Utilizing differences in bTH tolerance between the parents of two-line hybrid rice to improve the purity of hybrid rice seed [PDF]
IntroductionTwo-line hybrid rice based on Photoperiod/thermo-sensitive genic male sterile (P/TGMS) lines has been developed and applied widely in agriculture due to the freedom in making hybrid combinations, less difficulty in breeding sterile lines, and

High-frequency synthetic apomixis in hybrid rice. [PDF]
AbstractIntroducing asexual reproduction through seeds – apomixis – into crop species could revolutionize agriculture by allowing F1 hybrids with enhanced yield and stability to be clonally propagated. Engineering synthetic apomixis has proven feasible in inbred rice through the inactivation of three genes (MiMe), which results in the conversion of ...

Hybrid Vigour and Hybrid Mimics in Japonica Rice
In crop improvement programs, hybrid vigour (heterosis) is an important breeding strategy but the molecular mechanisms of hybrid vigour are still unclear. Grain yield declines after F1 generation due to phenotypic segregation. We found that, at the early seedling stage in hybrids derived from the temperate japonica rice varieties ‘Doongara’ and ‘Reiziq’

E2Fs co-participate in cadmium stress response through activation of MSHs during the cell cycle
Cadmium is one of the most common heavy metal contaminants found in agricultural fields. MutSα, MutSβ, and MutSγ are three different MutS-associated protein heterodimer complexes consisting of MSH2/MSH6, MSH2/MSH3, and MSH2/MSH7, respectively.
