[Genetic ecology of rice allelopathy on receiver plant].

In this study, 5 parental rice lines with different allelopathic potential were employed in partial diallel cross (4 x 5) to get 10 groups of F1 seeds. After testing the inhibitory effects of 5 parents and 10 F1s under different environment at different leaf stage on the shoot length of receiver plant lettuce(Lactuca sativa L.), dynamic genetics of rice allelopathy and its genotype x environment effects were analyzed by using additive-dominant developmental genetic models. The results showed that additive and dominant effect genes expressed alternatively during 3-leaf stage to 8-leaf stage in rice seedling. As additive effect genes were pronounced at 7-leaf stage, dominant effect genes appeared to play the most important role at 3-leaf stage and 6-leaf stage but the two effect genes were equally important at 5-leaf stage and 8-leaf stage. Heritabilities analysis indicated that the general heritability in the narrow sense(HN2) was significant at 5-, 7- and 8-leaf stage, and decreased with increasing leaf stage. Rice allelopathy was significantly affected by genotype x environment (GE) interaction, suggesting that the environment of allelopathic rice development must be controlled for practical use.
