Abstract:

With the improvement of people’s living standard,high quality has become breeding aim of rice breeders and concern of consumers. Rice quality includes milling quality,appearance quality,eating and cooking quality,and nutrient quality. First,we reviewed the progress in studies on inheritance and breeding improvement of rice quality. Then we introduced the cloned genes related to rice quality or molecular function of QTLs for rice quality and their application in quality improvement. Based on this,we analyzed the issues encountered at present in rice quality inheritance and improvement prospected future research interests.

Key words: rice, quality trait, inheritance, breeding improvement
