[PMID: 38155162 PMCID: PMC10754949 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-49914-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 12/30/2023] Open
Abstract
In order to evaluate the genetic effect caused by hybrid sterile loci, NILs with O. glaberrima fragment at six hybrid sterile loci under O. sativa genetic background (single-locus-NILs) were developed; two lines harboring two hybrid sterile loci, one line harboring three hybrid sterile loci were further developed. A total of nine NILs were used to test cross with O. sativa recurrent parent, and O. glaberrima accessions respectively. The results showed that the sterility of pollen grains in F1 hybrids deepened with the increase of the number of hybrid sterile loci, when the nine lines test crossed with O. sativa recurrent parent. The F1 hybrids were almost completely sterile when three hybrid sterile loci were heterozygeous. On the other hand, the single-locus-NILs had limited bridge effect on improving pollen grain fertility of interspecific hybrids. Compared single-locus-NILs, the multiple-loci-NILs showed increasing effect on pollen fertility when test crossing with O. glaberrima accessions. Further backcrossing can improve the fertility of pollen grain and spikelet of interspecific hybrids. The optimal solution to improve the fertility of interspecific hybrid can be utilization of pyramiding bridge parent plus backcrossing. This report has potential for understanding the nature of interspecific hybrid sterility, and overcoming the interspecific hybrid F1 pollen grain sterility between O. sativa and O. glaberrima.

Abstract
Understanding the evolutionary forces in speciation is a central goal in evolutionary biology. Asian cultivated rice has two subspecies, indica and japonica, but the underlying mechanism of the partial reproductive isolation between them remains obscure. Here we show a presence-absence variation (PAV) at the Se locus functions as an indica-japonica reproductive barrier by causing hybrid sterility (HS) in indica-japonica crosses. The locus comprises two adjacent genes: ORF3 encodes a sporophytic pollen killer, whereas ORF4 protects pollen in a gametophytic manner. In F1 of indica-japonica crosses, pollen with the japonica haplotype, which lacks the sequence containing the protective ORF4, is aborted due to the pollen-killing effect of ORF3 from indica. Evolutionary analysis suggests ORF3 is a gene associated with the Asian cultivated rice species complex, and the PAV has contributed to the reproductive isolation between the two subspecies of Asian cultivated rice. Our analyses provide perspectives on rice inter-subspecies post-zygotic isolation, and will promote efforts to overcome reproductive barriers in indica-japonica hybrid rice breeding.

THEORETISCHE UND ANGEWANDTE GENETIK 2023; 136:87.

Abstract
We identified and fine-mapped S58, a selfish genetic locus from Asian rice that confers hybrid male sterility in crosses between Asian and African cultivated rice, and found a natural neutral allele in Asian rice lines that will be useful for overcoming S58-mediated hybrid sterility. Hybrids between Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) and African cultivated rice (Oryza glaberrima Steud) display severe hybrid sterility (HS), hindering the utilization of strong heterosis in hybrids between these species. Several African rice selfish loci causing HS in Asian-African cultivated rice hybrids have been identified, but few such Asian rice selfish loci have been found. In this study, we identified an Asian rice selfish locus, S58, which causes hybrid male sterility (HMS) in hybrids between the Asian rice variety 02428 and the African rice line CG14. Genetic analysis confirmed that S58 causes a transmission advantage for the Asian rice S58 allele in the hybrid offspring. Genetic mapping with near-isogenic lines and DNA markers delimited S58 to 186 kb and 131 kb regions of chromosome 1 in 02428 and CG14, respectively, and revealed complex genomic structural variation over these mapped regions. Gene annotation analysis and expression profiling analyses identified eight anther-expressed candidate genes potentially responsible for S58-mediated HMS. Comparative genomic analysis determined that some Asian cultivated rice varieties harbor a 140 kb fragment deletion in this region. Hybrid compatibility analysis showed that this large deletion allele in some Asian cultivated rice varieties can serve as a natural neutral allele, S58-n, that can overcome S58-mediated interspecific HMS. Our study demonstrates that this selfish genetic element from Asian rice is important for HMS between Asian and African cultivated rice, broadening our understanding of interspecific HS. This study also provides an effective strategy for overcoming HS in future interspecific rice breeding.

