The partial sterility of hybrids between the indica and japonica rice subspecies of Asian cultivated rice is a serious constraint
for utilizing inter-subspecific heterosis in hybrid rice breeding. In this study, we have investigated the relationship between
molecular-marker polymorphism and indica-japonica hybrid fertility using a diallel set involving 20 rice accessions including
9 indica and 11 japonica varieties. Spikelet fertility of the resulting 190 F1s and their parents was examined in a replicated field trial. Intra-subspecific hybrids showed much higher spikelet fertility
than inter-subspecific hybrids except in crosses involving wide-compatibility varieties. The parents were surveyed for DNA
polymorphism using 96 RFLP and ten SSR markers, which revealed extensive genetic differentiation between indica and japonica
varieties. A large number of markers detected highly significant effects on hybrid fertility. The chromosomal locations for
many of the positive markers coincided well with previously identified loci for hybrid sterility. The correlation between
hybrid fertility and parental distance was low in both intra- and inter-subspecific crosses. The results suggest that the
genetic basis of indica-japonica hybrid sterility is complex. It is the qualitative, rather than the quantitative, difference
between the parents that determines the fertility of hybrids.

The rice indica/japonica hybrid shows strong heterosis.However,such inter-subspecific hybrid can't be directly used in rice production due to its low spikelet fertility.The S5 locus was proved to be associated with fertility of indica/japonica hybrid and its S5n allele from wide-compatibility variety(WCV)is capable to overcome fertility barrier.In the present study,we reported the causal sites in the S5 locus responsible for compatibility of indica/japonica hybrid.Fine-mapping of the S5 locus using the 11 test-cross families pinpoints a candidate S5 locus encoding aspartic protease(Asp).Intragenic recombination within the Asp gene happened in a number of recombinants,resulting in chimeric S5j-S5n alleles.Just like S5n,the chimeric s5j-S5n allele displayed higher spikelet fertility when combined with the S5i allele.In the complementary test,however,the S5n allele from WCVs failed to enhance fertilities of the indica/japonica hybrids.Compared to both indica and japonica varieties.all nine WCVs from different resources are characterized with a 136 bp deletion in the Asp N-terminus.which probably renders the S5n allele non-functional.Furthermore,an A/C polymorphic site is detected 1,233 bp downstream of the Asp start codon.The heterozygous A/C site of the Asp gene in indica/japonica hybrid is believed to be the casual factorto causc partial sterility.The functional makers based on the two polymorphic sites will be broadly used in developing wide-compatibility rice varieties. 相似文献

Drought-induced spikelet sterility is associated with an inefficient antioxidant defence in rice panicles 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Water stress-induced spikelet sterility limits rice production under upland conditions. The causes of spikelet sterility under drought stress are poorly understood. In this study the role of antioxidant defence management in drought-induced spikelet sterility was investigated in two rice ( Oryza sativa ) genotypes differing in drought resistance. Drought-resistant N22 genotype showed less water stress-induced spikelet sterility when compared to the susceptible N118 genotype under upland conditions. The N22 panicles maintained higher RWC and turgor potential and lower H2 O2 levels across the developmental stages under water stress than that of N118 panicles. Drought-induced enhancement in superoxide dismutase (SOD, EC 1.15.1.1) activity coupled with higher ascorbate (AsA), glutathione (GSH) content and enhanced ascorbate peroxidase (APX, EC 1.11.1.11) and glutathione reductase (GR, EC 1.6.4.2) activities resulted in lower H2 O2 levels in N22 panicles. In contrast, insufficient enhancement in SOD, APX and GR activities resulted in relatively higher H2 O2 levels under water stress in N118 panicles. The N22 panicles exhibited a higher number of SOD and APX isozymes in comparison with N118 panicles that might provide better reactive oxygen species scavenging. Hence it is concluded that well-equipped antioxidant defence plays an important role in minimizing water stress-induced spikelet sterility in upland rice. 相似文献

