Genetic mutagenesis can create novel alleles that do not exist in nature germplasms and has been widely used for the improvement of crop plants. Rice blast caused by Magnaporthe oryzae is one of the most destructive disease for rice production. For now, limited mutation-derived varieties associated with blast resistance were reported. In this study, a rice TNG67 mutant pool, developed by using sodium...
Key message Our results not only provide a comprehensive overview of the starch biosynthetic pathway in the developing endosperm but also reveal some important protein markers that regulate the synthesis of starch. Abstract In human diets, rice (Oryza sativa L.) is an important source of starch, a substantial amount of which is accumulated in developing endosperm. A better understanding of the complicated...
In the context of increased competition for water, growing more rice with less water will be one of the major challenges of the 21st century. This paper examines water savings and issues of scale in water productivity. The main objective is to understand if and how field-scale interventions scale up to subbasin-scale water savings in the Zhanghe Irrigation District (ZID) in Hubei Province, central...
