The invention relates to the field of
hybrid rice breeding, and discloses a method for directionally breeding
mutant hybrid rice parents. According to the method,
mutation tillering is accurately positioned in the M1 tillering stage through the KASP technology, and a directional
pollination / harvesting strategy is combined, so that the genetic
bottleneck caused by chimeras and
low fertility (especially sterile lines) is effectively overcome, the
mutation transmission efficiency is maximized, and the M1 generation
mutation transmission efficiency is remarkably improved. Through early accurate identification and efficient propagation of the M1 generation, homozygotes can be obtained and screened from the M2 generation, and compared with a traditional process, the method has the advantages that the obtaining process of low-
cadmium homozygous parents is obviously accelerated, and the breeding period is greatly shortened.
Heavy ion mutagenesis, targeted sequencing, high-
throughput KASP
typing and directional propagation technologies are integrated, and the whole process from
mutagenesis to obtaining of the homozygous low-
cadmium parent is rapid, accurate and efficient.
