    Abstract:
    The dwarf gene Rht3 derived from Tom Thumb variety, a Tibetan wheat of China, is a dominant gene with the insensitivity to gibberellic acid. Rht3 shows to depress alpha-amylase activity and hence enchance the resistance to preharvest sprouting mainly through its effect on the expression of alpha-Amy1. Near isogenic lines with Rht3 and their segregating population were analyzed by PCR and RFLP techonology. In RAPD analysis, out of 310 random primers (10 bp) screened, only three primers of UBC389, OPV-06 and S1060 revealed polymorphisms in NIL from 310 random primers. Fragments S1060(1900) and S1060(2000) amplified by primer S1060 were shown to be linked to Rht3 with a genetic distance 7.1 cM and 9.2 cM. Fifty-three probes specific for short arms of homoeologous group 4 were screened in RFLP analysis. Xpsr584, XksuF8 and Xcdo38 showed polymorphisms between the NIL. The linkage analysis indicateded that Xpsr584 was linked to Rht3 with a genetic distance 8.0 cM.
