Outline of Final Research Achievements

Effects of TAWAWA1 and APO1 genes, that increase the number of spikelets per panicle (SN), on yield and yield components were investigated. Although these genes increased SN and the total number of spikelets per area, they did not increased yield due to the decrease of the percentage of ripened grain and/or thousand grain weight. TAWAWA1 gene increased SN and did not change the number of panicles per area, stem diameter and leaf blade width. APO1 gene increased all these traits. These results suggest that TAWAWA1 gene acts from the reproductive stage and APO1 gene acts from the vegetative stage.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

本研究の結果、TAWAWA1遺伝子およびAPO1遺伝子を導入しても、収量は増加しなかったので、これらの遺伝子を用いて、短期的に多収性品種を育成することは難しいと判断される。一方、両遺伝子の間で、収量形成過程に及ぼす影響が異なることを明らかとしたことは、今後、様々なタイプの1穂籾数を多くする遺伝子、およびその働きを研究することによって、長期的には多収品種が育成できる可能性を示唆するものである。
