Observation under optical microscope manifested that this novel CMS belonged to typical abortion type with less pollen compared with wild abortive type cytoplasm (CMS-WA). Sequential planting showed that this novel CMS has complete and stable male sterility. Testcross experiment showed that all the 24 tested materials including maintainer and restorer lines of CMS-WA and Honglian type cytoplasm (CMS-HL) and other indica inbred varieties are the maintainers with complete maintaining ability, suggesting that this novel CMS has fertility restoration totally different from CMS-WA and CMS-HL and belongs to a novel type of CMS. So far, we only discovered a unique fertility restoration source for this novel CMS. Inheritance analysis showed that the fertility restoration of this CMS was governed by three pairs of independent dominant genes. Prospect for application of this novel CMS system in hybrid rice breeding was also discussed.展开更多

Two types of CMS have been discovered from Dongxiang wild rice, namely the wild abortion type CMS (CMS-WA) and the Dongxiang wild type CMS (CMS-DW). In this study, we show the molecular identification of the two types of CMS in Dongxiang wild rice. WA352, which conferred CMS-WA, was not detected in Dongxiang wild iice, implying Dongxiang wild rice does not carry the CMS- WA source. Further analysis of WA352 in DYIA, a CMS-DW line, by PCR amplification and sequencing, revealed two insertion-deletion polymorphisms occurred in CMS-DW compared to WA352 of CMS-WA. It was reported that WA352 was comprised of an unknown origin sequence and partial sequences of three open reading frames (ORFs), orf284, orf224 and orf288. The 42-bp insertion was located between the two segments of orf224 and orf288, which created a new chimeric ORF, orf216. This new ORF was also detected in CMS-HL. Based on the 9-bp deletion in orf284, a specific mitochon- drial marker of DW-M1 was developed, which could be used to specifically distinguish the DW-type source. Moreover, semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis preliminarily suggested that both orf216 and orf284 could be considered as candidates for CMS-DW. These findings present a preliminary understanding of CMS-DW at the molecular level.展开更多
