Key messageqFC6, a major quantitative trait locus for rice crude fat content, was fine mapped to be identical withWx.FC6negatively regulates crude fat content and rice quality.AbstractStarch, protein and lipids are the three major components in rice endosperm. The lipids content in rice influences both storage and quality. In this study, we identified a quantitative trait locus (QTL),qFC6, for crude fat (free lipids) content through association analysis and linkage analysis. Gene-based association analysis revealed thatLOC_Os06g04200, also known asWx, was the candidate gene forqFC6. Complementation and knockout transgenic lines revealed thatWxnegatively regulates crude fat content. Lipid composition and content analysis by gas chromatography and taste evaluation analysis showed thatFC6positively influenced bound lipids content and negatively affected both free lipids content and taste. Besides, higher free lipids content rice varieties exhibit more lustrous appearance after cooking and by adding extra oil during cooking could improve rice luster and taste score, indicating that higher free lipids content may make rice more lustrous and delicious. Together, we cloned a QTL coordinating rice crude fat content and eating quality and assisted in uncovering the genetic basis of rice lipid content and in the improvement of rice eating quality.
