Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic variation in 3,010 diverse accessions of Asian cultivated rice

TL;DR: Analyses of genetic variation and population structure based on over 3,000 cultivated rice (Oryza sativa) genomes reveal subpopulations that correlate with geographic location and patterns of introgression consistent with multiple rice domestication events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improvement of rice drought tolerance through backcross breeding: Evaluation of donors and selection in drought nurseries

TL;DR: These drought-selected introgression lines represent a useful genetic resource to develop improved cultivars for farmers in rainfed or water-scarce rice-growing regions, and also to improve the understanding of the genetic and molecular basis of drought tolerance in rice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide introgression lines and their use in genetic and molecular dissection of complex phenotypes in rice (Oryza sativa L.).

TL;DR: The development of over 20 000 introgression lines (ILs) in three elite rice genetic backgrounds for a wide range of complex traits, including resistances/tolerances to many biotic and abiotic stresses, morpho-agronomic traits, physiological traits, etc., by selectiveintrogression.
Journal ArticleDOI

A natural tandem array alleviates epigenetic repression of IPA1 and leads to superior yielding rice

TL;DR: The identification of a QTL, qWS8/ipa1-2D, in the super rice Yongyou12 (YY12) and related varieties reveals that IPA traits can be fine-tuned by manipulating IPA1 expression and that an optimal IPA1expression/dose may lead to an ideal yield, demonstrating a practical approach to efficiently design elite super rice varieties.
