Rice(Oryza sativa)provides>20%of the consumed calories in the human diet.However,rice is also a lead-ing source of dietary cadmium(Cd)that seriously threatens human health.Deciphering the genetic network that underlies the grain-Cd accumulation will benefit the development of low-Cd rice and mitigate the ef-fects of Cd accumulation in the rice grain.In this study,we identified a QTL gene,OsCS1,which is allelic to OsMTP11 and encodes a protein sequestering Cd in the leaf during vegetative growth and preventing Cd from being translocated to the grain after heading in rice.OsCS1 is predominantly expressed in leaf vascular parenchyma cells,where it binds to a vacuole-sorting receptor protein OsVSR2 and is translo-cated intracellularly from the trans-Golgi network to pre-vacuolar compartments and then to the vacuole.In this trafficking process,OsCS1 actively transports Cd into the endomembrane system and sequesters it in the vacuoles.There are natural variations in the promoter of OsCS1 between the indica and japonica rice subspecies.Duplication of a G-box-like motif in the promoter region of the superior allele of OsCS1 from indica rice enhances the binding of the transcription factor OsIRO2 to the OsCS1 promoter,thereby pro-moting OsCS1 expression.Introgression of this allele into commercial rice varieties could significantly lower grain-Cd levels compared to the inferior allele present in japonica rice.Collectively,our findings offer new insights into the genetic control of leaf-to-grain Cd translocation and provide a novel gene and its su-perior allele for the genetic improvement of low-Cd variety in rice.
