    Abstract:
    Between wild fertile type (F) and its sterile mutant (cms), if their nucleus and cytoplasm are the same, this wild fertile type (F) and its sterile mutant (cms) are called isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines. The maize mtDNAs of isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines (I), wild fertile type 478(F) and its sterile mutant 478-cms, were analyzed by RAPD. 94 primers were screened, 3 polymorphic products, OPZ-19(420), OPAA-15(600) and OPS-01(400), were amplified between 478(F) and 478-cms. The results showed that mtDNAs in isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines were more homologous than that in others. There is minor mtDNA difference between the fertile type (F) and its sterile type (cms) in a pair of isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines. The polymorphism detected in isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines may be more closely linked with the gene of fertility. Therefore, isonucleus and isocytoplasmic line is an excellent system in the study of CMS. Sister isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines are consisted of 2 groups of isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines in which their nucleus are not all the same but closely related, their cytoplasm are the same. Using sister isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines is equal to determining the change of fertility by transferring one cytoplasm into the isonucleus. Isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines (II) are consisted of Su478(F) and Su478-cms. Isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines (I) and (II) are sister isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines. The polymorphic products, OPZ-19(420) and OPAA-15(600), can also be obtained in isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines (II). The 2 polymorphic products OPZ-19(420) and OPAA-15(600) are existed in both of the isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines. This showed that isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines are practicable in the study of CMS, and that common polymorphism in isonucleus and isocytoplasmic lines may be related more directly to fertility.
