Breeding the whole crop siliage rice cultivar basically requires priority in high biomass and grain yield and tolerance biotic and abiotic stresses. In this context, AA genome wild rices are potential resources to broaden genetic variability for whole crop silage cultivar. We have developed several introgression populations from crosses with three AA genome wild rices, O.glaberrima, O.rufipogon, and O.longistamina. Among these populations, the three BC4F8 near isogenic lines (NILs) derived from a cross of Milyang 23 and O.glaberrima(acc. 101154) could produce the high-yielding lines surpassing Milyang 23 by 20% in grain yield. Introgression lines from crosses with 4 accessions of O.rufipogon with japonica rices, Hwaseongbyeo and Ilpumbyeo had huge agronomic variability and very tall and vigorous lines possessing culm length of 125 ∼ 187cm were selected as promising potential parents to improve biomass of existing cultivars. These selections with high yield potential and biomass will be crossed to create another gene pool to combine high yield and biomass and anther culture breeding could be useful to develop genetically fixed F2 lines with both traits.

The Brown planthopper (BPH) is one of the most serious pests of rice affecting rice yield and quality throughout the country. AA genome wild rice, O.rufipogon is a useful source of insect resistance to BPH. To broaden the BPH resistance in the existing quality japonica cultivars, crossess were made between a highly susceptible quality rice cultivar, Ilpumbyeo, and five accessions (acc.106109, 106286, 106424,105908,80671) of O.rufipogon. Among 126 F8 RIL lines evaluated for Bph resistance at NICS, the highly resistant 22 introgression lines were identified and Ilpumbyeo*2/O.rufipogon (acc.105908) showed different genotype at the marker loci of Bph1, Bph18 and the resistance reaction to BPH in the BC1F2 population fitted to 3:1 segregation mode, indicating the possible new dominant resistance gene might be involved. Polymorphism between Ilpumbyeo and resistant line was low with 36 (27%) SSR markers among 130 markers detected. Currently mapping population of BC2F2 is established and SSR marker analysis will be carried out to find out the resistance loci.

ABSTRACT: Wide hybridization was used to broaden the gene pool of japonica rice. Different approaches involving direct crosses between four japonica cultivars and eight wild species in combination with anther culture, embryo rescue, and molecular markers were used to produce interspecific hybrids, advanced alien introgression lines, dihaploids, and characterization of alien introgression. Interspecific hybrids were produced between Jinmibyeo, Ilpumbyeo, and Hwaseongbyeo cultivars of rice (O. sativa, 2n=24 AA) and wild species, O. rufipogon (2n=24, AA), O. longistaminata (2n=24, AA), O. punctata (2n=24, BB), O. minuta (2n=48, BBCC), O. alta (2n=24, CCDD), including African rice species, O. glaberrima (2n=24, AA). Crosses involving species other than A genome were produced through embryo rescue and were sterile. Following backcrossing with the recurrent japonica parents, advanced progenies have been produced for transfer of alien genes into japonica rice. As results of yield trials, three elite lines were generated from this cross; they are "Suweon 487" with resistance to black streak dwarf virus, "Suweon 497" with blast and bacterial blight resistance and "Suweon 506" with blast resistance, emonstrating that wild species genes have now become important component of japonica rice breeding.
