Abstract

This study was conducted to determine physiobiochemical basis of heterosis using rice hybrids such as Shanyou 63 (Zhenshan 97As Minhui 63) and Teyou 63 (Longtepu A Minhui 63) as compared with inbred rice like Milyang 23. Seed protein patterns of rice hybrid showed complementary genetic characteristics inherited from their parents. Hybrid rice had larger embryo and higher $\alpha$-amylase activity than those of inbred rice. The larger embryo of hybrid was significantly correlated with tillering ability and high number of low node tillers jplant increased by 60~70% in Shanyou 63, leading to higher productive tillers/plant which directly influenced on grain yield of hybrid rice. These characters were further supported by high chlorophyll content in hybrids. Exogenous application of GA$_3$ (0.02 ppm) on inbred rice like Milyang 23, increased significantly $\alpha$-amylase activity, but no effect of GA$_3$ on hybrid rice was observed, indicating that sufficient amount of GA$_3$ is endogenously present in hybrid rice, showing 1 to 3.5 fold higher activity of $\alpha$-amylase in hybrid rice, which trigger heterosis from the germinating stage. Further, activity of cytochrome c oxidase was 2.66 to 5.52 fold higher in hybrid rice than that of inbred rice, indicating that rice hybrids have very active metabolism reflecting vigorous growth starting from the germinating stage, in turn leading to higher tillering ability.

본 연구는 잡종강세를 나타내는 두 조합의 벼 일대 잡종 품종, Shanyou 63, Teyou 53과 inbred계인 밀양 23호 등을 공시하여 벼의 잡종강세 발현기작을 규명코자 실시되었으며, 수행 후 얻어낸 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 1. 종자 단백질 분석을 통해, 잡종강세 발현의 유전적인 특성들이 부분적으로 모본으로 부터 유전된다는 사실을 규명하였다. 2. Hybrid계 벼는 inbred계보다 배아의 크기가 크고 $\alpha$-amylase 활성 및 chlorophyll함량이 높게 나타났다. 이러한 특성들은 분얼능력, 특히 수량에 밀접한 영향을 끼치는 하부절간의 분얼수와도 관계가 있었으며, Shanyou 63의 경우 다른 inbred계에 비해 60~70%나 분얼력이 높았다. 3. 인위적으로 GA$_3$ 0.02 ppm을 처리한 후 $\alpha$-amylase활성 측정시, hybrid계에는 영향을 미치지 못하였으나 밀양 23은 무처리보다 높은 활성을 나타내었다. 이와 같은 결과는, hybrid계 벼의 종자내에는 이미 충분한 GA를 함유하고 있으며 이것이 초기활력과 관계있는 것으로 추정된다. 4. Cytochrome c oxidase의 활성은 inbred계 보다 hybrid rice에서 2.7~5.5배나 높게 나타났으며, 따라서 hybrid계 벼의 대사작용이 매우 높았다.