Abstract
African cultivated rice (Oryza glaberrima Steud) contains many favorable genes for tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses and F1 hybrids between Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) show strong heterosis. However, the hybrids of two species often exhibit hybrid sterility. Here, we identified a male sterility locus qHMS4 on chromosome 4 (Chr.4), which induces pollen semi-sterility in F1 hybrids of japonica rice variety Dianjingyou1 (DJY1) and a near-isogenic line (NIL) carrying a Chr.4 segment from Oryza glaberrima accession IRGC101854. Cytological observations indicated that non-functional pollen grains produced by the hybrids and lacking starch accumulation abort at the late bicellular stage. Molecular genetic analysis revealed distorted segregation in male gametogenesis carrying qHMS4 allele from DJY1. Fine-mapping of qHMS4 using an F2 population of 22,500 plants delimited qHMS4 to a region of 110-kb on the short arm of Chr.4. Sequence analysis showed that the corresponding sequence region in DJY1 and Oryza glaberrima were 114-kb and 323-kb, respectively, and that the sequence homology was very poor. Gene prediction analysis identified 16 and 46 open reading frames (ORFs) based on the sequences of DJY1 and O. glaberrima, respectively, among which 3 ORFs were shared by both. Future map-based cloning of qHMS4 will help to understand the underlying molecular mechanism of hybrid sterility between the two cultivated rice species.

Abstract
Hybrid sterility genes define species identities, setting reproductive barriers between distantly related Oryza relatives. They induce allelic-specific selective gametic abnormalities by killing pollens, embryo sacs, or both, and thus resulting in the male specific transmission ratio distortion (mTRD), female specific transmission ratio distortion (f TRD), and/or sex-independent transmission ratio distortion (siTRD) in hybrids. Although more than 50 hybrid sterility genes have been reported, comprehensive analysis on the distributional pattern of TRD systems in Oryza species is limited. In this review, we surveyed the TRD systems and the underlying possible mechanisms in these species. In rice, pollen killers which cause mTRD are often observed in higher frequency than egg killers and gamete eliminators, which are factors affecting f TRD and siTRD, respectively. Due to the rather massive population of pollen grains, their reduction in the number caused by hybrid sterility possesses a smaller selective disadvantage to the hybrid individuals, in contrast to female gamete abortion. The pattern of TRD distribution displays less abundancy in siTRD. It suggests that fixation of siTRD might require a certain time rather than single sex-specific factors. The presence of linked sterility factors worked for mTRD and f TRD, and strength of their linkage in chromosomal regions might determine the type of sterility and TRD. The study of TRD systems has a potential to reveal the relationships between selfish genes and their functions for reproductive isolation.

Abstract
Rice improvement depends on the availability of genetic variation, and AA genome Oryza species are the natural reservoir of favorable alleles that are useful for rice breeding. To systematically evaluate and utilize potentially valuable traits of new QTLs or genes for the Asian cultivated rice improvement from all AA genome Oryza species, 6,372 agronomic trait introgression lines (ILs) from BC2 to BC6 were screened and raised based on the variations in agronomic traits by crossing 170 accessions of 7 AA genome species and 160 upland rice accessions of O. sativa as the donor parents, with three elite cultivars of O. sativa, Dianjingyou 1 (a japonica variety), Yundao 1 (a japonica variety), and RD23 (an indica variety) as the recurrent parents, respectively. The agronomic traits, such as spreading panicle, erect panicle, dense panicle, lax panicle, awn, prostrate growth, plant height, pericarp color, kernel color, glabrous hull, grain size, 1,000-grain weight, drought resistance and aerobic adaption, and blast resistance, were derived from more than one species. Further, 1,401 agronomic trait ILs in the Dianjingyou 1 background were genotyped using 168 SSR markers distributed on the whole genome. A total of twenty-two novel allelic variations were identified to be highly related to the traits of grain length (GL) and grain width (GW), respectively. In addition, allelic variations for the same locus were detected from the different donor species, which suggest that these QTLs or genes were conserved and the different haplotypes of a QTL (gene) were valuable resources for broadening the genetic basis in Asian cultivated rice. Thus, this agronomic trait introgression library from multiple species and accessions provided a powerful resource for future rice improvement and genetic dissection of agronomic traits.

A method for low-coverage single-gamete sequence analysis demonstrates adherence to Mendel's first law across a large sample of human sperm. eLife 2022; 11:76383.

