In the present study, our genetic analysis confirmed that mutant characteristics including dwarfing, profuse tlllerlng, thin stems and small panicles are all controlled by the dominant D-53 gene. We measured the length of each Internode of KL908, a D-53-carrylng line, and classified the dwarfism of KL908 Into the dn-type. In addition, we measured elongation of the second sheath and a-amylase activity In the endosperm, and we characterized KL908 as a dwarf mutant that was neither glbberelllc acid-deficient nor glbberelllc acid-Insensitive. Using a large F2 population obtained by crossing KL908 with a wild-type variety, NJ6, the D-53 gene was mapped to the terminal region of the short arm of chromosome 11, with one simple sequence repeat marker, Ds3, co-segregating, and the other, K81114, located 0.6 cM away.展开更多
