Plant Factory Speed Breeding Significantly Shortens Rice Generation Time and Enhances Metabolic Diversity

open access: yesEngineering
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) plays a pivotal role in global food security, yet its breeding is constrained by its long generation time and seasonality. To enhance rice breeding efficiency and meet future food demands, we have developed a vertical hydroponic ...

Seed shattering in weedy rice is not similarly regulated as in cultivated rice.

open access: yes, 2022
:Although seed shattering is one of the main causes of weedy rice persistence it still is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to identify the main genes related with the occurrence of seed shattering in weedy rice.

Charting the Path to Increased Oil Palm Output in Ghana Beyond Area Expansion: Technology or Managerial Capacity — Which Leads the Way?

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study sets out to investigate the prospects for raising oil palm output in sub‐Saharan Africa, particularly Ghana, without further expansion of cropland. Given global concerns about oil palm's role in deforestation and land use change, the focus is on enhancing productivity on existing farmlands.

Genomic patterns of nucleotide diversity in divergent populations of U.S. weedy rice

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2010
Background Weedy rice (red rice), a conspecific weed of cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.), is a significant problem throughout the world and an emerging threat in regions where it was previously absent.

A genetic analysis of the introgression process from cultivated lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) to wild prickly lettuce (L. serriola L.)

open access: yes, 2011
Many plant species can hybridise and produce fertile offspring. Hybridization between cultivated species and their wild relatives has raised concerns with regard to GM crops, as it constitutes a possible route along which the transgene could disperse ...

Locus-specific view of flax domestication history [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Crop domestication has been inferred genetically from neutral markers and increasingly from specific domestication-associated loci. However, some crops are utilized for multiple purposes that may or may not be reflected in a single domestication ...

The Power of Unity: Collective Action and Smallholder Agricultural Performance in West Africa

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We analyze the impact of collective action through farmer‐based organizations (FBOs) on smallholders' farm performance and income inequality in Ghana, Benin, The Gambia, and Mali. We find that FBO membership increases cereal yield in Ghana and The Gambia, legume yield in Mali, ruminant numbers in Benin and The Gambia, and total farm income in ...

Where Was Cultivated Rice Born?: A Review [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
この論文は国立情報学研究所の学術雑誌公開支援事業により電子化されました。Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) is believed to have been born in the hills of sub-tropical Asia, in an area stretching from Bhutan to southwest China called the "Oriental fertile crescent." This hypothesis was ...
