Genetic analysis of heat tolerance at anthesis in rice by Jagadish, S.V.K., Cairns, J., Lafitte, R., Wheeler, T.R., Price, A.H., Craufurd, P.Q.

“…An F6 population of 181 recombinant inbred lines of Bala (tolerant) × Azucena (susceptible) was screened for heat tolerance at anthesis by measuring spikelet fertility at 30°C (control) and 38°C (high temperature) in experiments conducted in the Philippines and the United Kingdom. The parents varied significantly for absolute spikelet fertility under control (79–87%) and at high temperature (2.9–47.1%), and for relative spikelet fertility (high temperature/control) at high temperature (3.7–54.9%). …”
