Identification of somatic hybrids between rice cultivar and wild Oryza species by RAPD

The somatic hybrids between rice cultivar and wild Oryza species were obtained by the PEG and electrical fusion method. The somatic hybrids were identified with PAPD. It was verified that the genome of somatic hybrids contained some genomes from both parents, but they contributed unequally. In some somatic hybrids, the portion from one parent was more than the other. The relationship between somatic hybrids and their parents was analyzed based on RAPD data.
