Abstract: | Uniformity of stem height in rice directly affects crop yield potential and appearance, and has become a vital index for rice improvement. In the present study, a doubled haploid (DH) population, derived from a cross between japonica rice Chunjiang 06 and indica rice TN1 was used to analyze the quantitative trait locus (QTL) for three related traits of panicle-layer-uniformity; that is, the tallest panicle height, the lowest panicle height and panicle layer disuniformity in two locations: Hangzhou (HZ) and Hainan (HN). A total of 16 QTLs for three traits distributed on eight chromosomes were detected in two different environments. Two QTLs, qTPH -4 and qTPH -8 were co-located with the QTLs for qLPH -4 and qLPH -8, which were only significant in the HZ environment, whereas the qTPH -6 and qLPH -6 located at the same interval were only significant in the HN environment. Two QTLs, qPLD -10-1 and qPLD -10-2, were closely linked to qTPH-10 , and they might have been at the same locus. One QTL, qPLD -3, was detected in both environments, explaining more than 23% of the phenotypic variations. The CJ06 allele of qPLD -3 could increase the panicle layer disuniformity by 9.23 and 4.74 cm in the HZ and HN environments. Except for qPLD -3, almost all other QTLs for the same trait were detected only in one environment, indicating that these three traits were dramatically affected by environmental factors. The results may be useful for elucidation of the molecular mechanism of panicle-layer-uniformity and marker assisted breeding for super-rice. |
