Genetic diversity and differentiation of the African wild rice (Oryza longistaminata chev. et roehr) in Ethiopia

open access: yesScientific African, 2019
Undomesticated rice species (Oryza longistaminata) which possessed AA genome as O. sativa, is native to Africa and a good candidate for widening the cultivated rice gene pool. So as to use O.

Developing superior alleles of yield genes in rice by artificial mutagenesis using the CRISPR/Cas9 system

open access: yesCrop Journal, 2018
Rice yield is an important and complex agronomic trait controlled by multiple genes. In recent decades, dozens of yield-associated genes in rice have been cloned, many of which can increase production in the form of loss or degeneration of function ...

Australian wild rice reveals pre-domestication origin of polymorphism deserts in rice genome. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND:Rice is a major source of human food with a predominantly Asian production base. Domestication involved selection of traits that are desirable for agriculture and to human consumers.

Testing of Rice Stocks for Their Survival of Winter Cold

open access: yesRice Science, 2018
Rice cultivation is considered to be initiated by vegetative propagation of sprout from wild perennial stocks. To test whether any presently cultivated rice cultivar can survive the winter cold or not, rice stocks of several cultivars including indica ...

Artificial selection of the Green Revolution gene Semidwarf 1 is implicated in upland rice breeding

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture
Semidwarf breeding has boosted crop production and is a well-known outcome from the first Green Revolution. The Green Revolution gene Semidwarf 1 (SD1), which modulates gibberellic acid (GA) biosynthesis, plays a principal role in determining rice plant ...

Comparison of wild rice (Oryza longistaminata) tissues identifies rhizome-specific bacterial and archaeal endophytic microbiomes communities and network structures.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Compared with root-associated habitats, little is known about the role of microbiota inside other rice organs, especially the rhizome of perennial wild rice, and this information may be of importance for agriculture.

Sustainable agriculture through perennial grains: Wheat, rice, maize, and other species. A review

open access: yesAgriculture, Ecosystems & Environment, 2022
Grain crops are an important part of the human diet, accounting for a third of the consumed calories. Throughout human history, annual grain crops with high yields have been obtained through domestication. However, the “annual” characteristic brings associated a series of economic and environmental disadvantages, such as soil erosion or low soil ...
