| 内容記述 | For several years, excessive chemical nitrogen fertilizers have been applied to the Asia-Monsoon region. Consequently, environmental challenges, such as groundwater pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, which sometimes lead to pest and disease proliferation, have emerged, making a shift toward sustainable rice cultivation imperative. One key technological challenge in achieving this is enhancing the nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). This report introduces technological developments that aim to achieve high yields with minimal fertilizer application, presents preliminary demonstration findings, and discusses future prospects. Fertilizer management and breeding are two major methods for enhancing NUE in rice cultivation. The latter can have substantial potential for social acceptance and widespread adoption if the development of varieties considers regionally specific environmental conditions. For instance, dry matter accumulation tends to stagnate during the heading stage in environments such as the Asia-Monsoon region, which is characterized by high temperature, high humidity, and frequent overcast conditions. Consequently, assimilation via photosynthesis during the reproductive stage plays a critical role in the yield. Therefore, developing varieties that maintain dry matter production during the reproductive stage is an effective strategy for enhancing NUE. While early heading has traditionally been considered detrimental to yield potential in breeding programs, recent breeding strategies have actively used early heading to avoid weather stresses such as high temperatures and drought during the reproductive stage. Furthermore, a shorter cultivation period resulting from early heading can decrease methane emissions and conserve irrigation water. Based on the hypothesis that efficient photosynthesis to maintain dry matter production during the reproductive stage results in enhanced NUE, we developed lines introducing early heading genes as part of the JIRCAS project (FY2016–FY2021). We developed NR160E, using the high-yielding Philippine variety NSIC Rc 160 as a background, by introducing an early heading QTL. Field trials in Japan indicated that NR160E maintained yield even at half the fertilizer application rate. Enhanced physiological NUE (PNUE) can be achieved by promoting photosynthesis during the reproductive stage and improving dry matter accumulation and yield components. However, the effect of the early heading gene in NR160E may be limited in low-latitude regions. Thus, using high-yielding varieties suited to each region's cultivation conditions as a genetic background is crucial when disseminating early heading technology in the Asia-Monsoon regions. In response to these difficulties, JIRCAS developed EHD10 and EHD16, which introduced various genes that produce early heading in low-latitude regions into the major variety Ciherang in Indonesia. Furthermore, preliminary verification tests in farmers' fields was conducted as part of the Green Asia Project. Under the recommended fertilization conditions, both lines showed yields 22%–25% higher than that of Ciherang and decreased nitrogen use by approximately 20%. Additionally, the yields of EHD10 and EHD16 were maintained even under no-fertilization conditions, overcoming the conventional problem of reduced yields owing to early heading. These preliminary findings indicate the potential for improved NUE by developing early heading varieties tailored to regional environmental conditions. Nevertheless, further evidence is necessary to promote the revision of fertilizer application regimes and the transformation of fertilization systems in the Asia-Monsoon region. |
