea treatment of the rice cultivar Nipponbare (Oryza sativa ssp. japonica). The SNVs were distributed among 87% of all 35,630 annotated protein-coding genes of the Nipponbare genome and were predicted to induce missense and nonsense mutations. The MiRiQ database provides built-in tools, such as a search tool by keywords and JBrowse for mutation searches. Users can request mutant seeds in the M2 or M3 generations from a request form linked to this database. We believe that the availability of a wide range of gene mutations in this database will benefit the plant science community and breeders worldwide by accelerating functional genomic research and crop improvement.