A major locus for submergence tolerance mapped on rice chromosome 9 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18

Submergence stress is a widespread problem in rice-growing environments where drainage is impeded. A few cultivars can tolerate more than 10 days of submergence, but the genes conferring this tolerance have not been identified. We used randon-amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers to map submergence tolerance in 169 F2 plants and the resulting F3 families of a cross between a tolerant indica rice line, IR40931-26, and a susceptible japonica line, PI543851. IR40931-26 inherited strong submergence tolerance from the unimproved cultivar FR13A. Eight-day old F3 seedlings were submerged for 14–16 days in 55-cm deep tanks, and tolerance was scored after 7 days recovery on a scale of 1 (tolerant) to 9 (susceptible). The tolerant and susceptible parents scored 1.5 and 8.4, respectively, and the F3 means ranged from 1.6 to 8.9. Two bulks were formed with DNA from F2 plants corresponding to the nine most tolerant and the nine most susceptible F3 families. Of 624 RAPD primers used to screen the bulks, five produced bands associated with either tolerance or susceptibility. These markers were mapped to a region of chromosome 9 by linkage to RFLP markers. A submergence tolerance quantitative trait locus (QTL), here designatedSub1, was located ca. 4 cM from the RFLP marker C1232 and accounted for 69% of the phenotypic variance for the trait. 相似文献

Significant segregation of spikelet fertility occurred in an F2 population derived from a spikelet fertility-normal F1 hybrid produced by a cross between Palawan, a japonica variety, and IR42, an indica variety. To identify factors controlling the fertility segregation, we used 104 RFLP markers covering all 12 rice chromosomes to investigate the association of spikelet fertility and marker segregation. We found that the segregation of two sets of gene pairs was significantly (P < 0.001) associated with fertility segregation. The first pair of genes was linked to RFLP marker RG778 on chromosome 12 and RFLP markers RG690/RG369 on chromosome 1. A significant reduction in fertility was observed when the plants were homozygote at RG778 with the indica allele as well as homozygote at RG690/RG369 with the japonica allele. The second pair of genes was linked to RG218 on chromosome 12 and RG650 on chromosome 7, respectively. The recombinant homozygote at these two loci showed a significant reduction on spikelet fertility. The non-allelic interaction effect was further modified by a gene linked to RG778, resulting in even lower fertility. The results of this study provides the first evidence of chromosomal localization of sporophytic sterility genes whose interaction can result in a reduction of spikelet fertility in the F2 derived from fertility-normal F1. 相似文献

Hybrid sterility presents a major bottleneck in hybrid crop breeding and causes postzygotic reproductive isolation in speciation.Here, we summarize the current understanding of the genetics of rice hybrid sterility and highlight new advances in deciphering the molecular basis of the major genetic loci for hybrid sterility in rice. We also discuss practical strategies for overcoming reproductive barriers to utilize hybrid vigor in inter-specific and inter-subspecific hybrid rice breeding. 相似文献

Although several genetic forms of rare or syndromic hypertriglyceridemia have been reported, little is known about the specific chromosomal regions across the genome harboring susceptibility genes for common forms of hypertriglyceridemia. Therefore, we conducted a genomewide scan for susceptibility genes influencing plasma triglyceride (TG) levels in a Mexican American population. We used both phenotypic and genotypic data from 418 individuals distributed across 27 low-income, extended Mexican American families. For the analyses, TG values were log transformed (ln TG). We used a variance-components technique to conduct multipoint linkage analyses for localizing susceptibility genes that determine variation in TG levels. We used an approximately 10-15-cM map, which was made on the basis of information from 295 microsatellite markers. After accounting for the effects of sex and sex-specific age terms, we found significant evidence for linkage (LOD = 3.88) of ln TG levels to a genetic location between the markers GABRB3 and D15S165 on chromosome 15q. This putative locus explains 39.7+/-7% (P=.000012) of total phenotypic variation in ln TG levels. Suggestive evidence was found for linkage of ln TG levels to two different locations on chromosome 7, which are approximately 85 cM apart from each other. Also, there is some evidence for linkage of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations to a genetic location near one of the regions on chromosome 7. In conclusion, we found strong evidence for linkage of ln TG levels to a genetic location on chromosome 15q in a Mexican American population, which is prone to disease conditions such as type 2 diabetes and the insulin-resistance syndrome that are associated with hypertriglyceridemia. This putative locus appears to have a major influence on ln TG variation. 相似文献

