Increasing the rice productivity from the current 10 to 12 tons/ha to meet the demand of estimated 8.8 billion people in 2035 is posing a major challenge. Wild relatives of rice contain some novel genes which can help in improving rice yield. Spikelet per panicle (SPP) is a valuable trait for determining yield potential in rice. In this study, a major QTL for increasing SPP has been identified, mapped,...
Dwarf plant height and tillering ability are two of the most important agronomic traits that determine the plant architecture, and have profound influence on grain yield in rice. To understand the molecular mechanism controlling these two traits, an EMS-induced recessive dwarf and increased tillering1 (dit1) mutant was characterized. The mutant showed proportionate reduction in each internode as compared...
Triticum monococcum, the diploid A genome species, harbours enormous variability for resistance to biotic stresses. A spring type T. monococcum acc. 14087 was found to be resistant to Heterodera avenae (cereal cyst nematode, CCN). A recombinant inbred line population (RIL) developed by crossing this accession with a CCN susceptible T. boeoticum acc. 5088 was used for studying the inheritance...
