Residual heterogeneity in IR64 was identified on the short arm of chromosome 2 involving at least 5 SSR loci spanning nearly 30 cM. The SSR variations originated from the parental lines of IR64 (IR5657-33-2 / IR2061-465-1-5-5) and were segregating in the selfed bulk seed stock in a Mendelian manner for more than 20 years. This study verified that the within cultivar variations of SSR in a morphologically uniform variety IR64 of a selfing crop came from its parental lines, which has immediate and commercial applications including test of hybrid seed purity, varietal fingerprinting, and curation and propagation of germplasm collections.展开更多
