| Abstract | Utilizing inter-subspecies heterosis of indica-japonica rice hybrids is a potential solution to break the yield ceiling for hybrid rice breeding. However, the reduced panicle fertility (PF) of the inter-subspecies hybrids caused by reproductive isolation due to genetic divergence between parental varieties has hampered the effective utilization of the inter-subspecies heterosis. This is because significantly reduced fertility always leads to low yield of the F1 hybrids. To study the association between genetic divergence of indica-japonica parental varieties and panicle fertility of their inter-subspecies hybrids, we developed a method to determine the genetic divergence index (GDI) of the two parents, assisted by the insertion/deletion (InDel) molecular genotyping. Based on parents’ GDI, we produced 103 combinations of F1 hybrids whose parental varieties showed a wide range of indica-japonica genetic divergence. PF of all the F1 hybrids in different combinations was measured to analyze its association with GDI of their corresponding parents. A negative correlation between GDI of indica-japonica parental varieties and PF of their corresponding F1 hybrids was detected based on field experiments conducted in three independent locations. The results suggested that GDI of parental varieties can be used to predict PF of their indica-japonica hybrids before a hybridization experiment is conducted. The molecular-maker-based GDI provides a useful tool to assist in selecting indica and japonica parental varieties for hybrid rice breeding in a more designed manner to achieve reasonable heterosis and panicle fertilities in F1 hybrids. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
