Bulgarian common wheat cultivars released in the period 1925–2003 were studied using the gibberellic acid (GA) test and microsatellite analysis of the Xgwm261 locus on chromosome 2DS to identify the semi-dwarfing (Rht) genes. The old cultivars, isolated through selection from landraces, carried rare alleles (211- and 215-bp) at Xgwm261 locus, and those developed by hybridisation to foreign cultivars, carried the 165- and 174-bp alleles. Forty-two (55.3%) of 76 modern cultivars were GA-responsive. The 192-bp allele, diagnostic for Rht8, was observed in 64 (84.2%) modern cultivars, of which 37 carry Rht8 alone, and 27 possess a combination of Rht8 and a GA-insensitive allele viz. Rht-B1d (17); Rht-D1b (6) and Rht-B1b (4). The 174-bp allele is present in seven cultivars, only one of which is photoperiod-sensitive, and the rest are day-length insensitive. The 203-bp allele was found in six modern cultivars. Cultivars carrying the Rht8 allele are the most widespread and some of them have been cultivated for a long period. Cultivars with the `Saitama 27' allele (Rht-B1d) are the most productive and are second in distribution in the country. The recently observed trend for increasing the proportion of cultivars with GA-insensitive Rht genes is probably due to their combination with the 192-bp allele of Xgwm261 locus tightly linked to the Ppd-D1, to the break of the link between the 174-bp allele and ppd-D1, and to the introduction of other genes influencing flowering time.  相似文献

Based on studies of the distribution of alleles at the important Rht and Ppd loci on wheat chromosomes 4B, 4D and 2D, different groups of winter wheat cultivars registered in the Czech and Slovak Republics during the period 1976–2007 were examined for a range of agronomic traits using official data from multi-location trials. Significant variation for all traits was detected among and between genotype groups. The frequent introduction of ‘Rht-D1b’ cultivars from the UK and Western Europe to the Czech Republic since 1995 has positively influenced lodging resistance and undoubtedly also yielding ability, but negatively affected winter-hardiness and bread making quality. An improved opportunity for earlier flowering cultivars with high winter-hardiness levels, in combination with high bread-making quality, can be obtained with genotypes carrying the Xgwm261 allele 192-bp that is probably indicative of the presence of Rht8. While GA insensitive Rht genes caused approximately a 10 cm reduction of plant height, the 192-bp allele at Xgwm261 was not associated, in these conditions, with a significant reduction in plant height when compared to Xgwm261 alleles 165- and 174-bp. Likewise, the photoperiod insensitive allele Ppd-D1a did not have a significant effect on plant height and it had not adversely affected other characters. Later heading genotypes carrying Xgwm261 alleles174- and 165-bp, often in combination with Ppd-D1b, could probably guarantee broader adaptability, which is highly desirable for changeable weather conditions. While the presence of the 192-bp allele was clearly associated with suitability for cultivation in the warmer maize growing regions, this was not so obvious for Ppd-D1a, particularly when combined with the 174-bp allele. GA responsive genes did not, apparently, influence adaptability to the different growing conditions. These studies reveal that there were both shortcomings and benefits attributable to the use of germplasm from different origins when introducing Rht and Ppd alleles. These results should be helpful to breeders in optimizing the choice of parents for crossing, and selection strategy in these target environments.  相似文献

