[Chang-Sheng Wang] A Paraquat Tolerance Mutant in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Is Controlled by Maternal Inheritance

Nian-Hao Shih, Da-Gin Lin, Ching-Yuh Wang, and Chang-Sheng Wang, 2018 American Journal of Plant Sciences

Paraquat (1,1’-dimethyl-4,4’-bipyridinium) tolerance is an important trait in the weed control during crop production. The paraquat tolerant (Pq72) and susceptible (Pq1192) mutants are pure lines derived from the mutation pool of rice cultivar TNG67. The results suggested that a maternal inheritance of paraquat tolerance is existed in these mutants.
