Abstract

AbstractAromatic rice (Oryza sativa L.) germplasm conserved in global genebanks needs intensive characterization to assess genetic diversity and population structure for crop improvement. We analyzed a panel of 92 accessions of non‐Basmati aromatic rice landrace germplasm with 23 phenotypic traits and 48 microsatellite markers. The landrace accessions displayed a huge phenotypic diversity for traits, namely, culm length, flag‐leaf length, panicle‐bearing tillers (PBT), plant height, panicle length, peduncle length, panicle exsertion, grain length, grain width, hull color, and 1000‐grain weight (TGW). Phenotypic clustering revealed three major clusters and five principal components explained 81.24% of the variance. TGW was associated positively with grain length, grain width, peduncle length, and grain yield but negatively with culm length and PBT. A total of 528 microsatellite alleles were detected, with 11.0 alleles per locus, revealing the presence of high polymorphism. Genetically, four subpopulations were detected based on structure analysis. In the germplasm, high levels of gene flow (Nm = 1.51) and gene diversity (HE = 0.83) were found. Among the subpopulations, we discovered high levels of inbreeding (FIS = 0.92) and moderate genetic differentiation (FST = 0.14). High polymorphism information content (0.806) along with a high level of molecular variance among genotypes (79%) was detected. A large number of multiple alleles were detected in numerous landrace accessions, revealing the presence of heterogeneity and heterozygotes in the landrace germplasm. The results of the present study are vital for the utilization of landrace diversity in the genetic improvement programs designed for rice quality improvement and consumer preference.
