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

Agriculture, 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.

Natural Diversity in Stomatal Features of Cultivated and Wild Oryza Species

Rice, 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

Sustainable intensification for a larger global rice bowl

Nature Communications, 2021
Future rice systems must produce more grain while minimizing the negative environmental impacts. A key question is how to orient agricultural research & development (R&D) programs at national to global scales to maximize the return on investment. Here we