Reduction of plant height has played a significant role in improving wheat production and knowledge of dwarfing genes in Chinese wheat will be very important for developing high yielding cultivars. Molecular markers were used to detect the presence of genes Rht-B1b (Rht1), Rht-D1b (Rht2) and Rht8 in 220 wheat genotypes from autumn-sown wheat regions in China. They include landmark landraces, leading cultivars and core parents involved in wheat breeding from the 1950s to the present. Results indicated that Rht-D1b and Rht8 dominate with frequencies of 45.5% and 46.8%, respectively, followed by Rht-B1b with a frequency of 24.5%. The frequencies of Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b increased, from 8.6 to 32.2% and 36.2 to 53.4%, respectively, whereas the frequency of Rht8 has remained constant over time, when compared with cultivars released before and after 1990. This indicates that both the Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b were successfully used in wheat production in Chinese environments. Our study shows that Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b can be used in the post-anthesis heat stressed environments. Rht-B1b in Chinese wheats is derived from two sources, viz., Norin 10 and the Italian introduction St2422/464 (Rht-B1b and Rht8). The identity of Rht-B1b in these two sources still needs to be confirmed. Suwon 86 carrying both Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b, and Chinese cultivars, Huixianhong and Yaobaomai, are the primary sources of Rht-D1b in Chinese wheats. It is likely that Rht-D1b in Youbaomai derives from an unknown introduction. Italian introductions such as Funo and Abbondanza, and Lovrin 10 with the 1B/1R translocation, and Chinese landraces are the three major sources of Rht8. This information will be very valuable for wheat breeding in China, and internationally.  相似文献

Near isogenic lines (NILs) varying for reduced height (Rht) and photoperiod insensitivity (Ppd-D1) alleles in a cv. Mercia background (rht (tall), Rht-B1b, Rht-D1b, Rht-B1c, Rht8c+Ppd-D1a, Rht-D1c, Rht12) were compared for interception of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), radiation use efficiency (RUE), above-ground biomass (AGB), harvest index (HI), height, weed prevalence, lodging and grain yield, at one field site but within contrasting (‘organic’ vs. ‘conventional’) rotational and agronomic contexts, in each of 3 years. In the final year, further NILs (rht (tall), Rht-B1b, Rht-D1b, Rht-B1c, Rht-B1b+Rht-D1b, Rht-D1b+Rht-B1c) in Maris Huntsman and Maris Widgeon backgrounds were added together with 64 lines of a doubled haploid (DH) population [Savannah (Rht-D1b) × Renesansa (Rht-8c+Ppd-D1a)]. There were highly significant genotype × system interactions for grain yield, mostly because differences were greater in the conventional system than in the organic system. Quadratic fits of NIL grain yield against height were appropriate for both systems when all NILs and years were included. Extreme dwarfing was associated with reduced PAR, RUE, AGB, HI, and increased weed prevalence. Intermediate dwarfing was often associated with improved HI in the conventional system, but not in the organic system. Heights in excess of the optimum for yield were associated particularly with reduced HI and, in the conventional system, lodging. There was no statistical evidence that optimum height for grain yield varied with system although fits peaked at 85 and 96 cm in the conventional and organic systems, respectively. Amongst the DH lines, the marker for Ppd-D1a was associated with earlier flowering, and just in the conventional system also with reduced PAR, AGB and grain yield. The marker for Rht-D1b was associated with reduced height, and again just in the conventional system, with increased HI and grain yield. The marker for Rht8c reduced height, and in the conventional system only, increased HI. When using the System × DH line means as observations grain yield was associated with height and early vegetative growth in the organic system, but not in the conventional system. In the conventional system, PAR interception after anthesis correlated with yield. Savannah was the highest yielding line in the conventional system, producing significantly more grain than several lines that out yielded it in the organic system.  相似文献

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a serious wheat disease all over the world. In this study, the relationships between plant height (PH) and FHB were investigated across the whole wheat genome by QTL meta-analysis from fifty-six experiments. Coincident meta-QTL (MQTL) for PH and FHB were found on chromosomes 2D, 3A, 4B, 4D and 7A. Rht-B1, Rht-D1, Rht8, MQTLs P7 and P26 were consistent with FHB MQTLs. The meta-analysis results confirmed the negative associations of Rht-B1, Rht-D1, and Rht8 with FHB resistance. The associations of PH and FHB resistance on chromosomes 3A and 7A have not been reported and need further investigation. These regions should be given attention in breeding programs. MQTLs derived from several resistance sources were also observed. Some FHB MQTLs for different types of resistance overlapped. These findings could be useful for improving wheat varieties with resistance to FHB.  相似文献

