| Abstract: | In this study, 5 parental rice varieties with different allelopathic potentials were employed indiallel cross [P(P+ 1)/2] to get a set of genetic materials including parental lines and two generations of F1 s.The dynamic heterosis for allelopathy in rice under different environmental conditions, was analyzed by usingadditive-dominant developmental genetic model. The results indicated that heterosis in both F1 and F2 showedinhibitory effects on shoot and root length of receiver plant (Lactuca sativa L. ). Heterosis over mid-parentbased on population mean(HMP) in F2 was lower than that in differental environmental conditions, showing1/2 HMP in F1. The heterosis in rice allelopathy was much higher under the field environmental conditionswith lower temperature and weaker sunlight than that under favorable environment, implying that the allel-opthic potential could be increased by stress environment. This finding interpreted the genetic reason thatplant could produce more allelochemicals under unfavorable environment. |
