Enhancing crop resilience through elite pre-breeding lines with key traits for dry direct-seeded rice. [PDF]

Plant Genome
Abstract Dry direct‐seeded rice (Oryza sativa L.; DDSR) is an alternative to transplanted puddled rice (TPR) that enhances water use efficiency and mechanization and reduces labor, greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and global warming potential (GWP). To address the limited availability of DDSR‐suitable varieties, we initiated a genomic‐assisted breeding ...
