One complete asynaptic mutant, MM-19, and two partial ones, MM-4 and MM-16, of Oryza sativa L. induced by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) were cytogenetically investigated. No chromosome pairing occurred from zygotene to pachytene and 24 univalents appeared at diakinesis and metaphase 1 in MM-19. On the other hand, a partial lack of chromosome pairing was observed from zygotene to pachytene and various numbers of univalents occurred at metaphase I in MM-4 and MM-16. The mean chiasma frequency per bivalent as well as per cell decreased to different extents in MM-4 and MM-16, and the correlation between both the amount of chromosome pairing from zygotene to pachytene and the chiasma frequency per cell at diakinesis was recognized. Judging from the development of anthers in each meiotic stage, the duration of the stage forming the synizetic knot, at which chromosome pairing took place, was longer in MM-4 and MM-16 than in the normal plant, and was in MM-19 almost as long as in the normal plant. The results of gene analyses indicate that each of the three asynaptic mutants is controlled by a recessive gene and that, at least for MM-4 and MM-16, these genes are located at different loci.Key words: asynaptic, rice, Oryza, chiasma frequency, synizesis.

ABSTRACT The recombination frequency as influenced by five independent recessive ds genes was measured on three segments of different chromosomes of rice, Oryza sativa L. Each ds gene in the homozygous condition resulted in an almost equally reduced recombination frequency in the three segments. When the mean reduction in recombination frequency was related to the reduction of chiasma frequency, the five ds genes were divided into two types: in one type the reduction of chiasma frequency almost corresponded to the mean reduction of recombination frequency, and in the other the chiasma frequency was greatly reduced in comparison with the mean reduction of recombination frequency. Three of the five ds genes were found to belong to the former group. In both types, normal synaptonemal complexes were observed in pachytene cells homozygous for ds genes. This finding suggests that ds genes do not affect the formation of synaptonemal complexes which are regarded as the prerequisite structure for crossing over.

SUMMARYDistribution of red cell potassium in buffaloes and its possible genetic control was investigated. The mean values of red cell K+ varied between 37 and 41 m-equiv/l in LK type animals and between 87 and 91 m-equiv/l in the HK type. Red cell K+ concentration within individual animals of either LK or HK type was fairly stable over successive samplings, whereas the same values among animals within a type varied rather widely. The inheritance of red cell K+ type in buffaloes appeared to be controlled by a single pair of genes. HK animals were homozygous for the recessive allele while LK animals represented the heterozygotes and also the homozygotes for the other allele. In addition, there was indication that the gene responsible for LK phenotypes might not be completely dominant over the recessive allele. The three populations of buffaloes examined were found to be in genetic equilibrium in respect of red cell K+ polymorphism. HK animals predominated in both the breeds, the frequency of the recessive gene (h) being 0·78 and 0·74 for the Murrah and Bhadawari breeds respectively.

Experiments were carried out to assess some insecticide modules against major insect pests of rice. Each module consists of a basal application of carbofuran 3G @ 1 kg a.i ha-1 at 20 DAT and Rynaxypyr 20 SC @ 30 g a.i ha-1 at 45 DAT except untreated control. All modules differ with each other only in third treatment which was applied in 65 DAT. The third treatment includes: Imidacloprid 17.8 SL @ 27 g a.i ha-1, Pymetrozine 50 WG @ 150 g a.i ha-1, Triflumezopyrim 106 SC @ 27 g a.i ha-1, Buprofezin 25 SC @ 250 g a.i ha-1; Glamore (Imidacloprid 40+Ethiprole 40% w/w) 80 WG @ 100 g a.i. ha-1, Thiacloprid 24 SC @ 60 g a.i ha-1, Azadirachtin 0.03 EC @ 8 g a.i ha-1, Dinotefuran 20 SG@ 40 g a.i ha-1 and untreated control. All the treated plots recorded significantly lower percent of dead heart, white ear- head caused by stem borer and silver shoot caused by gall midge. Module with Pymetrozine 50 WG @ 150 g a.i ha-1 treated plot recorded significantly higher per cent reduction of plant hoppers (>80% over untreated control) and produced higher grain yield (50.75 qha-1) than the other modules. Among the different treated modules the maximum number of spiders was found in Azadirachtin 0.03 EC @ 8 g a.i ha-1 treated module plot followed by other treatments.

