One of the most desired and highly valuable characters is aroma or fragrance, whose preference and demand is increasing day by day. Aromatic rice is considered proudly as an asset in many countries. More than 200 types of volatile substances are found in rice among which 2-acetyl-1-pyrrole (2-AP) is the most important compound in fragrance rice. By the help of map-based cloning, Badh2, the principal gene contributing 2-AP was mapped on chromosome 8. Non-functional BADH2 protein is resulted if a mutation occurs in badh2 gene. Hence, the accumulation of principal aromatic compound, 2-AP occurs in aromatic rice. This paper provides the insights into the genetic basis, gene function and application of aroma gene functional markers in the cultivation, production and breeding of aromatic rice along with its genetic improvement. |