Abstract
Recently published single-cell sequencing data from individual human sperm (n=41,189; 969-3377 cells from each of 25 donors) offer an opportunity to investigate questions of inheritance with improved statistical power, but require new methods tailored to these extremely low-coverage data (∼0.01× per cell). To this end, we developed a method, named rhapsodi, that leverages sparse gamete genotype data to phase the diploid genomes of the donor individuals, impute missing gamete genotypes, and discover meiotic recombination breakpoints, benchmarking its performance across a wide range of study designs. We then applied rhapsodi to the sperm sequencing data to investigate adherence to Mendel's Law of Segregation, which states that the offspring of a diploid, heterozygous parent will inherit either allele with equal probability. While the vast majority of loci adhere to this rule, research in model and non-model organisms has uncovered numerous exceptions whereby 'selfish' alleles are disproportionately transmitted to the next generation. Evidence of such 'transmission distortion' (TD) in humans remains equivocal in part because scans of human pedigrees have been under-powered to detect small effects. After applying rhapsodi to the sperm data and scanning for evidence of TD, our results exhibited close concordance with binomial expectations under balanced transmission. Together, our work demonstrates that rhapsodi can facilitate novel uses of inferred genotype data and meiotic recombination events, while offering a powerful quantitative framework for testing for TD in other cohorts and study systems.

Diploid Male Gametes Circumvent Hybrid Sterility Between Asian and African Rice Species. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2020; 11:579305.

Abstract
In F1 hybrids of Oryza sativa (Asian rice) and Oryza glaberrima (African rice), heterozygosity leads to a complete gamete abortion because of allelic conflict at each of the 13 hybrid sterility (HS) loci. We systematically produced 19 plants from the F1 hybrids of both the rice species by the anther culture (AC) method. Five of the 19 interspecific hybrid plants were partially fertile and able to produce seeds. Unlike ordinal doubled haploid plants resulting from AC, these regenerated plants showed various ploidy levels (diploid to pentaploid) and different zygosities (completely homozygous, completely heterozygous, and a combination). These properties were attributable to meiotic anomalies in the interspecific hybrid F1 plants. Examination of the genetic structures of the regenerated plants suggested meiotic non-reduction took place in the interspecific hybrid F1 plants. The centromeric regions in the regenerated plants revealed that the abnormal first and/or second divisions of meiosis, namely the first division restitution (FDR) and/or second division restitution (SDR), had occurred in the interspecific hybrid. Immunohistochemical observations also verified these phenomena. FDR and SDR occurrences at meiosis might strongly lead to the formation of diploid microspores. The results demonstrated that meiotic anomalies functioned as a reproductive barrier occurred before the HS genes acted in gamete of the interspecific hybrid. Although such meiotic anomalies are detrimental to pollen development, the early rescue of microspores carrying the diploid gamete resulted in the fertile regenerated plants. The five partially fertile plants carrying tetraploid genomes with heterozygous alleles of the HS loci produced fertile diploid pollens, implying that the diploid gametes circumvented the allelic conflicts at the HS loci. We also proposed how diploid male gametes avoid HS with the killer-protector model.

Li J, Zhou J, Zhang Y, Yang Y, Pu Q, Tao D. New Insights Into the Nature of Interspecific Hybrid Sterility in Rice. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2020; 11:555572. [PMID: 33072142 PMCID: PMC7538986 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2020.555572] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2020] [Accepted: 09/01/2020] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Interspecific and intraspecific hybrid sterility is a typical and common phenomenon of postzygotic reproductive barrier in rice. This is an indicator of speciation involved in the formation of new species or subspecies, and it significantly hampers the utilization of favorable genes from distant parents for rice improvement. The Oryza genus includes eight species with the same AA genome and is a model plant for studying the nature of hybrid sterility and its relationship with speciation. Hybrid sterility in rice is mostly controlled by nuclear genes, with more than 50 sterility loci genetically identified to date, of which 10 hybrid sterility loci or pairs were cloned and characterized at the molecular level. Comparing the mapping results for all sterility loci reported indicated that some of these loci from different species should be allelic to each other. Further research revealed that interactions between the multiple alleles at the hybrid sterility locus caused various genetic effect. One hypothesis for this important phenomenon is that the hybrid sterility loci are orthologous loci, which existed in ancient ancestors of rice. When one or more ancestors drifted to different continents, genetic divergence occurred because of adaptation, selection, and isolation among them such that various alleles from orthologous loci emerged over evolutionary time; hence, interspecific hybrid sterility would be mainly controlled by a few orthologous loci with different alleles. This hypothesis was tested and supported by the molecular characterization of hybrid sterility loci from S1, S5, Sa, qHMS7, and S27. From this, we may further deduce that both allelic and non-allelic interactions among different loci are the major genetic basis for the interspecific hybrid sterility between O. sativa and its AA genome relatives, and the same is true for intraspecific hybrid sterility in O. sativa. Therefore, it is necessary to raise the near-isogenic lines with various alleles/haplotypes and pyramided different alleles/haplotypes from sterile loci in the same genetic background aiming to study allelic and non-allelic interaction among different hybrid sterility loci in the AA genome species. Furthermore, the pyramiding lines ought to be used as bridge parents to overcome hybrid sterility for rice breeding purposes.