Near isogenic lines (NILs) varying for genes for reduced height (Rht) and photoperiod insensitivity (Ppd-D1a) in a cv. Mercia background (rht (tall), Rht-B1b, Rht-D1b, Rht-B1c, Rht8c + Ppd-D1a, Rht-D1c, Rht12) were compared at one field site but within contrasting (‘organic’ vs. ‘conventional’) rotational and agronomic contexts, in each of 3 years. In the final year, further NILs (rht (tall), Rht-B1b, Rht-D1b, Rht-B1c, Rht-B1b + Rht-D1b, Rht-D1b + Rht-B1c) in both Maris Huntsman and Maris Widgeon backgrounds were added together with 64 lines of a doubled haploid (DH) population [Savannah (Rht-D1b) × Renesansa (Rht-8c + Ppd-D1a)]. Assessments included laboratory tests of germination and coleoptile length, and various field measurements of crop growth between emergence and pre jointing [plant population, tillering, leaf length, ground cover (GC), interception of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), crop dry matter (DM) and nitrogen accumulation (N), far red: red reflectance ratio (FR:R), crop height, and weed dry matter]. All of the dwarfing alleles except Rht12 in the Mercia background and Rht8c in the DHs were associated with reduced coleoptile length. Most of the dwarfing alleles (depending on background) reduced seed viability. Severe dwarfing alleles (Rht-B1c, Rht-D1c and Rht12) were routinely associated with fewer plant numbers and reduced early crop growth (GC, PAR, DM, N, FR:R), and in 1 year, increased weed DM. In the Mercia background and the DHs the semi-dwarfing allele Rht-D1b was also sometimes associated with reductions in early crop growth; no such negative effects were associated with the marker for Rht8c. When significant interactions between cropping system and genotype did occur it was because differences between lines were more exaggerated in the organic system than in the conventional system. Ppd-D1a was associated positively with plant numbers surviving the winter and early crop growth (GC, FR:R, DM, N, PAR, height), and was the most significant locus in a QTL analysis. We conclude that, within these environmental and system contexts, genes moderating development are likely to be more important in influencing early resource capture than using Rht8c as an alternative semi-dwarfing gene to Rht-D1b.  相似文献

Two wide hybrids, Diplotaxis erucoides (2n = 14) × Brassica rapa (2n = 20) and B. maurorum (2n = 20) × B. rapa, were developed using the sequential ovary–ovule culture. Reciprocal crosses failed, possibly as a consequence of strong unilateral incompatibility. The F 1 hybrids in each combination were completely male sterile and morphologically intermediate to the respective parents. DNA marker polymorphism and chromosome counts confirmed their hybrid nature. High frequency of bivalents in the F 1 and the presence of trivalents/quadrivalents in the derived amphiploids suggested genomic duplications and homoeology of the parental genomes. Up to three homoeologous pairs between the D. erucoides (DeDe) and B. rapa (AA) genomes, and one between B. maurorum (BmBm) and B. rapa genomes were observed. Successful synthesis of the F 1 hybrids and amphiploids of B. rapa with D. erucoides and B. maurorum, and allosyndetic chromosome pairing are expected to permit introgressions of desirable loci into the cultivated Brassica germplasm, especially for resistance to Alternaria brassicae and Albugo candida.  相似文献

Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) greatly reduces the quality and economic value of wheat grain. In this study, a total of 168 International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT) wheat germplasm lines were examined to characterize the haplotypes of Vp-1A, Vp-1B and Vp-1D, which are located on the long arms of chromosomes 3A, 3B and 3D, respectively. Among them, five new alleles of Vp-1Aa (the wild allele) were identified on chromosome 3A, and designated as Vp-1Ab, Vp-1Ac, Vp-1Ad, Vp-1Ae and Vp-1Af, respectively. The main difference between Vp-1Aa and the newly identified alleles was in the numbers of CTT repeats located in the third intron, but Vp-1Af also had 6 and 2 bp deletions at positions 2860–2865 bp and 2880–2881 bp, and possessed five SNPs within the same intron region. In the Vp-1B locus, several alleles (Vp-1Ba, Vp-1Bb, Vp-1Bc, Vp-1Bd, Vp-1Be and Vp-1Bf) have already been identified. In the present material only two, the already known allele Vp-1Bc, and a new one, designated as Vp-1Bg, were detected. Compared with Vp-Ba, Vp-1Bg had additional insertion of TCC at position 2372 bp and a 9 bp change from CTGCATC AC to GCATCAGTG at 2417–2425 bp. However, no polymorphism was detected in Vp-1D. The frequencies of Vp-1Aa Vp-1Ab, Vp-1Ac, Vp-1Ad, Vp-1Ae, and Vp-1Af were 65, 10, 11, 4, 5 and 5%, respectively. For Vp-1B, 155 out of the 168 lines were Vp-1Bc; the remaining 13 were Vp-1Bg. Analyses of the germination index (GI) and abscisic acid (ABA) sensitivity showed that genotypes with Vp-1Ab or Vp-1Af showed higher PHS resistance than the ones with other alleles, suggesting that they might be valuable for CIMMYT breeding program or germplasm introduction. The results presented here will underpin the introduction of germplasm from CIMMYT and the improvement of PHS resistance, both in CIMMYT and elsewhere.  相似文献