Much evidence has shown that postzygotic reproductive isolation (hybrid inviability or sterility) evolves by the accumulation of interlocus incompatibilities between diverging populations. Although in theory only a single pair of incompatible loci is needed to isolate species, empirical work in Drosophila has revealed that hybrid fertility problems often are highly polygenic and complex. In this article we investigate the genetic basis of hybrid sterility between two closely related species of monkeyflower, Mimulus guttatus and M. nasutus. In striking contrast to Drosophila systems, we demonstrate that nearly complete hybrid male sterility in Mimulus results from a simple genetic incompatibility between a single pair of heterospecific loci. We have genetically mapped this sterility effect: the M. guttatus allele at the hybrid male sterility 1 (hms1) locus acts dominantly in combination with recessive M. nasutus alleles at the hybrid male sterility 2 (hms2) locus to cause nearly complete hybrid male sterility. In a preliminary screen to find additional small-effect male sterility factors, we identified one additional locus that also contributes to some of the variation in hybrid male fertility. Interestingly, hms1 and hms2 also cause a significant reduction in hybrid female fertility, suggesting that sex-specific hybrid defects might share a common genetic basis. This possibility is supported by our discovery that recombination is reduced dramatically in a cross involving a parent with the hms1-hms2 incompatibility. 相似文献

In the fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae), two sympatric strains have been recognized that have been termed corn strain (C) and rice strain (R), referring to their most common host plants. Both strains are reproductively isolated via a distinct prezygotic barrier as well as via an intriguing postzygotic phenomenon: when R females have mated with C males, the resulting RC hybrid females exhibit dramatically reduced fertility independent of their mating partner. Here, we demonstrate that the reduced fertility is caused by the fact that these females refrain from mating, that is, females are behaviorally sterile. We identified a Z‐chromosomally linked sterility locus that is most likely incompatible with yet to be identified autosomal (or cytoplasmic) factors, leading to the observed sexual abstinence. Within‐chromosome mapping revealed the sterility locus to be located in an area of strongly reduced interstrain recombination. 相似文献

The temperate japonica rice cultivar M202 is the predominant variety grown in California due to its tolerance to low temperature stress, good grain quality and high yield. Earlier analysis of a recombinant inbred line mapping population derived from a cross between M202 and IR50, an indica cultivar that is highly sensitive to cold stress, resulted in the identification of a number of QTL conferring tolerance to cold-induced wilting and necrosis. A major QTL, qCTS12, located on the short arm of chromosome 12, contributes over 40% of the phenotypic variance. To identify the gene(s) underlying qCTS12, we have undertaken the fine mapping of this locus. Saturating the short arm of chromosome 12 with microsatellite markers revealed that qCTS12 is closest to RM7003. Using RM5746 and RM3103, which are immediately outside of RM7003, we screened 1,954 F5-F10 lines to find recombinants in the qCTS12 region. Additional microsatellite markers were identified from publicly available genomic sequence and used to fine map qCTS12 to a region of approximately 87 kb located on the BAC clone OSJNBb0071I17. This region contains ten open reading frames (ORFs) consisting of five hypothetical and expressed proteins of unknown function, a transposon protein, a putative NBS-LRR disease resistance protein, two zeta class glutathione S-transferases (OsGSTZ1 and OsGSTZ2), and a DAHP synthetase. Further fine mapping with markers developed from the ORFs delimited the QTL to a region of about 55 kb. The most likely candidates for the gene(s) underlying qCTS12 are OsGSTZ1 and OsGSTZ2.The mention of trade names or commercial products in this publication is solely for the purpose of providing specific information and does not imply recommendation or endorsement by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. 相似文献

