摘要
The genetic dissection of morphological traits can helpful to evaluate their potential values as markers for rice genetic improvement. In this study, a RI population derived from a cross from Zhenshan97 and IRAT109 was used to dissect the genetic bases of seven morphological traits such as leaf sheath color (LSC), grain apiculus color (GAC), grain hairiness density (GHD), grain awn length (GAL), ratio of leaf length to width (RLW), leaf erectness (LER) and natural leaf rolling status (NLR). Totally, 26 main-effect QTLs and 22 epistatic QTLs were detected. Of them, 11 main-effect and 3 epistatic QTLs expressed environmental interactions. GAC controlled by a single gene could be regarded as the most useful marker. LSC controlled by two major interacted main-effect QTLs, but with no environmental interaction, is suitable to become morphological marker. LSC will be a very efficient morphological marker for identification of hybrid plants at rice seedling stage when the two major QTLs are introduced into male sterile line and restorer line separately. GHD controlled by a major QTL and a few minor QTLs with comparative low QEIs could also be used as marker. The traits GAL, NLR, RLW and LER, which were controlled by a number of minor effect QTLs and affected by environmental conditions could not be used as marker. But the QTLs with large effects, such as nrl8, can be targeted for corresponding trait improvement through marker-aided selection in rice breeding.
