Abstract: | The genomic DNA clone RG28, linked to the major fragrance gene of rice (fgr), was assessed for polymorphism in order to produce a PCR-based marker for fragrance. A small mono-nucleotide repeat, that
was polymorphic between a pair of fragrant and non-fragrant cultivars, was identified and developed into a co-dominant PCR-based
marker. The polymorphism-information-content determinations for three microsatellite markers, that have been genetically mapped
near RG28, are also presented. These PCR-based markers will be highly useful in distinguishing fragrance-producing alleles
from non-fragrance-producing alleles at the fgr locus.
