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]
Abstract Introducing 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 (

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.
