Significant variations were obtained among the component lines for most of the floral traits. BRRI9A exhibited superiority for angle of open florets, stigma length and breadth, anther breadth, filament length, style length and panicle exertion rate while its corresponding maintainer lines BRRI9B showed superiority for duration of open florets, stigma length and breadth, anther breadth and filament length. This indicated BRRI9A and its corresponding maintainer line BRRI9B possessed very good floral traits that influence out crossing. Among the restorer lines BR168R showed superiority for duration of open florets, angle of open florets, duration of bloomed florets/panicle, stigma length, anther length and number of pollen/microscopic focus. This suggested BR168R could be used as promising restorer line with BRRI9A for hybrid seed production in local condition.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjb.v43i1.19739 Bangladesh J.

Component lines (A and R lines) of BRRI hybrid dhan2 were assessed under treatment of GA3 application and row ratio on days to 5% and 50% flowering, duration of opening of floret, angle of open floret, filament length, anther length, stigma length, panicle exsertion rate, stigma exsertion rate and outcrossing rate. The CMS line viz; BRRI 10A have been found to be usable female parents for hybrid rice seed production due to their stigma length, stigma exsertion rate, duration of blooming, anther length and filament length. The different between genotypic and phenotypic variation was not remarkable for most of the characters studied indicating negligible environmental influence on the traits. The maximum duration of opening of floret (158.10 min) and angle of floret opening (28.870) were obtained with the application of 350 g GA3 ha-1. The improvement in the floral traits with increased GA3 level might be due to increased availability of GA3 which enhanced floral traits. The CMS line can be used as potential female parent in hybrid rice seed production of BRRI hybrid dhan2. Bangladesh J. Agril.

An experiment was conducted at Bangladesh Rice Research Institute (BRRI), Gazipur during T.Aman season of 2007 with a view to evaluating seven maintainer and 30 restorer lines for yield and yield contributing characters for selecting promising maintainer and restorer lines for developing rice hybrids in our local environment. Significant variations were noticed among the parental lines for all the characters studied. The CMS lines Gan46A and BRRI9A could be used as female parents in hybrid seed production due to good yield and yield contributing characters recorded in their corresponding maintainer lines. Restorer line BR168R could offer high yield potentiality in heterosis breeding due to its superior yield contributing characters in local environment.

The outcrossing traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.) affect the yield of hybrid seed production. Using a cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) line with good outcrossing traits, such as short flag leaf length (FLL), narrow flag leaf width (FLW), wide flag leaf angle (FLA), and elongated panicle neck length (PNL), for hybrid rice seed production, it is possible to avoid the procedure of cutting flag leaves and make the supplementary pollination feasible by machine. In this study, a japonica restorer C-bao as the receptor parent and a primitive japonica accession Ludao as the donor parent were used to construct a chromosome segment substitution line (CSSL) population. The CSSL population was used to detect quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for the four outcrossing traits using a likelihood ratio test based on the stepwise regression (RSTEP-LRT) method. The CSSL population constructed consisted of 163 lines covering 90.7% of the donor genome. Among the seven QTLs detected in the CSSL population, four QTLs were detected in both years. qFLL-4 explained 6.70% of the two-year-averaged phenotypic variance, and the alleles from Ludao decreased FLL 5.1 cm. qFLA-1.1 and qFLA-1.2 explained 7.85% and 21.29% of the 2-year-averaged phenotypic variance respectively, and the alleles from Ludao increased FLA 17.38° and 31.50°. qPNL-8 explained 8.87% of the 2-year-averaged phenotypic variance, and the alleles from Ludao increased PNL 4.44 cm. These favorable alleles identified could be used to improve the outcrossing traits of parents for hybrid rice seed production in rice.

Abstract Key message SYL3-k allele increases the outcrossing rate of male sterile line and the yield of hybrid F1 seeds via enhancement of endogenous GA4 content in Oryza sativa L. pistils. The change in style length might be an adaptation of rice cultivation from south to north in the northern hemisphere. Abstract The style length (SYL) in rice is one of the major factors influencing the stigma exertion, which affects the outcross rate of male sterile line and the yield of hybrid F1 seeds. However, the biological mechanisms underlying SYL elongation remain elusive. Here, we report a map-based cloning and characterisation of the allele qSYL3-k. The qSYL3-k allele encodes a MADS-box family transcription factor, and it is expressed in various rice organs. The qSYL3-k allele increases SYL via the elongation of cell length in the style, which is associated with a higher GA4 content in the pistil. The expression level of OsGA3ox2 in pistils with qSYL3-k alleles is significantly higher than that in pistils with qSYL3-n allele on the same genome background of Nipponbare. The yield of F1 seeds harvested from plants with 7001SSYL3−k alleles was 16% higher than that from plants with 7001SSYL3−n allele. The sequence data at the qSYL3 locus in 136 accessions showed that alleles containing the haplotypes qSYL3AA, qSYL3AG, and qSYL3GA increased SYL, whereas those containing the haplotype qSYL3GG decreased it. The frequency of the haplotype qSYL3GG increases gradually from the south to north in the northern hemisphere. These findings will facilitate improvement in SYL and yield of F1 seeds henceforward.