Late maturity α-amylase (LMA) is a genetic defect that is fairly widely spread in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) germplasm, and recently detected in durum cultivars, which can result in unacceptably high α-amylase activity (low falling number) in ripe grain. LMA has also been observed at unexpectedly high frequency and severity in synthetic hexaploid wheats derived from the interspecific hybridisation of Triticum durum (AABB) and Aegilops tauschii (DD). Since synthetic hexaploids represent an important new source of resistances/tolerances to a range of biotic and abiotic stresses for wheat breeders, there is a pressing need to understand the mechanisms involved in LMA in synthetics and develop strategies for avoiding its adverse effects on grain quality. The objectives of this study were to firstly, compare the LMA phenotype of synthetics that varied for plant height, secondly, to characterise the LMA phenotype in groups of synthetics derived from the same durum parents and finally to determine whether LMA in primary synthetics is associated with the QTL previously reported in conventional bread wheat. More than 250 synthetic hexaploids, a range of durum cultivars and a doubled haploid population derived from Worrakatta (non-LMA) × AUS29663 (high LMA synthetic) were phenotyped and genotyped with markers reported to be linked to LMA in conventional bread wheat and markers diagnostic for the semi-dwarfing gene, Rht1. More than 85% of synthetics were prone to LMA, approximately 60% ranked as very high. Genetic control of LMA in synthetic hexaploids appeared to involve QTL located on 7B, and to a lesser extent 3B, similar to bread wheats. However, the LMA phenotype of many synthetic hexaploids appeared to be more extreme than could be explained by comparisons with bread wheat even taking into account the apparent absence of Rht1 in most genotypes. Other mechanisms, possibly triggered by the interaction between the AABB and DD genomes cannot be excluded. The presence of wild type rht1 in most synthetic hexaploids and their extreme height is difficult to reconcile with the semi-dwarf, Rht1, stature of many of the durums used in the interspecific hybridisation process. Mechanisms that could explain this observation remain unclear.  相似文献

Summary The GA response, Rht genes and culm length of 133 Norin varieties, 6 breeding lines and 16 landraces of Japanese wheat were investigated. Out of 133 Norin varieties tested, 103 were GA-insensitive and 30 GA-responsive. The 6 breeding lines were all GA-insensitive. Out of 16 landraces tested, 10 were GA-insensitive and 6 GA-responsive. Among the 10 GA-insensitive landraces, only Daruma had a Rht1 genotype. The other 9 had a Rht2 genotype. None of the landraces tested carried both Rht1 and Rht2 or Rht3. Out of the 103 GA-insensitive Norin varieties, 22 carried only Rht1, another 79 carried only Rht2, and only Norin 10 and Kokeshikomugi carried both Rht1 and Rht2. No tested variety carried Rht3. Some Norin varieties carrying Rht2 showed tall culms comparable to that of the rht tester line Chinese Spring. These results suggest that these varieties had a nullifier or modifier gene(s) or height promoting genes in the background controlling the height-reducing effect of Rht2. Conversely, six GA-responsive Norin varieties were as short as Akakomugi which carries the GA-responsive Rht genes, Rht8 and Rht9. The also seemed to carry a GA-responsive Rht gene or genes, and moreover all but one may carry gene(s) other than the Akakomugi genes. The origin of Rht1 and Rht2 of Norin 10 was speculated on the GA-response and Rht genotypes of its related varieties and landraces.  相似文献

