Breeding of the Long-Grain Restorer of Indica-Japonica Hybrid Rice by Using the Genetic Effects of Grain Shape QTLs

Agronomy, 2022
Grain shape improvement, which determines grain yield, quality traits and commercial value, is an extremely important aspect of rice breeding. Grain size is controlled by multiple genes, and Maker Assistant Selection (MAS) breeding is effective for ...

Identification and Fine Mapping of Osdsm3, a Drought-Sensitive Gene in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Agronomy, 2023
Drought poses a significant constraint on rice production, and, in this study, we have discovered a novel drought-sensitive mutant, designated as dsm3, arising from the progenies of indica rice variety Zhonghui8015 treated with ethyl methane sulphonate ...

Contribution and Prospect of Erect Panicle Type to japonica Super Rice

Rice Science, 2021
Over the past 30 years, super rice played an important role in boosting rice yield. The phenotype of erect panicle (EP) architecture controlled by dense and erect panicle 1 (dep1) is the typical characteristic of super rice, and the phenotype has been ...

SLL1-ZH Regulates Spikelets Architecture and Grain Yield in Rice

Agriculture, 2021
The spikelet developmental processes that control structure and floral organ identity play critical roles in rice grain yield formation. In this study, we characterized a novel rice mutant, SLL1-ZH, which exhibits a variety of defective agronomic ...

LSSR1 facilitates seed setting rate by promoting fertilization in rice

Rice, 2019
Seed setting rate is one of the major components that determine rice (Oryza sativa L.) yield. Successful fertilization is necessary for normal seed setting. However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms governing this process. In this study, we

K-Domain Splicing Factor OsMADS1 Regulates Open Hull Male Sterility in Rice

Rice Science, 2015
We identified the rice floral organ development mutant, termed as open hull and male sterile 1 (ohms1), from the progeny of the indica restorer line Zhonghui 8015 treated with 60Co γ-ray irradiation. The ohms1 mutant exhibited an open hull and lemma- and

Association Mapping of Quantitative Trait Loci for Grain Size in Introgression Line Derived from Oryza Rufipogon

Rice Science, 2020
Grain size is one of the critical agronomic traits governing grain yield and quality in rice. However, the underlying genetic mechanisms that control grain size in rice are poorly understood.

RDWN6 XB , a major quantitative trait locus positively enhances root system architecture under nitrogen deficiency in rice

BMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Nitrogen (N) is a major input cost in rice production, in addition to causing severe pollution to agricultural and ecological environments. Root dry weight has been considered the most important component related to crop yields than the other ...

Strategies for developing Green Super Rice [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
From a global viewpoint, a number of challenges need to be met for sustainable rice production: ( i ) increasingly severe occurrence of insects and diseases and indiscriminate pesticide applications; ( ii ) high pressure for yield increase and overuse of fertilizers; ( iii
