Abstract:

Leaf morphology is an important component of ideal plant architecture in rice. Therefore, identification of genes associated with leaf morphologic traits is helpful to shape rice ideal architecture and reach the aim of super high-yield. A set of chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) derived from Guanglu’ai 4 (recipient) and Nipponbare (donor) were employed to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) for the length and width of top three leaves (flag leaf, the second and third leaf from top). We also examined the correlation between the leaf traits and grain yield per plant, indicating that except for flag leaf width, other leaf traits were significantly and positively correlated with grain yield per plant. One-way ANOVA and Dunnett’s test were used to detect QTL related to size of rice top three leaves. Thirteen and seven QTL, for leaf length and width, respectively, were identified. Among them, eight and four QTL had positive effects, respectively. Identification of these QTL provides useful information for improving rice leaf morphologic traits.
