title: [Effect of temperature on the fertility restoration of different two-line hybrid rice].
abstract: On the basis of the fertility observation of hybrids from Pei'ai 64S and Nongken 58S crossed with an indica variety Nanjing11 and japonica marker line FL235, respectively, The plant growth chambers were employed to expose the F2 plant individuals to such different day mean temperature as 24 degrees C, 27 degrees C and 30 degrees C during natural long hour daylight from July to August in Wuhan (30 degrees 27' N), with a view to analyzing the difference in the temperature sensitivity of fertility between the two kinds of different fertility-restoring genes for two years running. The results showed that, whether it was under long daylight and high temperature or under long daylight and middle temperature, the mean natural seed-set percent of F1 was higher than 68.75%, suggesting that Nanjing11 could completely restore the fertility of Pei'ai 64S. And however, under natural high temperature condition, N58S x FL235 F1 could set seed naturally with 21.93%-26.75%, the mean natural seed set percent of F1 was 46.36%-48.38% in natural middle temperature condition, ability of FL235 to restore the fertility of N58S was affected by high temperature. Further analysis proved that temperature could not alter the inheritance mode of F2 but affect the extent of fertility genes expression in Nanjing11. On the other hand, the expression of fertility-genes of FL235 was sensitive to high temperature, whose the putative critical temperature was 27 degrees C, and high temperature influenced not only the genetic interactions but also the segregation modes in F2 generations.
