Abstract
doubled haploid (DH) population derived from anther culture of Fl's be tween an Indica var. Zhai-Ye-Qing 8 and Japonica var. Jing-Xi17 as wel l as two backcross populations derived from this DH population were us ed to investigate inheritance of the embryo sac abortion at early mega gametogenesis occurring in Indica/Japonica rice crosses. Two major loc i, dominant and complementary esa-1 and esa-2, located on chromosomes 6 and 12 respectively, were detected. Generic analysis indicated that embryo sac fertility is mainly regulated by the gametophytic genotype at these two loci.
