Identification of Phenotypic Variation and Genetic Diversity in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Mutants

Abstract: Abstract:In this study, phenotypic variation and genetic diversity, important factors to decide germplasm for rice breeding, were evaluated among 15 rice mutants attained from the MNU (N-Nitroso-N-methylurea) mutation. The correlation coefficient values among these phenotypic characteristics were calculated. The results showed that full grain number per plant was the most relevant factor contributing to grain yield per plant, and grain length to width ratio was the key parameter affected to amylose content.

“…Several sources of genetic variation are available to complement the genetic paucity of modern elite cultivars. Genetic diversity generated artificially through mutagenesis has proven a valuable resource for various crop species, as variants can be directly produced in commercial germplasm (Caldwell et al ., ; Mba, ; Nikam et al ., ; Gulfishan et al ., ; Çelik and Atak, ; Pando and Deza, ; Wang et al ., ; Tu Anh et al ., ). However, given that salt tolerance is most likely to arise from the concerted effects of numerous mechanisms, the potential to artificially create salt tolerant variants is surely limited.…”

“…The fertilizers, weeding, water, and pesticides were provided by conditional methods in Japan. The F 1 population, derived from TBR 1 (female) x KD 18 (male) crossing, was treated with the MNU mutation, as described previously by Anh et al [24] with some slight modifications. The heterozygosity of the F 1 generation was identified by SSR markers, then these F1 seeds were further soaked in 150 nM MNU for 3 hours, dried, and kept in the dark for 3 months in a hermetic condition before being stored at 4 • C. The mutated F 1 (M 1 ) (200 seeds) was self-pollinated to yield the mutated F 2 (M 2 ) population and was grown in 2016 (May-September, wet season).…”

“…The 1000 seed weight was calculated in grams. Grain quality traits, including amylose, protein, and lipid contents, were measured by a PGC Shizuoka Seiki PS-500 (version 2-12, Shizuoka Seiki Co. Ltd.; Shizuoka, Japan) [24].…”