Inheritance of fertility restoration was studied in crosses involving ten elite restorer lines of rice viz. BR6839-41-5-1R, BR7013-62-1-1R, BR7011-37-1-2R, BR10R, BR11R, BR12R, BR13R, BR14R, BR15R and BR16R and one male sterile line Jin23A with WA sources of cytoplasmic male sterility. The segregation pattern for pollen fertility of F2 and BC1 populations of crosses involving Jin23A indicated the presence of two independent dominant fertility restoring genes. The mode of action of the two genes varied in different crosses revealing three types of interaction, i.e. epistasis with dominant gene action, epistasis with recessive gene action, and epistasis with incomplete dominance.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjpbg.v24i1.16997

To elucidate the comparative effect of chloride and sulfate salinities on photosynthesis and yield components in rice, plants of Oryza sativa (cv. I Kong Pao (salt-sensitive)) were exposed in nutrient solutions to 20 mM Na2SO4 or 40 mM NaCl (electrical conductivity of c.a. 4.30 dS m−1 for both solutions) from seedlings to maturity stage. Both types of salt induced a strong decrease in net photosynthesis (AN) at the seedling and tillering stages, while the intercellular CO2 concentrations (Ci) remained unaffected. Instantaneous transpiration (E) and stomatal conductance (gs) decreased at the tillering and seedling stages, respectively, only in plants exposed to NaCl. Chloride salinity also strongly decreased photosynthetic pigments, while no impact was detected in response to Na2SO4. All yield-related parameters were affected by salinities, but NaCl was significantly more deleterious than Na2SO4 for the mean number of tillers produced per plant, spikelets sterility and non-viable pollen percentage. In contrast, both types of salinity similarly impacted the percentage of fertile tillers and 1000-grain weight. At the grain level, more than 90% of toxic ions (Na+, excess of Cl− and S6+) accumulated in the hulls, thus preserving the internal part of the caryopses from toxic ion injuries.

Meiotic Chromosome Pairing

Meiotic chromosome pairing was examined in F1 hybrid regenerants from Oryza sativa (AA) × O. latifolia (CCDD) and O. glumaepatula (AcuAcu) × O. latifolia (CCDD) crosses produced through embryo culture. The average number of chromosome pairs in the O. sativa × O. latifolia regenerants ranged from 13.79 to 14.79. Ten to 18 bivalents were observed per cell. The average number of bivalents in the O. glumaepatula × O. latifolia regenerants ranged from 12.44 to 13.87, with 10–17 bivalents per cell. Some desynapsis occurred but 10 to 12 true bivalents remained at late metaphase in most cells. The high number of bivalents observed in the hybrids from these divergent parents indicates that a genetic system for pairing control similar to that in Triticum may be present in the Oryza genus.Key words: Oryza, embryo culture, meiosis.

Salt-tolerant mutants are valuable resources for basic and applied research on plant salt tolerance. Here, we report the isolation and characterisation of a salt-tolerant rice (Oryza sativa L.) mutant. This mutant was identified from an ethyl methanesulfonate-induced Nipponbare mutant library, designated as rice salt tolerant 1 (rst1). The rst1 mutant was tolerant to salt stress and showed significantly higher shoot biomass and chlorophyll content, but lower lipid peroxidation and electrolyte leakage under NaCl stress. The improved salt tolerance of this mutant may be due mainly to its enhanced ability to restrict Na+ accumulation in shoots under salt stress conditions. Genetic analysis indicated that the salt tolerance of the rst1 mutant was controlled by a single recessive gene. Quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping for salt tolerance was performed using an F2 population of rst1 × Peiai 64. Two QTLs were detected, in which the locus on chromosome 6 was determined to be the candidate locus of the rst1 gene. The rst1 locus was subsequently shown to reside within a 270.4-kb region defined by the markers IM29432 and IM29702. This result will be useful for map-based cloning of the rst1 gene and for marker-assisted breeding for salt tolerance in rice.

The research aimed to study effect the application of river sand (RS), coconut coir (CC), and banana coir (BC) on growth and yield of rice (Oryza sativa L.) in Ustic Endoaquert. The research was carried out in a green house using 3 × 3 × 3 factorial design. The RS factor consists of three treatment levels which were 0% RS, 25% RS, and 50% RS. Meanwhile, the CC and BC consist of three treatment levels, where each level were 0 Mg ha-1, 10 Mg ha-1 and 20 Mg ha-1. The results showed that RS, CC and BC applications did not have significant effect on plant height. On the other hand, all ameliorant applications had significantly increase leaf length and the highest percentage increasing was in BC (13.49%). The leaf numbers and tiller numbers had relatively similar pattern, except BC that had significantly increased leaf numbers by 77.69% and amount of tiller numbers by 49.45%. Furthermore, for yield components, RS, CC and BC applications had significant increased panicle numbers by 37.76%. It was only RS and BC that increased panicle lenght and the best increasing of 26.82% on RS. Meanwhile, the BC application only increased the rice grain numbers.[How to Cite: Nurdin and F Zakaria. 2013.
