Genetic and Molecular Bases of Rice Yield

Abstract: Grain yield in rice is a complex trait multiplicatively determined by its three component traits: number of panicles, number of grains per panicle, and grain weight; all of which are typical quantitative traits. The developments in genome mapping, sequencing, and functional genomic research have provided powerful tools for investigating the genetic and molecular bases of these quantitative traits. Dissection of the genetic bases of the yield traits based on molecular marker linkage maps resolved hundreds of qu… Show more

“…Additionally, an important cause of rice yield reduction is defective panicle development (Xing and Zhang, 2010). Understanding the mechanism of panicle development should be helpful to mitigate the crop yield reduction caused by defective panicle development.…”

“…Grain weight, which is normally characterized by weight of thousand seeds, is one of the major components determining grain yield in rice (Xing and Zhang 2010), besides another component including number of panicles per plant and number of grains per panicle. It could give information about the density and size of the rice grains.…”

“…In rice, yield per plant is determined by three component traits: number of panicles (tillers) per plant, number of grains per panicle, and grain weight. Extensive genome mapping studies have identified hundreds of QTLs (quantitative trait loci) for yield traits (9). Although a number of QTLs for tillering (10), grain number (11,12), grain size (8,(13)(14)(15), and panicle size and plant architecture (16)(17)(18) have been cloned, molecular characterization of these and many more genes is needed to understand the genetic and molecular bases of yield (9).…”
