| Title | Genotypic variation for tolerance to phosphorus de®ciency in rice and the potential for its exploitation in rice improvement | |
|
Abstract: Deficiency in phosphorus (P) can severely limit rice yields. Developing cultivars with tolerance to P deficiency may represent a more sustainable solution than sole reliance on fertilizer application. To assess genotypic variation for tolerance to P deficiency the P uptake of 30 genotypes was measured on P-deficient soil. Variation for P uptake was high, ranging from 0.6 to 12.9 mg P/plant. Traditional varieties were superior to modern varieties. A major quantitative trait locus for P uptake had previously been identified in a population developed by crossing the modern variety 'Nipponbare' with the P deficiency-tolerant landrace 'Kasalath'. This quantitative trait locus was transferred to 'Nipponbare' by three backcrosses. Under P deficiency this improved line surpassed `Nipponbare' in P uptake by 170% and in grain yield by 250%. These results show that the genotypic variation for tolerance to P deficiency in rice can be used successfully in rice improvement. By combining high P uptake of the donor variety 'Kasalath' with a high harvest-index characteristic of modern varieties it was possible to more than triple the grain yield of 'Nipponbare' under P deficiency. |
