Journal ArticleDOI

Genomes of 13 domesticated and wild rice relatives highlight genetic conservation, turnover and innovation across the genus Oryza

Joshua C. Stein, +75 more
- 22 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: This study resolves controversial areas of the Oryza phylogeny, showing a complex history of introgression among different chromosomes in the young ‘AA’ subclade containing the two domesticated species and announcing many new haplotypes of potential use for future crop protection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular Markers and Their Use in Marker-Assisted Selection in Rice

TL;DR: The use of cost-effective DNA markers derived from the fine mapped position of the genes for important agronomic traits and MAS strategies will provide opportunities for breeders to develop high-yielding, stress-resistant, and better-quality rice cultivars.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-resolution mapping of a new brown planthopper (BPH) resistance gene, Bph18 (t), and marker-assisted selection for BPH resistance in rice ( Oryza sativa L.)

TL;DR: Identification of Bph18(t) enlarges the BPH resistance gene pool to help develop improved rice cultivars, and the PCR marker (7312.T4A) for the Bph 18(T) gene should be readily applicable for marker-assisted selection (MAS).
Journal ArticleDOI

Current status of brown planthopper (BPH) resistance and genetics

TL;DR: Efficient introgression of resistance genes into elite rice cultivars by marker-assisted selection together with strategic deployment of these genes can be an important approach to develop stable resistance to BPH and sustain rice production in the tropical and temperate rice growing regions.
