Abstract: High yield sesame plants and parts thereof are provided. Phenotypic and genotypic analysis of many sesame varieties was performed to derive markers for phenotypic traits that contribute to high yield, and a breeding simulation was used to identify the most common and most stable markers. Examples for such phenotypic traits include the number of capsules per leaf axil, the capsule length, the height to first capsule and the number of lateral shoots. Following verification of trait stability over several generations, markers and marker cassettes were defined as being uniquely present in the developed sesame lines. The resulting high yield, shatter-resistant sesame lines can be used to increase sesame yield for its various uses.

A method of differentiating rice materials with a superior allele associated with high yield includes: (1) detecting a genotype of rice to be detected based on a specific gene fragment; where the specific gene fragmentOsASA1 is located in rice genome, and there are typically two allelic forms of OsASA1, OsASA1_a shown as SEQ ID NO. 1 and OsASA1_b shown as SEQ ID NO. 2; and (2) determining and comparing the average yield of a rice population with a genotype of homozygous OsASA1_b and that of a rice population with a genotype of homozygous OsASA1_a under the same growth conditions in different geographical regions. The rice population with the genotype of homozygous OsASA1_b shows a higher average yield than the rice population with the genotype of homozygous OsASA1_a.
