Research Abstract |
In this project, we carried on a coordinate research by using both of the molecular and conventional genetic approaches. In the cytoplasmic male sterility of sugar beets, we confirmed that the mitochondrial (mt) DNAs consisted of several size classes of circular molecules and N (normal) and S (male sterile) cytoplasms differ in the number and size of small circular DNAs between 0.28um and 0.6um. Variation of high molecular weight DNA also enabled us to detect the polymorphism of mtDNAs. Further we demonstrated that the classification of male sterile cytoplasms are in general agreement with those based upon the conventional analysis of fertility restoring genes in test crosses. Nuclear-cytoplasmic interation was prominent in N-C hybrids of wheat having the cytoplasm derived from Aegilops ovata. Cytoplasmic variability increase in the several physiological traits such as growth habit, photoperiodic response, vegetative period and cold tolerance. In vitro selection was applied to isolate the variants exhibiting specific resistance or tolerance to several herbicides and sodium chloride. The repeated selections under the stressed condition by using rice seed calli were effective in raising the degree of tolerance at the cellular level. However, it is needed to confirm the stable genetic change at the plant level. We also studied the gene action and chromosomal location of genetical markers such as isozymes and plant types for the use of breeding and physiological studies of morphogenesis.
