摘要： Grain number, one of the major determinants of yield in Triticeae crops, is largely determined by spikelet number and spike rachis node number (SRN). Here, we identified three quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for SRN using 145 recombinant inbred lines derived from a barley R90/1815D cross. qSRN1, the major-effect QTL, was mapped to chromosome 2H and explained up to 38.77% of SRN variation. Map-based cloning revealed that qSRN1 encodes the RAWUL domain-containing protein HvSRN1. Further analysis revealed that two key SNPs in the HvSRN1 promoter region (similar to 2 kb upstream of the transcription start site) affect the transcript level of HvSRN1 and contribute to variation in SRN. Similar to its orthologous proteins OsLAX2 and ZmBA2, HvSRN1 showed protein-protein interactions with HvLAX1, suggesting that the LAX2-LAX1 model for spike morphology regulation may be conserved in Poaceae crops. CRISPR-Cas9-induced HvSRN1 mutants showed reduced SRN but increased grain size and weight, demonstrating a trade-off effect. Our results shed light on the role of HvSRN1 variation in regulating the balance between grain number and weight in barley.
