Golden queen 3: A High-quality Rice Variety with Low Amylose Contents and Aroma

Abstract

Golden queen 3', an aromatic rice variety, was developed by Seedpia inc. (Suwon, Korea) breeding company in 2014. This cultivar was derived from a cross between 'HJ-11', a high-yield, aromatic line, and 'JCH33M-15-1-9-1', which has a low amylose content. During the F3-F8 generation, breeding lines were selected using a pedigree breeding method. The most promising line (JS9-3-73-15-5-1-5-3-1-1) was advanced and named 'SP005' in 2013. This variety was headed on August 13, two days later than 'Hwayeong' in the 'in middle plane' is commonly used to distinguish rice cultivation areas in Korea, so I think it's no problem to the understanding for readers (including farmers). The culm and panicle lengths of this variety were 75.7 cm and 20.1 cm, respectively. It has approximately 14.7 tillers per hill and 104.8 spikelets per panicle, and the 1000-grain weight was 21.8 g. The yield performance was 5.47 MT/ha in the local adaptability test, and the amylose content of this variety was 12.5%. 2-Acetyl-1-pyrroline was detected as the major volatile ingredient in aromatic rice, and a 1 bp insertion on the 14th exon (badh2.7 allele) was identified in the Badh2 gene.
