Genetic Analysis of Novel Fertility Restoration Genes (qRf3 and qRf6) in Dongxiang Wild Rice Using GradedPool-Seq Mapping and QTL-Seq Correlation Analysis.

ABSTRACT: The improvement of grain yield, quality, and resistance can be achieved through the utilization of heterosis. The combination of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) and fertility restoration (Rf) gene(s) greatly facilitates the commercial development of three-line hybrid rice based on heterosis. The basis for investigating the relationship between CMS and Rf genes lies in the rapid localization of wild rice fertility restoration genes. A set of the BC₄F₅ population derived from interspecific crosses between Xieqingzao B (XB) and the BC₁F₉ XB//Dongxiang wild rice (DWR)/XB line L5339 was used to detect quantitative trait loci (QTL) for fertility restoration. The population was then crossed with two male sterile lines, Zhong9A (Z9A) and D
