Abstract: Rice production is limited by many environmental factors, of which drought and salinity are the most important abiotic stresses which greatly constrain yield and planting area of rice. Development of drought and salinity tolerant (DT, ST) varieties is a most effective method to solve this problem. Using BC3F5 introgression populations derived from a elite indica variety Fengaizhan 1 (FAZ1) as the recurrent parent and indica varieties Guanghui 122, Bg 94-1, and japonica varieties Yuanjing 7 and Shennong 89366 as donor parents, two high yield (HY) lines with DT, FAZ1/Guanghui 122 and FAZ1/Yuanjing 7, and two HY lines with ST, FAZ1/Shennong 89366 and FAZ1/Bg94-1, were selected and used for the pyramiding of HY and DT or ST. As compared with the pyramiding parents, DT, ST and HY lines were selected from the two pyramiding F2 populations, getting 30–42 extreme DT, ST and HY individuals with selection intensity of 8.3%–11.7%, respectively. Under the irrigation condition, the selected populations with three target-trait all showed obvious segregations of yield-related traits including heading date, reproductive panicle number per plant, spikelet number per panicle, filled grain number per panicle, seed setting rate and 1000-grain weight. Direction of variation varied with the selected populations and the related traits. Among the six selected populations, the reproductive panicle number per plant and filled grain number per panicle had greatest contributions to yield with an average of 18.5% and a range of 12.9%–27.4% for the former an average of 13.1% and a range of 9.0%–21.2% for the latter. After intercross screening, around 10.0%–36.7% of ST lines were selected from the DT-selected populations of the two pyramiding crosses with an equivalent resistance levels as those ST-selected populations on the average, indicating that some genetic overlapping exists between DT and ST. The strategy of first screening against DT or ST then HY and further pyramiding of these three target traits from different donors is recommended for rice breeding for high yield with DT and ST.
