Rice for Food Security: Revisiting Its Production, Diversity, Rice Milling Process and Nutrient Content

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
Rice is food consumed regularly and is vital for the food security of over half the world’s population. Rice production on a global scale is predicted to rise by 58 to 567 million tonnes (Mt) by 2030.

Identification of an Elite Core Panel as a Key Breeding Resource to Accelerate the Rate of Genetic Improvement for Irrigated Rice

open access: yesRice, 2021
Rice genetic improvement is a key component of achieving and maintaining food security in Asia and Africa in the face of growing populations and climate change. In this effort, the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) continues to play a critical

A route to de novo domestication of wild allotetraploid rice.

open access: yesCell, 2021
Cultivated rice varieties are all diploid, and polyploidization of rice has long been desired because of its advantages in genome buffering, vigorousness, and environmental robustness. However, a workable route remains elusive.

Conceptualising teachers’ advocacy as comedic trickster behaviour: Implications for teacher education

open access: yesThe European Journal of Humour Research, 2015
The conception of a comedic hero as a trickster functions as a useful trope for evaluating the attempts teachers make as advocates in schools. The specific elements of the trope that the authors find useful are (a) comedy as a space where the absurd ...

Natural Diversity in Stomatal Features of Cultivated and Wild Oryza Species

open access: yesRice, 2020
Background Stomata in rice control a number of physiological processes by regulating gas and water exchange between the atmosphere and plant tissues. The impact of the structural diversity of these micropores on its conductance level is an important area
