Identification of Chromosome Regions Affecting Leaf Area with Rice Chromosome Segment Substitution Lines
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this study was to obtain the information for improvement in source ability via expansion of a flag leaf area in rice (Oryza sativa L.). We identified chromosome regions affecting a trait (CRATs) for leaf area and confirmed their effects with two sets of chromosome segment substitution lines developed from indica landraces Kasalath or Nona Bokra as a donor under japonica cultivar Koshihikari genetic background. We detected 4 and 8 CRATs that increased leaf area by Kasalath and Nona Bokra alleles, respectively. With the Nona Bokra allele, CRAT on chromosome 7 (LA7) increased leaf area by 54% comparing to Koshihikari. LA7 maintained the contents of Rubisco and photosynthetic rate and as a result its “estimated” source ability of a flag leaf was increased by 23%. The effect of LA7 was stable under different environmental conditions, and might be useful for breeding rice with higher source ability and yield.

Inheritance of the fertility restoration and genotyping of rice lines at the restoring fertility (Rf) loci using molecular markers
The combination of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) in one parent and a restorer gene (Rf) to restore fertility in another are indispensable for the development of hybrid varieties. To genotype rice lines at the restoring fertility (Rf) loci, 38 lines were crossed with a sterile tester (rfrf) line. Pollen fertility test was performed to identify sterile and fertile F1 hybrids. Seven lines were ...

Chromosome segment substitution (CSS) lines have the potential for use in QTL fine mapping and map-based cloning. The standard t-test used in the idealized case that each CSS line has a single segment from the donor parent is not suitable for non-idealized CSS lines carrying several substituted segments from the donor parent. In this study, we present a likelihood ratio test based on stepwise r...

Common wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.) represents an important resource for rice improvement. Genetic populations provide the basis for a wide range of genetic and genomic studies. In particular, chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) are most powerful tools for the detection and precise mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTLs). In this study, 146 CSSLs were produced; they were deriv...

Construction of rice chromosome segment substitution lines harboring Oryza barthii genome and evaluation of yield-related traits
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important staple food in the world. To meet the increasing demand for food, a strategy for improving rice yield is needed. Alleles of wild relatives are useful because they confer adaptation to plants under diverse harsh environments and have the potential to improve rice. O. barthii is a wild rice species endemic to Africa and the known progenitor of t...
