The invention provides a
molecular marker primer closely linked with a
brown planthopper resistant
major gene Bph48 of rice as well as a marking method and application of the
molecular marker primer. A rice
insect-resistant variety 75-9-3 (called C268 for short) and Yangdao 9 (called 9311 for short) are hybridized to obtain genotypes of F2 individual plants,
genetic linkage analysis is performed in combination with the
brown planthopper resistance level of an F3 family, a resistance
major gene Bph48 carried by the
insect-resistant variety C268 is identified, a Bph48 positioning region is reduced to a 370kb fragment limited by markers 1M30.093 and 1M30.471 on the two sides, and the Bph48
gene is identified to be a Bph48
gene. And the
molecular marker is closely linked with the molecular marker 1M30.471. The molecular marker 1M30.471 disclosed by the invention can be used for effectively detecting whether an
insect-resistant variety C268 and derived varieties (lines) thereof contain the major resistance
gene locus or not, so that the selection efficiency of the
brown planthopper resistant character is greatly improved, and the brown
planthopper resistant rice variety (line) containing Bph48 is obtained.
