    Notes: Asian cultivated rice was domesticated from the wild rice, Oryza rufipogon and throughout the domestication process, a wide range of morphological and physiological changes altered the ancestral form. This study was conducted to identify the genetic basis of changes associated with the domestication process. An recombinant Inbred line (RIL) population consisting of 120 lines was developed from a cross between the Juponica cultivar.‘Hwayeongbyeo’and a presumed wild progenitor. O. rufipogon Griff. Acc.01944. The population was genotyped with 124 simple sequence length repeat (SSR) markers, providing an average interval size of 15 cM, and also evaluated for 20 traits related to domestication and agricultural performance. A total of 63 quantitative trait locus (QTLs) and one locus associated with qualitative variation for pericarp coloration were identified using single point and composite interval analysis. The number of QTLs per trait ranged from one to seven. Phenotypic variation associated with each QTL ranged from 3.7 to 40.4%. with an average of 15.3%. The results indicated that most domestication-related traits clustered in chromosomal blocks, and the positions of many of these clusters were consistent with those reported in previous studies and with skewed segregation ratios in these BC1,F7 RILs. For 13 (20.6%) of the QTLs identified in this study. the O. rufipogan -derived allele contributed a desirable agronomic effect despite the overall undesirable characteristics of the wild phenotype. Favourable alleles from O. rufipogan were detected for panicle length, spikelets per panicle, days to heading and leaf discoloration associated with cold stress. When compared with previous studies involving interspecific crosses, it can be concluded that O. rufipogon is useful as a source of valuable alleles for rice improvement and that many of the introgressed regions contain genes that have a favourable impact on phenotype in different genetic backgrounds and different environments.

    Notes: Improving grain yield and quality of ‘Tongil’-type rice (indica/japonica) continues to be a major breeding objective in Korea. In this study, genetic divergence among 13‘Tongil’-type rice cultivars was evaluated and the relationship between genetic distance and hybrid performance in all possible nonreciprocal crosses between them assessed. The 78 F1 hybrids together with the 13 parents were evaluated for eight traits of agronomic importance, including yield, in a replicated field trial. The 13 parents were examined for DNA polymorphism using 71 micro-satellite or simple sequence repeats and 46 random decamer oligonucleotide primers. A total of 319 polymorphic variants were generated and, based on the polymorphism data, genetic distances (GDs) ranged from 0.021 to 0.437. Cluster analysis based on GDs revealed associations among cultivars which was in agreement with the pedigree data. Heterosis was observed in hybrids for most of the traits, and yield exhibited the highest heterosis among the eight traits examined. The correlation values of GDs with F1 performance were mostly nonsignificant, except for yield, culm length and spikelets per panicle. The correlations of GDs with midparent and better-parent heterosis were not significant enough to be of predictive value. These results indicate that GDs based on the microsatellite and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers may not be useful for predicting heterotic combinations in ‘Tongil’-type rice and support the idea that the level of correlation between hybrid performance and genetic divergence is dependent on the germplasm used.

    Notes: Abstract As a result of earlier breeding efforts, portions of the genome of “Basmati 370” have been introgressed into a rice breeding line, B8462T3-710. Cooked-kernel elongation was increased in this breeding line to a level equal to that of “Basmati 370”. The objective of this study was to identify and locate quantitative trait loci (QTLs) associated with cooked-kernel elongation in an F3 population derived from a cross between B8462T3710 and the reduced-elongation recurrent parent variety, Dellmont. DNA from the parental lines and “Basmati 370” as a control, were screened for RFLPs using 170 clones chosen to cover the rice genome at intervals of 8 cM on average. Eighteen markers identified RFLPs common to Basmati 370 and B8462T3-710, but different from Dellmont, suggesting possible associations with kernel elongation. The B8462T3-710/Dellmont F3 population was analyzed for segregation of those RFLPs and for kernel elongation. Analysis of variance of the kernel elongation ratio revealed that two markers, 14.6 cM apart on chromosome 8, are significantly associated with this trait (RZ323 P ≤0.005, RZ562 P ≤0.05). Interval mapping suggests a single QTL with a close proximity to RZ323. This QTL was tested in F6 lines derived from the same cross and the presence of the B8462T3-710 segment detected by RZ323 caused a highly significant increase of the kernel elongation ratio (P ≤0.04). In addition, the QTL for kernel elongation and a gene for aroma, which are major components of the grain quality characteristics of Basmati-type rices, showed linkage. The availability of linked markers to the QTL may facilitate early selection for kernel elongation in rice breeding programs.

    Notes: Summary We report here the identification of a DNA marker closely linked to a gene for aroma in rice. The DNA marker was identified by testing 126 mapped rice genomic, cDNA, and oat cDNA, clones as hybridization probes against Southern blots, consisting of DNA from a pair of nearly isogenic lines (NILs) with or without the aroma gene. Chromosomal segments introgressed from the donor genome were distinguished by RFLPs between the NILs. Linkage association of the clone with the gene was verified using an F3 segregating for aroma. Cosegregation of the scented phenotype and donor-derived allele indicated the presence of linkage between the DNA marker and the gene. RFLP analysis showed that the gene is linked to a single-copy DNA clone, RG28, on chromosome 8, at a distance of 4.5 cM. The availability of a linked DNA marker may facilitate early selection for the aroma gene in rice breeding programs.
