Multiple mutations in BADH2 gene reveal the novel fragrance allele in indica rice (Oryza sativa L.).

Abstract excerpt

The aroma in rice is the most appreciable quality trait, controlled by the loss of function of the betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (BADH2) gene. In the present study, indica rice cultivars (basmati, nonbasmati aromatic, and nonaromatic) were screened to explore allelic differences in the BADH2 gene using two functional markers (badh2-p-5'UTR and FMbadh2-E7). Notably, the results of the present mutational...
