ABSTRACT Plant architecture, including plant height, tiller number, and leaf angle, is a critical determinant of rice yield. However, few genes have been identified that simultaneously regulate these traits and hold breeding value. We have previously shown that OsWRKY53 regulates the plant height and leaf angle via BR signalling.

Challenges in Bringing Pangenome Research Into Breeding: A Case Study in Rice
ABSTRACT Crop breeding has entered the pangenomics era, unlocking a far more comprehensive view of genetic diversity than a single reference genome can capture. In rice (Oryza sativa), a staple crop critical to global food security, the construction of pangenome resources has uncovered extensive structural variations (SVs), presence/absence variations (

Allele distributions at hybrid incompatibility loci facilitate the potential for gene flow between cultivated and weedy rice in the US. [PDF]
The accumulation of independent mutations over time in two populations often leads to reproductive isolation. Reproductive isolation between diverging populations may be reinforced by barriers that occur either pre- or postzygotically.

Measuring the Tensile Strength of Japonica-Indica Hybrid Rices in Korea
This article 'Measuring the Tensile Strength of Japonica-Indica Hybrid Rices in Korea' appeared in the International Rice Research Newsletter series, created by the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). The primary objective of this publication was to expedite communication among scientists concerned with the development of improved technology ...

ABSTRACT Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and development. The maintenance of Fe homeostasis relies on sophisticated regulatory networks where bHLH transcription factors play a key role. However, how these factors coordinate to regulate this vital process is not fully understood.

ABSTRACT Head milled rice rate (HMRR) is a critical trait determining rice yield and economic value, yet its genetic basis remains poorly understood. Here, through genome‐wide association study across multiple environments, we identified a major QTL, qHMRR4‐2, and pinpointed OsPUB77, a U‐box E3 ubiquitin ligase, as the causal gene.

ABSTRACT Natural antisense transcripts (NATs) correspond to nearly 60% of annotated rice loci, however their functions are largely unknown. In this study, we characterise a rice cis‐NAT (NAT1850) that completely overlaps with a rice‐specific primary miRNA, pri‐miR1850.

ABSTRACT Plant‐derived secondary metabolites act as regulators of in planta defence. Plant phenylpropanoid metabolic compounds, including final metabolites such as lignin and flavonoids, and a few intermediate metabolites play critical roles in defence.
