چکیده

Grain yield of the rice can be enhanced through genetic manipulation of the yield components. Thousand grain weight is an important component which can be improved through conventional as well as molecular breeding approach. A major effect novel genomic region, TGW10, for high grain weight was identified through a bulked segregant analysis approach in Azucena × IR64 population. Markers associated with grain weight in this region were RM25719 and RM5352. These markers were located on chromosome 10 at 19.8Mb and 21.1 Mb, respectively. This QTL explained phenotypic variance of more than 20%indicating this region to be a major effect locus. Markers linked with the QTL identified in present study should be used for enhancement in the grain yield potential of rice.

Evaluation of salinity tolerance in rice genotypes

Salinity is considered as one of important physical factors influencing rice (Oryza sativa L.) production. Knowledge of salinity effects on rice seedling growth and yieldcomponents would improve management practices in fields andincrease our understanding of salt tolerance mechanisms in rice. This study was designed to assess the role of Saltol QTL in regards to effects of salinity on plant gro...

Identification and validation of a new grain weight QTL in rice.

The genetic control of grain weight (GW) remains poorly understood. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) determining the GW of rice were identified using a natural GW mutant, sgw. Using a segregating population derived from sgw (low GW) and cultivar 9311 ('9311'; indica, high GW), the chromosome segment associated with GW was detected on the short arm of chromosome 7. To validate and further refine t...

Fine mapping of a grain-weight quantitative trait locus in the pericentromeric region of rice chromosome 3.

As the basis for fine mapping of a grain-weight QTL, gw3.1, a set of near isogenic lines (NILs), was developed from an Oryza sativa, cv. Jefferson x O. rufipogon (IRGC105491) population based on five generations of backcrossing and seven generations of selfing. Despite the use of an interspecific cross for mapping and the pericentromeric location of the QTL, we observed no suppression of recomb...