A microsatellite marker WMS261 developed at I.P.K., Gatersleben,Germany, co-segregates with the semi-dwarfing gene Rht8. Screens ofover 800 wheat varieties from 20 countries show 90% carry WMS-261alleles with 165, 174 or 192 base pairs (bp). The 192bp allele diagnosticof Rht8 occurs in most screened Southern European varieties. Anallele with 165 bp occurs in the majority of CIMMYT Mexican varieties andin most varieties bred in countries that utilize CIMMYT germplasm.Agronomic studies of single chromosome recombinant line mappingpopulations segregating for WMS 261 alleles with 165, 174 or 192 bp,show compared to the 174bp allele the 192bp allele reduces height byaround 8 cm and the 165 bp allele increases height by around 3cm. Theresults indicate the importance and widespread utilization of Rht8 asa dwarfing gene in southern Europe and suggest an adaptative significanceto the height promoting 165 bp allele in CIMMYT material.  相似文献

A wheat microsatellite locus, Xgwm 261, whose 192-bp allele closelylinked to the dwarfing gene Rht8, on chromosome 2D, was used toscreen 71 wheat cultivars from 13 countries to assess the variation at thislocus. Screening of this wheat collection showed that a 165-bp allele anda 174-bp allele were the most frequent. None of the New Zealand cultivarspossessed a 192-bp allele specific to Rht8, while only one cultivarfrom the US produced this important allele. The frequency of a 192-bpallele among these wheat cultivars was 5.63%. The highest allelefrequency was observed for a 174-bp fragment (52.11%) followed by a165-bp fragment (26.76%). The only durum wheat `Cham 1', did notshow any amplification due to the absence of D genome. Four new novelalleles, 180-bp, 198-bp, 200-bp and 204-bp present in the US and NewZealand wheat cultivars are reported.  相似文献

Grain hardness plays an important role in determining both milling performance and quality of the end-use products produced from common or bread wheat. The objective of this study was to characterize allelic variations at the Pina and Pinb loci in Xinjiang wheat germplasm for further understanding the mechanisms involved in endosperm texture formation, and the status of grain texture in Chinese bread wheat. A total of 291 wheat cultivars, including 56 landraces, and 95 introduced and 140 locally improved cultivars, grown in Xinjiang, were used for SKCS measurement and molecular characterization. Among the harvested grain samples, 185 (63.6%), 40 (13.7%), and 66 (22.7%) were classified as hard, mixed and soft, respectively. Eight different genotypes for the Pina and Pinb loci were identified, including seven previously reported genotypes, viz., Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1a, Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1b, Pina-D1b/Pinb-D1a, Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1p, Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1q, Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1aa, Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1ab, and a novel Pinb allele, Pinb-D1ac. This new allele, detected in Kashibaipi (local landrace) and Red Star (from Russia) has a double mutation at the 257th (G to A substitution) and 382nd (C to T substitution) nucleotide positions of the coding region. Pina-D1b, Pinb-D1b, and Pinb-D1p were the most common alleles in Xinjiang wheat germplasm, with frequencies of 14.3%, 38.1% and 28.6% in hard textured landraces, 25.5%, 56.9% and 11.8% in hard introduced cultivars, and 24.8%, 47.8% and 26.5% in hard locally improved cultivars, respectively. The restriction enzymes ApaI, SapI, BstXI and SfaNI were used to identify Pinb-D1ab or Pinb-D1ac, Pinb-D1b, Pinb-D1e and Pinb-Dg, respectively, by digesting PCR products of the Pinb gene. The unique grain hardness distribution in Xinjiang bread wheat, as well as the CAPs markers for identification of the Pinb alleles provided useful information for breeding wheat cultivars with optimum grain textures.

