Zusammenfassung: | Brown planthopper (
BPH
),
N
ilaparvata lugens
S
tål (
H
emiptera:
D
elphacide), is a destructive insect pest of rice,
O
ryza sativa
L. (
P
oaceae), in rice‐producing areas worldwide. Host plant resistance is a major aspect of managing this pest. In this study, a mapping population consisting of 150 F
3
lines, derived from a cross of
MR
276 and Rathu Heenati, was used to detect and analyse quantitative trait loci (
QTL
s) for the resistance to
BPH
. Composite Interval Mapping (
CIM
) was used for
QTL
detection. In total 10
QTL
s controlling
BPH
resistance were mapped on chromosomes 1, 3, 6, 7, 9, 10, and 12. Four
QTL
s –
qB
ph‐1‐1,
qB
ph‐3‐1,
qB
ph‐6‐1, and
qB
ph‐7‐1 – were mapped on chromosomes 1, 3, 6, and 7 in the standard seedbox screening test, explaining 41% of the phenotypic variance. Two
QTL
s,
qB
ph‐6‐1 and
qB
ph‐9‐1, were detected on chromosomes 6 and 9 in the honeydew test, accounting for 32% of the total phenotypic variance. Moreover, four
QTL
s –
qB
ph‐3‐1,
qB
ph‐6‐1,
qB
ph‐10‐1, and
qB
ph‐12‐1 – were identified on chromosomes 3, 6, 10, and 12 expressing antixenosis to
BPH
and explaining 41% of the phenotypic variance.
QTL qB
ph‐3‐1 was located in the chromosomal region between markers
RM
231 and
RM
3872 on chromosome 3, and
QTL qB
ph‐6‐1 was located in the region between
RM
588 and
RM
204 on chromosome 6, indicating that these regions have a major effect in controlling the resistance to
BPH
in the population studied. The molecular markers linked to
QTL
s that are identified will be useful in the development of varieties resistant to
BPH
. Our study contributes to the development of genetic material for breeding programmes and marker‐assisted selection (
MAS
) in rice to improve BPH resistance. |
