An improved cytoplasmic male sterile line and improved production of hybrid soybean plants which utilizes the control of a single nuclear restorer gene to impact sterility. A cytoplasmic male sterile soybean plant is provided, wherein fertility is restored through the introduction of a dominant allele at a nuclear restorer gene locus. Maintenance of the cytoplasmic male sterile soybean line is achieved through cross pollination with a male fertile isoline wherein the isoline has a fertile cytoplasm gene and recessive alleles at a nuclear restorer gene locus. The cytoplasmic male sterile line can be used as a female in the production of hybrid soybean plants when cross-pollinated with a male sterile restorer line having dominant restorer allele at the nuclear restorer gene loci. The resulting seeds are harvested from the female plant and can be planted to grow male fertile F1 plants.
A cytoplasmic male sterile soybean plant, or its parts, produced by repetitively back-crossing the F1 progeny of a cross of G. max ‘Ru Nan Tian E Dan’, representative seed of which is deposited at CCTCC accession No. P97004, as a female parent and G. soja ‘5090035’, representative seed of which is deposited at CCTCC accession No. P97003, as a male parent, wherein the F1 progeny seed from the female parent is harvested and back-crossed with G. soja ‘5090035’ as a back-cross male parent, and selecting for male sterile progeny at the back-cross generations.
A male fertile soybean plant, or its parts, containing a cytoplasmic male sterile genetic component, said component being that found in G. max ‘Ru Nan Tian E Dan’, representative seed of which is deposited at CCTCC accession No. P97004, and dominant alleles of a nuclear restorer gene which confers male fertility in the presence of said cytoplasmic male sterile genetic component.
A method for producing a cytoplasmically male sterile soybean plant;
A male fertile soybean plant, or its parts, having a homozygous recessive nuclear restorer gene of G. soja ‘5090035’, representative seed of which is deposited at CCTCC accession No. P97003, capable of allowing expression of male sterility in the presence of the male sterile cytoplasm of G. max ‘Ru Nan Tian E Dan’, representative seed of which is deposited at CCTCC accession No. P97004.
A cytoplasmic male sterile soybean plant, or its parts, having a homozygous recessive cytoplasm specific nuclear restorer gene capable of allowing expression of male sterility in the presence of a male sterile cytoplasm of G. max ‘Ru Nan Tian E Dan’, representative seed of which is deposited at CCTCC accession No. P97004, and further having the male sterile cytoplasm found in G. max ‘Ru Nan Tian E Dan’.
A method for producing hybrid soybean comprising:
A method of identifying a male fertile soybean plant comprising a homozygous recessive cytoplasm specific nuclear restorer gene capable of allowing expression of male sterility in the presence of male sterile cytoplasm found in G. max ‘Ru Nan Tian E Dan’, representative seed of which have been deposited at CCTCC accession No. P97004, the method comprising:
