Abstract

A novel rice mutant named ltep1 (low tiller number and erect panicle 1) was obtained from the wild type Nipponbare after EMS treatment. It was mainly characterized by erect panicles at the maturity stage with reduced tillers. The results showed that both rachis wall and culm wall in the ltep1 mutant were thicker than those in the wild-type plant, providing the mutant with stronger mechanical endurance. Genetic analysis indicated that the abnormal phenotype was controlled by a single recessive gene. By map-based cloning, ltep1 was mapped in a 160 kb region between two SSR markers, bep16 and RM25866, at the long arm of chromosome 10. Since no homologous gene had been found in this region, ltep1 might be a novel gene related to the development of rice panicle and tiller.
