Abstract: S-c is one of the F1 pollen sterility loci between indica and japonica cultivars in rice. The genotype of Taichong 65 (T65) and Guangluai 4 (GLA 4) at the locus is Sj/Sj and Si/Si, respectively. Four indica-compatible japonica lines (ICJLs), G24163, G2417-2-1, G2605 and G3004-4 were crossed with testers, T65 and GLA 4, and their S-c locus genotypes were identified. The segregation of PCR-based molecular markers linked tightly with S-c locus and plant pollen fertility in several F2 populations showed that G2416-3 possessed Si-2/Si-2 genotype; G2605 and G3004-4 possessed Si-1/Si-1 genotype; while G2417-2-1 possessed Sn/Sn genotype. The test methods on genetic differentiation of the F1 pollen sterility loci were also discussed in this paper.