Triticum monococcum L. (2n = 2x = 14, AmAm genome) is one of the most ancient of the domesticated crops in the Middle East, but it is not the ancestor of the A genome of durum wheat (T. durum Desf. 2n = 4x = 28, genomes BBAA) and bread wheat (T. aestivum L., 2n = 6x = 42, genomes BBAADD). It has been suggested that some differentiation has occurred between the Am and A genomes. The chlorina mutants at the cn-A1 locus located on chromosome 7AL have been described in T. aestivum L. and T. durum, and a chlorina mutant has been found in T. monococcum. The aims of our study were to establish linkage maps for chlorina mutant genes on chromosome 7A of T. aestivum and T. durum and chromosome 7Am of T. monococcum and to discuss the differentiation that has occurred between the A and Am genomes. The chlorina mutant gene was found to be linked with Xhbg234 (8.0 cM) and Xgwm282 (4.3 cM) in F2 plants of T. aestivum ANK-32A/T. petropavlovskyi k54716, and with Xbarc192 (19.5 cM) and Xgwm282 (12.0 cM) in F2 plants of T. durum ANW5A-7A/T. carthlicum #521. Both the hexaploid and tetraploid wheats contained a common marker, Xgwm282. In F2 lines of T. monococcum KT 3-21/T. sinskajae, the cn-A1 locus was bracketed by Xgwm748 (25.7 cM) and Xhbg412 (30.8 cM) on chromosome 7AmL. The distal markers, Xhbg412, Xgwm282, and Xgwm332, were tightly linked in T. aestivum and T. durum. The common marker Xhbg412 indicated that the chlorina mutant genes are located on chromosome 7AL and that they are homoeologous mutations.  相似文献

In wheat, semidwarfism resulting from reduced height (Rht)‐B1b and Rht‐D1b was integral to the ‘green revolution’. The principal donors of these alleles are ‘Norin 10’, ‘Seu Seun 27’ and ‘Suwon 92’ that, according to historical records, inherited semidwarfism from the Japanese landrace ‘Daruma’. The objective of this study was to examine the origins of Rht‐B1b and Rht‐D1b by growing multiple seed bank sources of cultivars comprising the historical pedigrees of the principal donor lines and scoring Rht‐1 genotype and plant height. This revealed that ‘Norin 10’ and ‘Suwon 92’ sources contained Rht‐B1b and Rht‐D1b, but the ‘Seu Seun 27’ source did not contain a semidwarf allele. Neither Rht‐B1b nor Rht‐D1b could be definitively traced back to ‘Daruma’, and both ‘Daruma’ sources contained only Rht‐B1b. However, ‘Daruma’ remains the most likely donor of Rht‐B1b and Rht‐D1b. We suggest that the disparity between historical pedigrees and Rht‐1 genotypes occurs because the genetic make‐up of seed bank sources differs from that of the cultivars actually used in the pedigrees. Some evidence also suggests that an alternative Rht‐D1b donor may exist.  相似文献

The Lr56/Yr38 translocation consists primarily of alien-derived chromatin with only the 6AL telomeric region being of wheat origin. To improve its utility in wheat breeding, an attempt was made to exchange excess Ae. sharonensis chromatin for wheat chromatin through homoeologous crossover in the absence of Ph1. Translocation heterozygotes that lacked Ph1 were test-crossed with Chinese Spring nullisomic 6A tetrasomic 6B and nullisomic 6A-tetrasomic 6D plants and the resistant (hemizygous 6A) progeny were analyzed with four microsatellite markers. Genetic mapping suggested general homoeology between wheat chromosome 6A and the translocation chromosomes, and showed that Lr56 was located near the long arm telomere. Thirty of the 53 recombinants had breakpoints between Lr56 and the most distal marker Xgwm427. These were characterized with additional markers. The data suggested that recombinants #39, 157 and 175 were wheat chromosomes 6A with small intercalary inserts of foreign chromatin containing Lr56 and Yr38, located distally on the long arms. These three recombinants are being incorporated into adapted germplasm. Attempts to identify the single shortest translocation and to develop appropriate markers are being continued.  相似文献

