a Chromosome maps of NIL-SLG1Ind and NIL-SLG1Tej. Red rectangles indicate the donor segment containing the SLG1 locus. NIL-SLG1Ind indicates KY131 (temperate japonica) with SLG1Ind allele from ZF802 (indica), and NIL-SLG1Tej indicates ZF802 with SLG1Tej allele from KY131. b Comparison of thermotolerance between SLG1Ind and SLG1Tej alleles. Two-leaf-stage seedlings were treated with 45 °C for 56 h for KY131 and NIL-SLG1Ind, and 64 h for ZF802 and NIL-SLG1Tej, respectively. The seedlings were then recovered under normal conditions for 10 days. Data are means ± SD (n = 3 biological replicates, with 80–96 seedlings per biological replicate). **P < 0.01, two-tailed Student’s t-test. Bar = 5 cm. The source data underlying (b) are provided as a Source data file.
