the possibility of occurrence of some rearrangements inside and or around coxii and atp6 genes and their relationship with male sterility in rice lines having wild abortive (wa)  cytoplasm was studied. two sterile (ir58025a and ir62829a) and two maintainer lines (ir58025b and ir62829b) were used. radioactive southern blotting was employed to carry out the experiments. the hybridization of coxii...

Hybrid rice has an average 15 % to 20 yield advantage over inbred lines. The availability of stable cytoplasmic male sterility system is vital for commercial hybrid rice. experiment was conducted develop japonica type CMS lines national varieties. National varieties were tested determine as maintainer, or restorer features via test cross. crosses made by using 19 and 21 1 line. All which are de...

Genes involved in the fenility restoration (llf) ofwild-abortive (WA)-type cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) in rice have not been clearly identified, because of the inconsistency of their number and map position, Although the IILI genes, which restore Chinsurah Boro (BT)-type CMS, have been recently isolated, their efi fects on WA-type CMS are still unclear, In the present study, near-isogenic ...

Rice wild abortive (WA) type cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is commercially used for production of hybrid seeds in China. Two fertility restorer genes in the CMS-WA system were detected with SSLP markers in this study. An F 2 population consisting of 210 excessive sterile individuals from a cross between Zhenshan 97A and a strong restorer line IR24 was used for mapping of Rf4. The genetic dis...

Weedy rice infests paddy fields worldwide at an alarmingly increasing rate. There is substantial evidence indicating that many weedy rice forms originated from or are closely related to cultivated rice. There is suspicion that the outbreak of weedy rice in China may be related to widely grown hybrid rice due to its heterosis and the diversity of its progeny, but this notion remains unsupported ...

The white-apricot (wa) allele differs from the wild-type white gene by the presence of the retrovirus-like transposable element copia within the transcription unit. Most RNAs derived from wa have 3' termini within this insertion, and only small amounts of structurally normal RNA are produced. The activity of wa is reduced in trans by a semidominant mutation in the gene Enhancer-of-white-apricot...

the present study was carried out with the objective of validating linked ssr markers to rf genes and adopting marker assisted selection (mas) for restorer/non-restorer line detection in wild abortive (wa) type of cytoplasmic male sterility (cms). twelve ssr markers reported to be linked to rf genes were analyzed in the mapping population of nedaa/pajouhesh. among these, three markers, namely, ...

tagging of restorer genes for wild abortive (wa) of cytoplasmic male sterility was carried out by studying 10000 individuals from an f2 population of a cross between ir58025a × ir42686r. this study was primarily carried out to reduce the distance of the already known markers for rf gene. this f2 population was identified to be unique as four rf genes could be tagged to ssr markers on chromosome...