The impact of the Rht dwarfing genes on P utilization efficiency (PUTE = grain dry matter per kg P in above-ground biomass), total P uptake (Pt) and related traits was studied in the varietal backgrounds of two tall wheat cultivars, Maringa and Nainari 60. Four sets of near-isogenic lines carrying different combinations of the alleles Rht-B1b, Rht-D1b and Rht-B1c for gibberellin-insensitive dwarfism in the hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) were compared with tall controls in two field trials under conditions of adequate nutrient supply and irrigation in Northwest Mexico. The yield-increasing effect of the dwarfing genes Rht-D1b and Rht-B1b led to improved PUTE in Maringa and total P uptake in both cultivars. Also, the double dwarf line of Maringa had larger grain yields and P uptake compared to the tall control. The Rht-B1c genotypes showed low PUTE, thick roots and high P concentration in vegetative biomass indicating a surplus of assimilates and P, which could not be translocated into the grains. A similar problem could be observed in Nainari 60 with Rht-B1b and Rht-D1b, which produced the largest grain dry matter with the lowest P concentrations in grains although they showed high P accumulation in straw. Most of the net P uptake occurred before anthesis. P absorption after anthesis was more critical for the dwarf genotypes. For double dwarfs and Rht-B1c, respectively, only 3% and 21% of the total accumulated P at maturity was absorbed at post-anthesis. The grain P of the dwarf lines came more from P accumulated at pre-anthesis and translocated from the vegetative biomass into the grain. The pre-anthesis P accumulation was positively correlated with spikes per m2 (r = 0.91), whereas post-anthesis P accumulation correlated better with grains per spike(r = 0.72), and thousand kernel weight (r = 0.51). P uptake efficiency played a secondary role under these non-P-limiting conditions, and differences in root length density were only slightly affected by Rht-genes. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

In a self-fertilised crop like lentil, the identification of transgressive segregants for economically important trait such as seed yield is an important aspect of any practical breeding programme. The prediction of expected transgressive segregants in F1 generation obtained as a ratio of additive genic effect [d] and additive variance (D) i.e. [d]/√D was studied in 28 crosses of lentil generated in a diallel fashion involving four parents each of macrosperma (exotic) and microsperma (Indian) types, respectively, resulting in three hybridization groups. The seed material advanced to F2, F3 and F4 generations through single seed descent method was evaluated to determine the observed transgressive segregants for seed yield/plant. The observed frequency of crosses showing more than 20% transgressive segregants in F2 to F4 generations were exhibited in 9(32%) crosses, of which 7(77%) crosses were of macrosperma × microsperma type. Genotypes Precoz and HPL-5 of the exotic group (macrosperma) produced maximum number of transgressive segregants with the genotypes L-259, L-4145 and PL-406 of the Indian origin (microsperma). Goodness of fit (non-significant χ2 value) in F2 generation was observed for 19(68%) crosses of the total genepool, out of which 9(56%) crosses each in F3 and F4 generation belonged to the macrosperma × microsperma group, depicting it as the gene pool of paramount importance to obtain maximum transgressive segregants, therefore establishing the efficacy of the method used.  相似文献

The morphological traits of leaves, such as size and shape, are major determinants of plant architecture and strongly affect high yield performance. To understand the molecular mechanism governing flag leaf length, we analyzed quantitative trait loci (QTLs) affecting flag leaf length by employing 176 F2 individuals derived from a cross between two japonica rice cultivars: Shennong265 (SN265) and Lijiangxintuanheigu (LTH). We identified qFLL3, qFLL6 and qFLL9 from this F2 population. Flag leaf length was increased by SN265 alleles at qFLL3 and qFLL6, but by LTH allele at qFLL9. In order to eliminate the influence of qFLL3 and qFLL6, one single residual heterozygous plant for qFLL9 region, RH-qFLL9, was selected based on the genotypes of 114 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and used as the parent of a segregating population. Using this segregating population of 889 plants, this region was narrowed down to an interval between RM24423 and RM24434. According to the rice annotation project database, there are 17 predicted genes in the 198-kb target region.  相似文献
