To create novel variants for morphological, physiological, and biotic stress tolerance traits, induced mutations were created using Ethyl Methane Sulphonate (EMS) in the background of Samba Mahsuri (BPT 5204), a popular and mega rice variety of India. A population derived from 10, 500 M1 plants and their descendants were phenotyped for a wide range of traits leading to the identification of 124 mutants having variations in key agro-morphological traits, and 106 mutants exhibiting variation for physiological traits. Higher yield is the ultimate goal of crop improvement and we identified 574 mutants having higher yield compared to wild type by having better yield attributing traits. Further, a total of 50 mutants showed better panicle exertion phenotypes as compared to Samba Mahsuri leading to enhancement of yield. Upon rigorous screening for three major biotic stresses, 8 mutants showed enhanced tolerance for yellow stem borer (YSB), and 13 different mutants each showed enhanced tolerance for sheath blight (ShB) and bacterial leaf blight (BLB), respectively. In addition, screening at multiple locations that have diverse field isolates identified 3, 3, and 5 lines for tolerance to ShB, YSB and BLB, respectively. On the whole, 1231 desired mutant lines identified at M2 were forwarded to an advanced generation (M5). PCR based allele mining indicated that the BLB tolerant mutants have a different allele than the reported alleles for well-known genes affecting bacterial blight resistance. Whole genome re-sequencing revealed substantial variation in comparison to Samba Mahsuri. The lines showing enhanced tolerance to important biotic stresses (YSB, ShB and BLB) as well as several economically important traits are unique genetic resources which can be utilized for the identification of novel genes/alleles for different traits. The lines which have better agronomic features can be used as pre-breeding lines. The entire mutant population is maintained as a national resource for genetic improvement of the rice crop. |