Kala-azar (KA) is a life-threatening protozoal disease caused by Leishmania parasites (L. donovani, L. chagasi, and L. infantum). The disease, which is also called "visceral leishmaniasis," is prevalent in Africa, South America, Asia, and the Mediterranean basin. Epidemics occur periodically, killing a large number of infected individuals. Factors determining whether a patient remains asymptomatic or develops KA are still largely unknown. In a previous study that was performed during an outbreak of KA in a village on the Ethiopian-Sudanese border, we showed that KA was more frequent in certain families and ethnic groups, thereby suggesting that host genetic factors play an important role in the development of the disease. Here, we report the results of a genomewide linkage study performed on 63 Sudanese families selected from the most affected ethnic group and including 169 children with KA. Significant linkage (LOD score 3.50 [P=3x10-5] in all patients; LOD score 3.90 [P=10-5] in patients who were affected early in the outbreak) was obtained with markers on chromosome 22q12. These results are the first evidence of a major genetic effect on the development of human KA. They may lead to identification of genes critical in the pathogenesis of this disease and to new therapeutic interventions against this parasite, which is developing resistance to available drugs. 相似文献

Identification of an 85-kb DNA fragment containing pms1, a locus for photoperiod-sensitive genic male sterility in rice 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Photoperiod-sensitive genic male-sterile rice has a number of desirable characteristics for hybrid rice production. Previous studies identified pms1, located on chromosome 7, as a major locus for photoperiod-sensitive genic male sterility. The objective of this study was to localize the pms1 locus to a specific DNA fragment by genetic and physical mapping. Using 240 highly sterile individuals and a random sample of 599 individuals from an F2 population of over 5000 individuals from a cross between Minghui 63 and 32001S, we localized the pms1 locus by molecular marker analysis to a genetic interval of about 4 cM, 0.25 cM from RG477 on one side and 3.8 cM from R1807 on the other side. A contig map composed of seven BAC clones spanning approximate 500 kb in length was constructed for the pms1 region by screening a BAC library of Minghui 63 DNA using RFLP markers and chromosomal walking. Analysis of recombination events in the pms1 region among the highly sterile individuals reduced the length of the contig map to three BAC clones. Sequencing of one BAC clone, 2109, identified two SSR markers located 85 kb apart in the clone that flanked the pms1 locus on both sides, as indicated by the distribution of recombination events. We thus concluded that the pms1 locus was located on the fragment bounded by the two SSR markers. 相似文献

xs1 is a male sterile rice mutant derived from a spontaneous mutation. Pollen development in the xs1 mutant proceeds normally until the vacuolation stage, at which time xs1 pollen fails to vacuolate and no viable pollen is produced. Genetic analysis indicates that the xs1 mutant phenotype is controlled by a single recessive gene, designated vacuolation retardation 1 (vr1), which was mapped to rice chromosome 4. In order to fine-map the vr1 locus, two large mapping populations were generated and several SSR and InDel markers were developed from publicly available rice genomic sequences. By employing a strategy of chromosome-walking, the vr1 gene was finally located within a genetic interval of 0.27 cM, flanked by the markers FID30 and FS15, with distances of 0.11 and 0.16 cM, respectively, and co-segregating with the marker FC4-2. Based on the japonica rice genome sequence, the vr1 locus is estimated to cover a 48-kb region containing eight putative genes. Our results will facilitate the cloning and functional characterization of the vr1 gene. 相似文献

