Rice is one of the most important crops in China and whole world, which is the model cereal organism because of its small genome. The yield of rice is related to the food security of China and world. So, how to improve the yield and resistance of rice have attracted the attention of breeders. One of the most important aspects of breeding methods to raise rice production is the utilization of the heterosis at the diploid level. The rice yield has been obviously increased by the use of the heterosis, which improve living standards of the people. However, as the climate warms up, the environment worsens and the damage of the diseases and pests increases, the methods of rice breeding are now facing challenges such as: the productivity of rice has been stagnant and the resistance level is not increased significantly. The breeding of autotetraploid rice seems to be an approach worth exploring, because of its gigantic characteristics (Cai et al., 2001; Shahid et al., 2011 and 2013a). Autotetraploid rice is a new germplasm which is obtained by chromosome doubling through colchicine treatment. Autotetraploid rice showed higher genetic variation, greater stability across varying environments, resistant to lodging, higher hybrid vigor, greater grain length and width and resistant to insect pest and diseases than diploid rice (Song and Zhang, 1992; Luan et al., 2008; Tu et al., 2007; Shahid et al., 2011, 2012; Wu et al., 2013). However, Low seed set is the major barrier in autotetraploid rice breeding (He et al., 2011a; Shahid et al., 2013a). There are many reasons for low seed setting of autotetraploid rice, such as pollen and embryo sac abortion (Huang et al., 1999; Zhang et al., 2003; Guo et al., 2006; Hu et al., 2010; Shahid et al., 2010), abnormal chromosome behavior and microtubule distribution pattern, and differentially expressed genes and miRNAs (He et al, 2011a,b; Wu et al., 2014, 2015; Li et al., 2016). Indicajaponica autotetraploid rice hybrids have shown strong yield potential, which would provide a new way to the rice breeding (Shahid et al., 2012). But the poor fertility or low seed set is the inherent problem which has limited the yield advantages of autotetraploid hybrid rice breeding. In order to overcome this problem, through continuous hard work for 20 years, we have developed a large number of autotetraploid rice lines after chromosome doubling with varying seed set. Some new autotetraploid rice lines with high fertility were developed in our lab from 2007. Therefore, the present study was planned to 1) investigate the cytogenetic and agronomic characteristics of newly developed high fertility autotetraploid rice line, 2) and to observe the hybrid vigor by nPak.
