Abstract excerpt
In this study, one major QTL affecting gel consistency (GC) of japonica/indica cross was identified on chromosome 6 using a DH population. To understand the molecular mechanism that regulates GC in rice grains, the major QTL (qGC-6) was isolated through a map-based cloning approach utilizing chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs). Using 64 plants with extremely soft GC that were selected on recombinant...
