Rice grain size and chalkiness are important traits that influence grain yield and quality, respectively. Mining of genes for grain yield and appearance quality and clarification of their action modes are of great importance in rice breeding.

Water loss in hull and the effect of aerial humidity on the development of kernel were investigated. The results obtained are as follows: 1. The rate of water loss in the hull after detaching from panicle decreased, as ripening proceeded in both fertile and sterile grains. 2.

ABSTRACT While oasis settlements emerged during the Bronze Age in Eastern and Northern Arabia, the settlement process in Central Arabia was different. Excavations at al‐Yamāma—main ancient settlement of the al‐Kharj oasis (Riyadh Province, KSA)—suggest that the latter did not emerge before the second half of the first millennium BCE.

CHEMICAL CHARACTERISATION AND DILUTE-ACID HYDROLYSIS OF RICE HULLS FROM AN ARTISAN MILL
The chemical composition of rice hulls produced in an artisan mill and its conversion to fermentable sugars was investigated. The carbohydrate fraction represented 59.2% (w/w) of the dry hulls.

Commercial treaties and political transformation in Sulu and Southeast Asian littorals, c. 1830–1840
Abstract This article re‐examines an economic treaty concluded between Spain and the Sulu Sultanate in 1836. Analysing the Tausug (Jawi) and Spanish treaty versions alongside archival sources from Spain, the Philippines, and England, it traces the impact of indigenous agency beyond the formal signatories on economic and political transformations ...

Figures of an Agrarian Nation: Indonesia's Agricultural Census, 1963–2023
ABSTRACT Why have Indonesia's decennial agricultural censuses defined their key unit of analysis, the ‘agricultural household’, differently? How do changes to that category shape knowledge production among those who rely on census data? This paper compares definitions of the agricultural household across seven censuses with international ...

Phenotypic plasticity is broadly adaptive across an elevation gradient in the Cutleaf Monkeyflower
Leaf shape plasticity expression is variable in Mimulus laciniatus. Summary Phenotypic plasticity is a key mechanism by which organisms cope with environmental heterogeneity, but its evolutionary consequences depend on how plastic responses align with the broader adaptive landscape.

Silica Derived from Burned Rice Hulls
Three new processes to obtain silica having high specific surface area from burned pre-treated rice hulls are presented and discussed. These procedures allow for the simultaneous recovery of biomass energy and the production of high quality silica at ...

Structural Variations Contribute to Subspeciation and Yield Heterosis in Rice
ABSTRACT Yield heterosis has been extensively exploited in hybrid breeding, with intersubspecific hybrids often exhibiting the most pronounced effects. However, developing elite hybrids remains a laborious and time‐consuming process. The genetic basis of heterosis has been debated for over a century, hindered largely by the lack of high‐quality genomes.