Summary Spontaneous mutants of Escherichia coli K12 displaying an increased level of the kanamycin resistance conferred by plasmid pGR71 were selected. Several mutants obtained in this way apparently carry large chromosomal deletions extending into galU and/or bglY (27 min). This positive selection of deletions allowed detection of a new locus located between galU and bglY. Deletions of this locus are responsible for increased resistance to kanamycin (Irk), decreased resistance to l-serine in minimal medium (Drs) and decreased resistance to chloramphenicol (Drc) when a cat gene is present in the bacteria. 相似文献

TAC1, a major quantitative trait locus controlling tiller angle in rice 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

A critical step during rice (Oryza sativa) cultivation is dense planting: a wider tiller angle will increase leaf shade and decrease photosynthesis efficiency, whereas a narrower tiller angle makes for more efficient plant architecture. The molecular basis of tiller angle remains unknown. This research demonstrates that tiller angle is controlled by a major quantitative trait locus, TAC1 (Tiller Angle Control 1). TAC1 was mapped to a 35-kb region on chromosome 9 using a large F(2) population from crosses between an indica rice, IR24, which displays a relatively spread-out plant architecture, and an introgressed line, IL55, derived from japonica rice Asominori, which displays a compact plant architecture with extremely erect tillers. Genetic complementation further identified the TAC1 gene, which harbors three introns in its coding region and a fourth 1.5-kb intron in the 3'-untranslated region. A mutation in the 3'-splicing site of this 1.5-kb intron from 'AGGA' to 'GGGA' decreases the level of tac1, resulting in a compact plant architecture with a tiller angle close to zero. Further sequence verification of the mutation in the 3'-splicing site of the 1.5-kb intron revealed that the tac1 mutation 'GGGA' was present in 88 compact japonica rice accessions and TAC1 with 'AGGA' was present in 21 wild rice accessions and 43 indica rice accessions, all with the spread-out form, indicating that tac1 had been extensively utilized in densely planted rice grown in high-latitude temperate areas and at high altitudes where japonica rice varieties are widely cultivated. 相似文献

Hybrid sterility frequently occurs in crosses between indica and japonica subspecies of Asian cultivated rice. In this study, we investigated the cytological processes involved in formation and development of male and female gametes as well as their interactions in fertilization, using an indica/japonica hybrid in comparison with an indica/indica hybrid. It was found that more than 50% of the microspores generated in the indica/japonica hybrid could not develop into functional pollen. The abortion rate of microspores in the indica/japonica hybrid was much higher than that in the indica/indica hybrid. Abortive embryo sacs made up roughly 70% of the embryo sacs examined in the indica/japonica hybrid, which was also much higher than that detected in the indica/indica hybrid. Moreover, the amount of pollen adherence on stigmas of the indica variety upon hand-pollination with pollen from the japonica variety was much lower than the indica/indica pollination, and the number of pollen adhered on the stigmas by natural self-pollination was much greater in the indica/indica hybrid than in the indica/japonica hybrid. The indica/japonica hybrid also encountered difficulties in pollen tube growth after pollination, and the fertilization rate of the indica/japonica hybrid was much lower than that of the indica/indica hybrid. These results clearly illustrate the complexity of the mechanisms underlying inter-subspecific hybrid sterility in rice involving both pre- and post-zygotic reproductive isolation mechanisms. 相似文献

The positional cloning of the hypocretin receptor 2, the gene for autosomal recessive canine narcolepsy, has led to the development of a physical map spanning a large portion of canine chromosome 12 (CFA12), in a region corresponding to human chromosome 6p12-q13. More than 40 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were used in homology search experiments, together with chromosome walking, to build both physical and radiation hybrid maps of the CFA12 13-21 region. The resulting map of bacterial artificial chromosome ends, ESTs, and microsatellite markers represents the longest continuous high-density map of the dog genome reported to date. These data further establish the dog as a system for studying disease genes of interest to human populations and highlight feasible approaches for positional cloning of disease genes in organisms where genomic resources are limited. 相似文献
