【Short Report】Identification of Chromosome Regions Affecting Leaf Area with Rice Chromosome Segment Substitution Lines
The aim of this study was to obtain the information for improvement in source ability via expansion of a flag leaf area in rice (Oryza sativa L.). We identified chromosome regions affecting a trait (CRATs) for leaf area and confirmed their effects with two sets of chromosome segment substitution lin...

description | The aim of this study was to obtain the information for improvement in source ability via expansion of a flag leaf area in rice (Oryza sativa L.). We identified chromosome regions affecting a trait (CRATs) for leaf area and confirmed their effects with two sets of chromosome segment substitution lines developed from indica landraces Kasalath or Nona Bokra as a donor under japonica cultivar Koshihikari genetic background. We detected 4 and 8 CRATs that increased leaf area by Kasalath and Nona Bokra alleles, respectively. With the Nona Bokra allele, CRAT on chromosome 7 (LA7) increased leaf area by 54% comparing to Koshihikari. LA7 maintained the contents of Rubisco and photosynthetic rate and as a result its “estimated” source ability of a flag leaf was increased by 23%. The effect of LA7 was stable under different environmental conditions, and might be useful for breeding rice with higher source ability and yield. |