Identification and Fine Mapping of Pi69(t), a New Gene Conferring Broad-Spectrum Resistance Against Magnaporthe oryzae From Oryza glaberrima Steud. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2020; 11:1190. [PMID: 32849738 PMCID: PMC7426465 DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2020.01190] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2020] [Accepted: 07/22/2020] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
The discovery and deployment of new broad-spectrum resistance (R) genes from cultivated rice and its wild relatives is a strategy to broaden the genetic basis of modern rice cultivars to combat rice blast disease. Oryza glaberrima possessing many valuable traits for tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses, is an elite gene pool for improvement of Asian cultivated rice. An introgression line IL106 derived from O. glaberrima (Acc. IRGC100137) confers complete resistance to Magnaporthe oryzae in blast nursery. Genetic analysis using 2185 BC6F2 progenies derived from a cross between IL106 and the recurrent parent Dianjingyou 1 showed that IL106 harbors a single dominant resistance gene against M. oryzae strain 09BSH-10-5A. This gene was preliminarily mapped on the long arm of chromosome 6 of rice in a region of ca. 0.9 cM delimited by two SSR markers (RM20650 and RM20701). In order to finely map this gene, 17,100 additional progenies were further analyzed. As a result, this gene was further narrowed down to a region flanked by two molecular markers STS69-15 and STS69-7, and co-segregated with 3 molecular markers, RM20676, STS69-21 and STS69-22 on the long arm of chromosome 6. Based on reference genome sequences, this R gene was mapped in silico in 76.1-Kb and 67.7-Kb physical intervals, and containing 4 and 3 NBS-LRR candidate genes in O. sativa cultivar Nipponbare and O. glaberrima cultivar CG14, respectively. Because no blast resistance gene was finely mapped in this physical interval before, this R gene was considered as not described yet and designated as Pi69(t), which is the first identified and finely mapped blast R gene from O. glaberrima, as far as we know. Evaluation of IL106 with 151 blast strains collected from 6 countries in Asia showed that 148 strains are avirulent on IL106, suggesting that Pi69(t) is a broad-spectrum blast R gene, and a promising resistant resource for improvement of Asian cultivated rice.

Abstract
The aerobic adaptation of upland rice is considered as the key genetic difference between upland rice and lowland rice. Genetic dissection of the aerobic adaptation is important as the basis for improving drought tolerance and terrestrial adaptation by using the upland rice. We raised BC1-BC3 introgression lines (ILs) in lowland rice Minghui 63 (MH63) background. The QTLs of yield and yield-related traits were detected based on ILs under the aerobic and lowland environments, and then the yield-related QTLs were identified in a backcrossed inbred population of BC4F5 under aerobic condition. We further verified phenotypes of QTL near-isogenic lines. Finally, three QTLs responsible for increasing yield in aerobic environment were detected by multiple locations and generations, which were designated as qAER1, qAER3, and qAER9 (QTL of aerobic adaptation). The qAER1 and qAER9 were fine-mapped. We found that qAER1 and qAER9 controlled plant height and heading date, respectively; while both of them increased yields simultaneously by suitable plant height and heading date without delay in the aerobic environment. The phenotypic differences between lowland rice and upland rice in the aerobic environment further supported the above results. We pyramided the two QTLs as corresponding molecular modules in the irrigated lowland rice MH63 background, and successfully developed a new upland rice variety named as Zhongkexilu 2. This study will lay the foundation for using aerobic adaptation QTLs in rice breeding programs and for further cloning the key genes involved in aerobic adaptation.

