| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The effects of elevated-CO2 concentration(E-[CO2]) were smaller with cultivars that are tolerant to heat for better appearance quality (Usui et al., 2014), suggesting heat tolerance can also be effective for improving grain appearance quality of rice.We hypothesized that accumulation of QTLs for heat tolerance, which is qWB3 and qWB6, could be effective under E-[CO2]. To examine their performance under E-[CO2], we conducted Free-Air CO2 Enrichment (FACE) experiments.
When averaged over ambient-[CO2](A-[CO2]) and E-[CO2] treatments for two years, undamaged grain(UDG) rate of near isogenic line (NIL), which incorpolated 2 QTLs, was better than heat susceptible cultivar. This suggests that accumulation of heat-tolerant QTLs is effective to reduce the negative effects of E-[CO2] on grain appearance quality. However, it was needed to improve more tolerant in further study because the UDG rate of this NIL in E-[CO2] was almost equivalent to those of heat susceptible cultivar in an A-[CO2].
