Deskripsi
The availability of stable cytoplasmic male sterility and fertility restoring system is vital for commercial exploitation ofheterosis in rice. This study using three CMS lines viz., APMS 6A, CRMS 32A and PUSA 6A and six testers viz., SR-6-SW-8-1, R 1099-2569-1-1, R-1557-1306-1-568-1, Super rice-7, Super rice-8 and Jitpiti. Based on the pollen fertility (%)and spikelet fertility (%) two genotypes i.e. Super rice-8 for APMS 6A and R 1099-2569-1-1 for CRMS 32A wereidentified as potential restorers and two genotypes i.e. SR-6-SW-8-1 for APMS 6A and R-1557-1306-1-568-1 for CRMS32A were identified as maintainers.
