Aerobic Rice: Benefits without going to the Gym?
2009Rice, a staple food for over 70% of Asians, is also the single biggest user of water, requiring 2‐3 times more water per unit of grain produced than crops such as wheat and maize. With growing populations, increased urbanisation and environmental degradation, the supply of fresh water is depleting.

Abstract About 90% of rice is produced and consumed in Asia, where the demand for rice is on the increase due to increasing population. Rice is a semiaquatic plant and grows well under lowland flooded anaerobic conditions. Most high yielding varieties yielding 6–8 t/ha have been developed to suit such conditions. However, there are large areas, where

Sustainability and profitability of aerobic rice production in Brazil
Field Crops Research, 2006Abstract Brazilian savannas or “cerrados”, which cover an area of 200 million ha, possess a high potential for agricultural production. Upland rice has been used as a pioneer crop to open these areas for cultivation, and covered an area of more than 4.5 million ha during the 1970s and 1980s. The cultivars used in this system were tall, japonica types,

The role and activity of bacterial endophytes remains largely unexplored and detail insight into Indian rice agro ecosystem is still little explored. In this study, we examined the diversity of endophytic bacteria in aerobic rice (variety ARB6) under aerobic and flooded field conditions.

Catalase Activity and the Aerobic and Anaerobic Germination of Rice
Botanical Gazette, 19251. The amount of catalase in the dry seeds of rice is much less than that of wheat, barley, oats, and rye, being in fact about one-tenth as great. 2. Rice germinating aerobically contains much catalase, about seven-tenths as much as germinating wheat, barley, and oats. 3.

Rice root colonisation by mycorrhizal and endophytic fungi in aerobic soil
Annals of Applied Biology, 2009AbstractArbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are ubiquitous root symbionts that form intimate associations with the majority of plants growing in aerobic soil; fungal endophytes live internally, either intercellularly or intracellularly, and asymptomatically within plant tissues.

Traits of importance for aerobic rice
2019Irrigation water is limited and costly and for the Australian Rice Industry based in the Riverina, this has become a major limitation to production. Aerobic production (well-watered, non-flooded) has been proposed to improve water productivity. However, historically in Australia, varieties have been developed for continuously flooded growing conditions

Effects of Irrigation and Nitrogen on the Performance of Aerobic Rice in Northern China
Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, 2008Abstract Aerobic rice is a new production system in which specially‐developed varieties are grown under non‐flooded, non‐puddled, and non‐saturated soil conditions. In 2003–2004, irrigation x Nitrogen experiments were carried out near Beijing using variety HD297.

Mitochondrial enzymes in aerobically and anaerobically germinated seedlings of Echinochloa and rice
Planta, 1991Activities of tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle enzymes in seedlings of barnyard grass (Echinochloa phyllopogon (Stapf.) Koss) and rice (Oryza sativa L.) germinated under aerobic and anaerobic conditions were investigated. In E. phyllopogon, development of TCA-cycle enzyme activities during 10 d of anoxia generally paralleled those in air, although at ...

Growth and Iron Uptake of Lowland and Aerobic Rice Genotypes under Flooded and Aerobic Cultivation
Communications in Soil Science and Plant Analysis, 2012With increasing water shortages in China, rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivation is gradually shifting away from continuously flooded conditions to partly or even completely aerobic conditions. The effects of this shift on the growth and iron (Fe) nutrition of different aerobic and lowland rice genotypes are poorly understood.
