To enhance rice yield and diversify grain quality of Korean japonica rice, we developed japonica rice line with long and spindle-shaped grain. Korean japonica rice cultivars have narrow genetic background of grain size and shape. Most of cultivars show medium-short and semi-round grain. To diversify the genetic background for grain, we developed Jeonju625, japonica rice line with long and spindle-shaped grain, derived from a cross between DSG79, the breeding material with extra-long and spindle-shaped grain, and Boramchan, japonica super high-yielding cultivar with medium-short and semi-round grain. Jeonju625 had GW2gs3qSW5+qGL3 allele type for grain-related genes, which conferred extra-long and spindle-shaped grain. The grain length and ratio of length to width of brown rice of Jeonju625 was 7.06 mm and 2.72, respectively. Jeonju625 was improved the deteriorated traits of DGS79, very late heading, long culm, long awn, droopy flag leaves, and susceptibility to lodging, by strong selection pressure focused on field breeding. The milled rice yield of Jeonju625 was 559 kg/10a, which was similar level of Boramchan (552 kg/10a) and 29% enhanced yield compared to DSG79. Jeonju625 had suitable characteristics for cooked rice. Jeongju625 showed lower protein contents and better glossiness and palatability of cooked rice than Boramchan and Hanareum2. Elite japonica rice line, Jeonju625, with extra-long and spindle-shaped grain showed good characteristics for rice yield and grain quality. Jeonju625 could be utilized practical cultivar and breeding material for enhancing rice yield and diversifying grain quality.
To diversify the grain size and shape of japonica rice, we developed the Breeding Materials with Diverse Grain Size and Shape (BM_DGS) and characterized the grain and yield-related traits. We used the donor parents Jizi1560 and Jizi1581, japonica germplasm with extremely large grain size. Four cross combinations between the each donor parents and Korean high yielding japonica rice cultivars, Deuraechan and Boramchan, were constructed and anther culture method was applied. Among 290 doubled haploid lines, we selected 91 elite lines with diverse grain size and shape and designated to the BM_DGS. The grain size and shape of BM_DGS exhibited beyond the characteristics of previously developed Korean rice cultivars. The alleles of major grain-related genes, GW2, GS3, and qSW5, in BM_DGS showed two types, wild type or loss-of-function mutant type. The loss-of-function mutant alleles, gw2, gs3, and qsw5, had an effect on increasing grain size. The phenotypic variation of grain length was mostly controlled by GS3 alleles, and grain width and thickness were influenced by the combinations of GW2 and qSW5 alleles. 1,000-grain weight was determined by the combinations of GW2, GS3, and qSW5. The grain-related genes influenced the phenotypic variation of yield-related traits. The result of this study could be useful to elucidate the relationship between the grain-related genes and agronomic traits. And the BM_DGS are being utilized in the breeding programs to diversify the grain size and shape in japonica rice.
This study was conducted to develop the early maturing rice lines with genes conferring resistance to bacterial blight and rice stripe virus to enhance the adaptability in plain area. Unkwang carrying Xa3 was used as a recurrent parent and SR30075 carrying Xa4+xa5+Xa21+Stvb-i was used as a donor parent. RL1(Resistant Line, BC1F7), RL2, RL3, RL4, and RL5(BC2F6) were bred through bio-assay of K3a race inoculation and phenotypic selection of agronomic traits. The presence of introduced genes was confirmed by testing the resistance levels against bacterial blight and rice stripe virus and then double-checked by using DNA marker. RL1 has all target genes, Xa3+xa5+Xa21+Stvb-i. RL2, RL3, and RL5 have Xa3+Xa21+Stvb-i whereas RL4 has only Xa21. Rice lines carrying Stvb-i showed resistance reaction to rice stripe virus. The combinations of bacterial blight resistant genes(Xa3+xa5+Xa21 and Xa3+Xa21) were found to be promising, as the rice lines carrying these genes enhanced a strong resistant reaction against 16 bacterial blight isolates. Also, the inoculation of K3a race did not alter the brown rice yield, ripened grain ratio and kernel quality of brown rice compared to control. Although RL1 containing all the target resistance genes showed excellent resistance performance, it is not suitable to cultivate in plain area due to instability to lodging, 80% yield level than Unkwang, and low grain quality. RL5 backcrossed twice with Unkwang was found to be a promising line due to its effective resistance gene combination, Xa3+Xa21+Stvb-i and good agronomic traits such as stability to lodging, higher yield and quality compared to Unkwang.
This study was conducted to know the effect of low radiation during grain filling stage of rice on its grain yield, components, physicochemical properties and palatability, compared to the effect of natural light. Ripened grain ratio, 1000 grain weight of brown rice, milled rice yield of Mipum, Hopum, and Sindongjin were reduced as the shading treatments become higher. After harvest, physicochemical properties of rice influencing eating quality were investigated. Protein content of milled rice was increased, but palatability was decreased by shading treatments. Change of milled rice proteins and palatability due to shading treatments were found to be less in Mipum than that in Hopum and Sindongjin. With regard to amylogram properties, shading treatments resulted in a significant decrease in peak ․ trough ․ final ․ breakdown viscosities of rice flour, though it increased pasting temperature and setback viscosity. The degree of the 55% shading effect was more intensive than the 35% shading effect in changes of ripened grain ratio, 1000 grain weight of brown rice, milled rice yield and milled rice protein.
This study was conducted to develop breeding lines carrying bacterial blight resistance genes, Xa2, Xa3, xa5, and Xa21 for enhancing the resistance of early maturing glutinous japonica rice. Resistant lines were developed by backcrossing into early maturing glutinous elite cultivar, Sangjuchalbyeo and phenotypic selection for bacterial blight resistance and agronomic traits. Selected lines were confirmed the incorporation of the resistance genes using DNA markers and evaluated the resistance reaction against four Korean and eleven Philippine bacterial bight races. HR24465 line carrying Xa2 was resistant to Korean races K1, K2, and Philippine race 9a. HR24666 line carrying Xa3 was moderately resistant or resistant to races except for Korean race K3a and Philippine race 6. Resistant lines carrying xa5 were resistant to all races except for Philippine race 6. HR24669 line carrying Xa21 was moderately resistant or resistant to races except for Korean race K1 and Philippine race 10. Yield-related traits of breeding lines exhibited similar characteristics to Sangjuchalbyeo. These resistant lines could be useful breeding materials for improving the resistance of early maturing glutinous japonica rice against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae.
