Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
This disclosure concerns high-resolution mapping and candidate gene cloning of Rf4, a maize restorer of fertility gene that restores fertility to C-type cytoplasmic male sterility. The disclosure also relates to molecular markers that are tightly-linked to, or reside within, the Rf4 gene. In some embodiments, methods are provided whereby hybrid seeds may be produced from crosses of a male plant comprising nucleic acid molecular markers that are linked to or that reside within the Rf4 gene and a female plant carrying C-type CMS.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What may be claimed is: 1. A maize plant comprising an Rf4 functional restorer gene for maize C-type cytoplasmic male sterility from restorer line XJH58, wherein the plant comprises a marker nucleotide sequence selected from the group consisting of Marker ID Nos. 1-50: B73 Chrom. 8 Position Marker ID No. Start Stop Marker 1 8885 8885 C 2 11684 11684 G 3 11883 11883 C 4 12831 12831 C 5 13168 13168 A 6 13171 13171 C 7 13179 13179 T 8 13191 13191 G 9 14191 14191 A 10 15309 15309 A 11 15639 15639 T 12 15735 15735 T 13 15744 15744 A 14 15790 15790 A 15 17395 17395 T 16 18749 18749 T 17 18796 18796 T 18 18798 18799 GC 19 19119 19119 A 20 22230 22230 T 21 22266 22266 C 22 41082 41082 C 23 41335 41335 C 24 41944 41944 T 25 44285 44285 C 26 44387 44387 T 27 45202 45202 — 28 46136 46136 A 29 46447 46447 G 30 46912 46912 T 31 46957 46957 A 32 46959 46959 T 33 46973 46973 C 34 46975 46975 A 35 46989 46989 G 36 47001 47001 C 37 47026 47026 A 38 65062 65063 — 39 65438 65438 GGT 40 66993 66993 A 41 79739 79739 A 42 82093 82093 T 43 85155 85155 A 44 85667 85667 A 45 85782 85784 — 46 86079 86079 A 47 86097 86097 TC 48 86113 86113 T 49 86247 86247 T 50 86653 86653 —,
