Abstract:

A yellow-green leaf rice mutant, temporarily named as ygl8951 (yellow-green leaf 8951), was identified from 60Co γ-ray radiation mutation in japonica rice varietyNipponbare. The mutant showed albino phenotype from germination to 3-leaf-stage, then turned yellow-green phenotype till apoptosis. The contents of chlorophyll and carotenoid were obviously decreased in ygl8951 compared with the wild type. Electron microscope observation showed that no grana thylakoids but some stroma thylakoids-like structures were found in chloroplast of ygl8951 mutant. The expression levels of some genes involved in photosystem Iand photosystem II were dramatically decreased, while the ribosomal and RNA polymerase genes in chloroplast were increased in ygl8951 mutant compared with the wild type. Mapping-based cloning was used to identify the ygl8951 locus using an F2 population from a crossing between the mutant and Huanghuazhan. The result showed that the mutated locus was located in a 191 kb region on chromosome 6, which was assumed to be a new gene controlling leaf color.
