Abstract:

In order to clarify the genetic diversity of early indica rice germplasm resources in Zhejiang Province and improve the utilization efficiency of parental selection in early indica rice breeding, the diversity levels of 14 main phenotypic characters of 100 early indica rice germplasm resources were analyzed by means of coefficient of variation, genetic diversity index, principal component analysis, two-dimensional ranking analysis, stepwise regression analysis and cluster analysis. The results showed that the coefficient of variation of 14 phenotypic traits ranged from 0.96% (growth period) to 41.07% (shriveld grains per panicle). The genetic diversity index of 14 phenotypic traits ranged from 5.50 (shriveld grains per panicle) to 5.61 (growth period). Based on the two-dimensional sorting analysis of principal components, the germplasm resources with large panicles, small number of shriveled grains per panicle, small length-width ratio, moderate length of the second leaf and moderate growth period, long panicles and more effective panicles per plant were screened. According to the two-dimensional sorting results, early indica rice materials 4128, 4209, 4225 and 4278 were overlapping germplasms in two-dimensional sorting, which could be used as breeding parents or intermediate materials. Principal component analysis and comprehensive evaluation showed that the comprehensive traits of material 4021 ranked first among 100 early indica rice germplasm resources. At the same time, six phenotypic traits, such as filled grain number per panicle, shriveled grain number per panicle, seed setting rate, effective panicle per plant, grain length and grain width, could be selected as key indicators for comprehensive evaluation of early indica rice resources. At the same time, the hierarchical clustering was conducted based on the sum of squares of deviations, and 100 early indica rice materials were divided into four categories, with significant differences in various phenotypic traits.
