Rice mesocotyl is the region between the coleoptile node and point of union of the culm with the root. The mesocotyl is one of the important factor contributing to rice seedling emergence from soil in direct seedling. Several quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for mesocotyl elongation of rice had been reported in few studies. However, association mapping of mesocotyl elongation QTL was not conducted. For that reason, we detected QTLs for mesocotyl elongation in agar and soil conditions and confirmed the potentials of QTLs using chromosome substitution lines (CSSLs). Backcross inbred line (BILs) and chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) derived from a cross between Kasalath and Nipponbare were employed to detect QTLs for mesocotyl elongation in rice. A total of 12 QTLs for mesocotyl elongation were detected on chromosome 1, 3, 6, 7, 9 and 12 using 98 BILs in agar and soil conditions. Two QTLs, qMel-1 and qMel-3 were consistently detected in both conditions. For substitution mapping of qMel-1 and qMel-3, across was made between 2 CSSLs, CSSL-6 and CSSL-15. Our results showed that the qMel-1 was located between two markers RM5448 and RM5310 on chromosome1 and the qMel-3 was located between RM15859-RM15974 on chromosome3. To understand factors controlling mesocotyl elongation, cell expansion and division of rice mesocotyl were investigated. Moreover, microarray analysis was conducted to select candidate genes using near-isogenic lines for two QTLs. 194 genes were up- and down regulated in rice mesocotyl.
