Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to identify fertility restoring genes (RFs) for cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) in tomato. First, we constructed a highly accurate genome sequence of two fertility restoration lines. The major loci contributing to fertility restoration were identified and DNA markers were developed. We also found that the RF genes from Solanum pimpinellifolium and S.l.cerasiforme are loci for the same locus.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
RF遺伝子の座乗領域を特定でき、稔性回復と強度に連鎖するDNAマーカーの開発に至った。この結果、迅速にRF遺伝子座が導入された花粉親の開発が可能である。現在、CMSを利用したF1採種システムはトマトで開発されていないが、このDNAマーカーを活用することで、高純度の種子生産が可能なF1採種システムの開発に繋がると期待される。
