Identification of QTLs responsible for culturability, and fine-mapping of QTL qCBT9 related to callus browning derived from Dongxiang common wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.).

ABSTRACT: Compared to japonica, the lower genetic transformation efficiency of indica is a technical bottleneck for rice molecular breeding. Specifically, callus browning frequently occurs during the culture of the elite indica variety 93-11, leading to poor culturability and lower genetic transformation efficiency. Here, 67 QTLs related to culturability were detected using 97 introgression lines (designated as 9DILs) derived from Dongxiang common wild rice (DXCWR, Oryza rufipogon Griff.) with 93-11 genetic background, explaining 4% ~12% of the phenotypic variations. The QTL qCBT9 on chromosome 9 was a primary QTL for reducing callus browning derived from DXCWR. Five 9DILs with light callus browning and high differentiation were screened. We evaluated the callus br
