Effects of Cd uptake, translocation and redistribution in different hybrid rice varieties on grain Cd concentration

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
In order to identify the key transport process that determines the Cd concentration in brown rice, this study used 21 hybrid rice varieties as experimental materials and conducted field experiments in Qiyang (cadmium-contaminated site) and Yongding (low ...

Overexpression of OsLCT2, a Low-Affinity Cation Transporter Gene, Reduces Cadmium Accumulation in Shoots and Grains of Rice

open access: yesRice, 2021
Cadmium (Cd)-contaminated rice is a serious issue affecting food safety. Understanding the molecular regulatory mechanisms of Cd accumulation in rice grains is crucial to minimizing Cd concentrations in grains.

Fine mapping of GS2, a dominant gene for big grain rice

open access: yesCrop Journal, 2013
Grain shape as a major determinant of rice yield and quality is widely believed to be controlled by quantitative trait loci (QTL). We have identified a novel gene “GS2” to largely regulate grain length and width in rice.

Effect of elevated CO2 and high temperature on seed-set and grain quality of rice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Hybrid vigour may help overcome the negative effects of climate change in rice. A popular rice hybrid (IR75217H), a heat-tolerant check (N22), and a mega-variety (IR64) were tested for tolerance of seed-set and grain quality to high-temperature stress at

Identification of a New Wide-Compatibility Locus in Inter-Subspecific Hybrids of Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

open access: yesAgronomy, 2022
As a special class of rice germplasm, wide-compatibility varieties (WCVs) guarantee the fertility of hybrids when there is cross-fertilization between two subspecies.
