摘 要:The eytological basis of pollen abortion was investigated in rice genetic male sterile(GMS) lines controlled by single recessive genes. Four types, namely stainable pollen abor-tion (SPA), partial pollen abortion (PPA), complete pollen abortion (CPA), and no pollen(NP), were compared with the original cultivar M-101. Observations on chromosome beha-vior and tetrad analysis at meiosis showed that apparent chromosome aberrationswere closely related to the sterility in these GMS lines. The cytological abnor-malities occurring during the pollen development in these rice GMS lines were more pro-found and extensive than those reported in cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) rice. At leastthirteen kinds of abnormalities were seen from the pre-meiotic stages to post-meiotic stagesin this study. The existence of microsporocytic pseudoplasmodium, sticking pollen, andpollen dissolution implied that abnormalities were occurring simultaneously in the anther walllayers, particularly in the tapetum.
