The fertile counterpart parent of a cytoplasmic male sterile A line which is used as male parent to maintain the A line. It is also known as a maintainer line.
Industry:Agriculture
Adenosine triphosphate, a nucleotide consisting of adenine, ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups; the major source of usable chemical energy in metabolism. On hydrolysis, ATP loses one phosphate to become adenosine diphosphate (ADP), releasing usable energy.
Industry:Agriculture
Oryza sativa L. The cultivated rice believed to have originated in Asia.
Industry:Agriculture
Single primer amplification method developed by Welsh and McClelland. Usually large single primers of 20-30 nucleotides are annealed to target DNA then amplified by PCR under nonstringent conditions for two cycles. Then stringency (i.e., temperature) is increased. Products are separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography.
Industry:Agriculture
Not a species of rice. It is a wild grass found in the USA with grains similar to those of rice. Its scientific name is Zizania aquatica.
Industry:Agriculture
Amplification fragment length polymorphism. A variant DNA amplification product of different size produced by DAF, PCR, or RAPD technique.
Industry:Agriculture
Adenosine-5'-diphosphate, a complex sugar-phosphorus compound formed as a result of expenditure of energy and the loss of a phosphate group from the energy-rich ATP (adenosine triphosphate) compounds.
Industry:Agriculture
A line. The male sterile parent involving cytoplasmic or cytoplasmic genetic male sterility developed to produce hybrid seed. It is also known as a cytoplasmic male sterile line.