Abstract
Oryza meridionalis is a potential source for improving Asian cultivated rice O. sativa via direct hybridization and backcrossing. However, hybrid sterility between O. sativa and O. meridionalis is the main barrier of reproduction hindering the transfer of favorable genes from O. meridionalis to O. sativa. To investigate the nature of hybrid sterility between O. sativa and O. meridionalis, three accessions of O. meridionalis were used as male parents to cross Dianjingyou 1, an O. sativa subsp. japonica cultivar following the backcross with the recurrent parent of Dianjingyou 1. Twenty pollen sterility NILs (BC6F1) were obtained and genotyped by using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers distributed across the 12 rice chromosomes. The heterozygous markers were employed to genotype the corresponding segregation populations for mapping sterility genes. As a result, five novel loci for pollen sterility between O. sativa and O. meridionalis were identified and designated as S51(t), S52(t), S53(t), S54(t) and S55(t), respectively. The genetic behavior of five novel loci followed one-locus allelic interaction model. The disharmonious interaction between Asian cultivated rice allele and wild relative allele led to the partial or full abortion of male gametes for one parent allele in the heterozygotes. These results will be useful for elucidating the mechanism of interspecific hybrid sterility and further utilizing favorable genes from O. meridionalis for enhancement of rice breeding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate plant hybrid sterility, we studied interspecific hybrids of two cultivated rice species, Asian rice (Oryza sativa) and African rice (O. glaberrima). Male gametes of these hybrids display complete sterility owing to a dozen of hybrid sterility loci, termed HS loci, but this complicated genetic system remains poorly understood. RESULTS Microspores from these interspecific hybrids form sterile pollen but are viable at the immature stage. Application of the anther culture (AC) method caused these immature microspores to induce callus. The segregation distortion of 11 among 13 known HS loci was assessed in the callus population. Using many individual calli, fine mapping of the HS loci was attempted based on heterozygotes produced from chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs). Transmission ratio distortion (TRD) from microspores was detected at 6 of 11 HS loci in the callus population. The fine mapping of S 1 and S 19 loci using CSSLs revealed precise distances of markers from the positions of HS loci exhibiting excessive TRD. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated that AC to generate callus populations derived from immature microspores is a useful methodology for genetic study. The callus population facilitated detection of TRD at multiple HS loci and dramatically shortened the process for mapping hybrid sterility genes.

Abstract
Hybrid sterility between Oryza sativa and O. glaberrima is a main reproduction barrier when transferring the favorable alleles from O. glaberrima to O. sativa and it happens due to allelic interaction at sterility loci. Neutral alleles at each locus have the potential to overcome the sterility between the two cultivated rice species. In this study, an O. sativa cultivar Dianjingyou 1 (DJY1) and its near-isogenic lines (NILs) harboring the single sterility allele S1-glab, S19-glab, S20-glab, S37-glab, S38-glab and S39-glab as the tested lines were crossed with O. glaberrima, O. rufipogon, O. nivara, O. glumaepatula, O. barthii, O. meridionalis and O. sativa so as to detect the neutral alleles of these loci. Pollen fertility was investigated in the paired F1s based on two seasons' result and genotypic segregation was also analyzed in some F2 populations to confirm the results of pollen fertility investigation. The neutral alleles of S38-n and S39-n were identified based upon the pollen fertility and genotypic segregation analysis for the first time. The neutral alleles of sterility loci detected from present report have the potential to know of the nature of interspecific hybrid sterility, and to overcome the interspecific hybrid sterility between O. sativa and O. glaberrima.

Abstract
In order to know the genetic nature of hybrid sterility further, three populations, a BC4F2 population derived from Oryza nivara crossed with Yundao 1, a BC4F2 population derived from O. rufipogon crossed with Yundao 1, and a BC10F1 population derived from a cross between O. barthii and Dianjingyou 1 were developed, respectively. Three hybrid sterility QTLs, qHS-6a, qHS-6b, and qHS-6c, detected from those three populations, were mapped into the region between RM190 and RM510, RM190 and RM3414, RM190 and RM587 on chromosome 6, respectively. These QTLs showed collinearity, and explained 88.24%, 61.52%, 44.46% of the phenotypic variance in pollen fertility and 80.60%, 35.20%, 29.01% of the phenotypic variance in spikelet fertility, respectively. In all three crosses, the gametes carrying Yundao 1 or Dianjingyou 1 alleles were eliminated by gametes carrying the wild species alleles. Comparison of the location and the mode of gene action of three QTLs correspond to the S1 locus indicates a common and conserved hybrid sterility locus in AA genome specie playing an important role in reproductive barriers in Oryza. Fine mapping of these QTLs would lead to understand the micro-collinearity and evolutionary relationship among Oryza species.

Abstract
Segregation distortion is commonly detected via genetic mapping and this phenomenon has been reported in many species. However, the genetic causes of the segregation distortion regions in a majority of species are still unclear. To genetically dissect the SD on chromosome 18 in cotton, eight reciprocal backcross populations and two F2 populations were developed. Eleven segregation distortion loci (SDL) were detected in these ten populations. Comparative analyses among populations revealed that SDL18.1 and SDL18.9 were consistent with male gametic competition; whereas SDL18.4 and SDL18.11 reflected female gametic selection. Similarly, other SDL could reflect zygotic selection. The surprising finding was that SDL18.8 was detected in all populations, and the direction was skewed towards heterozygotes. Consequently, zygotic selection or heterosis could represent the underlying genetic mechanism for SDL18.8. Among developed introgression lines, SDL18.8 was introgressed as a heterozygote, further substantiating that a heterozygote state was preferred under competition. Six out of 11 SDL on chromosome 18 were dependent on the cytoplasmic environment. These results indicated that different SDL showed varying responses to the cytoplasmic environment. Overall, the results provided a novel strategy to analyze the molecular mechanisms, which could be further exploited in cotton interspecific breeding programs.

Abstract
Hybrid sterility locus S37 between Oryza glaberrima and Oryza sativa results in both pollen and embryo sac sterility. Interspecific crossing between African cultivated rice Oryza glaberrima and Oryza sativa cultivars is hindered by hybrid sterility. To dissect the mechanism of interspecific hybrid sterility, we developed a near-isogenic line (NIL)-S37 using Dianjingyou1 (DJY1) as the recipient parent and an African cultivated rice variety as the donor parent. Empty pollen and embryo sac sterility were observed in F1 hybrids between DJY1 and NIL-S37. Cytological analyses showed that pollen abortion in the F1 hybrids occurred at the late binucleate stage due to a failure of starch accumulation in pollen grains. In addition, partial abortion of the embryo sac in the F1 hybrid was observed during function megaspore developing into mature embryo sac. Molecular analysis revealed that the semi-sterility was largely caused by the abortion of male and female gametophytes carrying the S37 allele from DJY1. A population of 25,600 plants derived from the hybrid DJY1/NIL-S37 was developed to fine map S37. Based on the physical location of molecular markers, S37 locus was finally delimited to a region of 205 kb on the short arm of chromosome 1 in terms of reference sequences of cv. Nipponbare. Interestingly, an about 97-kb DNA segment was deleted in the NIL-S37 based on BAC clone information of O. glaberrima. Fifty-four open reading frames (ORF) were predicted in this 205-kb region of DJY1, whereas only 31 ORFs were in that of NIL-S37. These results are valuable for cloning of S37 gene and further breaking reproductive isolation between Oryza glaberrima and Oryza sativa cultivars, as well as marker-assisted transferring of the corresponding neutral allele in rice breeding programs.

Abstract
Hybrid incompatibility plays an important role in establishment of post-zygotic reproductive isolation. To unveil genetic basis of hybrid incompatibilities between diverged species of genus Oryza AA genome species, we conducted genetic dissection of hybrid sterility loci, S22(t), which had been identified in backcross progeny derived from Oryza sativa ssp. japonica (recurrent parent) and South American wild rice O. glumaepatula near the end of the short arm of chromosome 2. The S22(t) region was found to be composed of two loci, designated S22A and S22B, that independently induce F1 pollen sterility. Pollen grains containing either of the sterile alleles (S22A-glum (s) or S22B-glum (s) ) were sterile if produced on a heterozygous plant. No transmission of the S22A-glum (s) allele via pollen was observed, whereas a low frequency of transmission of S22B-glum (s) was observed. Cytological analysis showed that the sterile pollen grains caused by S22A could reach the bicellular or tricellular stage, and the nearly-sterile pollen grains caused by S22B could reach the tricellular stage. Our genetic analysis showed repulsion linkage effect is possible to induce strong reproductive barrier by high pollen sterility based on recombination value and transmission ratio of hybrid sterility gene to the progeny was influenced by frequency of competitors on fertilization.
