[Method] A dwarf mutant (Xiaoxiang'ai) was used as test material for morphological observation. Xiaoxiang'ai was used as female parent and semi-dwarf material Xiangzao143 was used as male parent to construct populations for genetic analysis. Gene mapping was conducted by using micro- satellite markers. [Result] The average height of Xiaoxiang'ai was 55 cm; genetic analysis results showed that plant height of F1 individuals was similar with the male parent, while semi-dwarf plants and dwarf plants were observed in F2 populations and the segregation ratio was nearly 3:1, indicating that plant height trait of Xiaoxi- ang'ai is mainly controlled by one pair of recessive gene located on rice chromo- some 5 and in the upstream of RM249, with a genetic distance of 8.4 cM. [Conclu- sion] rRH is a new dwarf gene in rice.展开更多
