Abstract:

In order to provide theoretical foundation of cultivating and improving rice, under North Carolina design II, we constructed test cross population and conducted pathway analysis of phenotype performance, combining ability and heterosis of agronomic trait in present study. The experiments’ results reveal that the filled grains per panicle, 1000-grain weight, main panicle length, primary/secondary branch of main panicle, plant height, spikelet per panicle, tillers per plant, and yield per plant were separately related to pathway of biological regulation, cysteine and methionine metabolism, snare interactions in vesicular transport, DNA-dependent transcription, macromolecular metabolism, recognition of pollen, hydrolase activity, purine nucleoside binding and so on. Therefore, in order to obtain elite hybrids with high combining ability and heterosis, it is feasible to start from studying related pathways of a certain trait and related genes regulating the pathway.

Key words: hybrid rice, GWAS, pathway analysis, combining ability, heterosis
