Unit and internal chain profile of African rice (Oryza glaberrima) amylopectin

open access: yesCarbohydrate Polymers, 2016
High-performance anion-exchange chromatography was used to study the unit chain profiles of amylopectins and their φ,β-limit dextrins from two African rice (Oryza glaberrima) accessions-TOG 12440 and IRGC 103759. The samples were compared with two Asian rice (Oryza sativa) samples (cv Koshihikari and cv WITA 4) and one O. sativa × O.

Genome-Wide Comprehensive Survey of the Subtilisin-Like Proteases Gene Family Associated With Rice Caryopsis Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Subtilisin-like proteases (SUBs), which are extensively distributed in three life domains, affect all aspects of the plant life cycle, from embryogenesis and organogenesis to senescence.

A Repertoire of Major Genes From Crop Wild Relatives for Breeding Disease‐Resistant Wheat, Rice, Maize, Soybean and Cotton Crops

open access: yesPlant Breeding, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Challenges in Bringing Pangenome Research Into Breeding: A Case Study in Rice

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 6, Page 3679-3690, June 2026.
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 (

Novel QTLs in an interspecific backcross Oryza sativa × Oryza glaberrima for resistance to iron toxicity in rice

open access: yesEuphytica, 2015
Iron (Fe) toxicity is a major constraint in lowland rice. Because of its higher rusticity and adaptability to adverse soil conditions, the African rice Oryza glaberrima constitutes a new potential source of genes for rice improvement. This study aimed at mapping quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for resistance to Fe toxicity.

Comprehensive survey and evolutionary analysis of genome-wide miRNA genes from ten diploid Oryza species

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2017
Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are non-coding RNAs that play versatile roles in post-transcriptional gene regulation. Although much is known about their biogenesis, and gene regulation very little is known about their evolutionary relation among the ...

In Silico Characterization of a Cyclin Dependent Kinase -A (CDKA) and its Coding Gene in some Oryza Species

open access: yesمجلة بغداد للعلوم, 2020
Rice (Oryza sativa) is a fundamental food for the majority of world population. Cyclin Dependent Kinase -A (CDKA) accelerates transition through different stages of cell cycle and contributes in gametes formation.

Molecular Control of Tiller Angle and Its Role in Rice Domestication

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant architecture is a key determinant of rice (Oryza sativa) productivity, with tiller angle playing a central role in optimizing plant density, light interception, and yield. During domestication, rice underwent a critical transition from the prostrate growth habit of wild relatives such as Oryza rufipogon to the erect architecture of ...

Transposable element distribution, abundance and role in genome size variation in the genus Oryza

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007
Background The genus Oryza is composed of 10 distinct genome types, 6 diploid and 4 polyploid, and includes the world's most important food crop – rice (Oryza sativa [AA]). Genome size variation in the Oryza is more than 3-fold and ranges from 357 Mbp in
