TL;DR: This review discusses the recent advances in the management of iAs in rice plants emphasizing the use of nanotechnology and biotechnology approaches and the prospects and challenges facing these approaches are described.

TL;DR: The elucidation of the function of OsGBP enhances the understanding of the molecular basis of starch biosynthesis in rice and contributes information that can be potentially used for the genetic improvement of yield and grain quality.

TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive overview of CRISPR-Cas technology and its most important applications for food crops' improvement is provided and the regulatory aspects of deploying this technology in commercial sectors, bioethics, and the production of transgene-free plants are discussed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors characterized the rice chlorophyll deficient 4 (cde4) mutant which exhibits an albino phenotype during early leaf development, with decreased chlorophyLL contents and abnormal chloroplasts at low-temperature (20°C).

TL;DR: Light is shed on the control of seed dormancy aimed at preventing PHS in rice by generating the Oryza sativa Viviparous1 (OsVP1) mutant using gene editing technique, which shows increased PHS compared with that of the wild type Nipponbare.
