Seed treatment is an important practice for reducing pathogens. The microbiolization technique has been used to provide economic and environmental benefits, starting with the selection of microorganisms and the identification of their mechanisms of action. In this sense, Bacillus sp. has stood out, having the capacity to promote growth and phytopat...
Improving plant performance in salinity-prone conditions is a significant challenge in breeding programs. Genomic selection is currently integrated into many plant breeding programs as a tool for increasing selection intensity and precision for complex traits and for reducing breeding cycle length. A rice reference panel (RP) of 241 Oryza sativa L....
These data correspond to the phenotypic and genomic datafiles used for the paper entitled "Optimization of multi-generation multi-location genomic prediction models for recurrent genomic selection in an upland rice population"
Cookies are a popular snack worldwide, but the presence of gluten in most wheat-based cookies poses problems for people with gluten intolerance. Furthermore, gluten-free products are often deficient in nutraceuticals. This study investigated the potential of two traditional Indian rice landraces, Kalanamak and Chak-hao, as alternative cereals for p...
Understanding the genetic diversity and population structure of rice is crucial for breeding programs, conservation efforts, and the development of sustainable agricultural practices. This study aimed to assess the genetic diversity and population structure of 94 rice (Oryza sativa L.) genotypes from the Democratic Republic of Congo using a set of ...
In irrigated rice fields, plant-mediated transfer of CH4 from submerged soils to the atmosphere raise the possibility of genotypic differences in CH4 emissions. Previous research has been contradictory, and varietal differences in rice CH4 emissions in Latin America have not been examined. A field experiment in Colombia tested whether irrigated ric...
In this study, two experiments were conducted to evaluate the genotypic variation of rice root system distribution and root activity in response to short-term drought conditions. Seven rice genotypes were used, of which one (Rexmont) showed the greatest reduction in shoot biomass under drought, and two (Swarna and KDML105) showed the least reductio...
Wild relatives of cultivated rice (Oryza sativa) belonging to the genus Oryza are regarded as ‘genetic reservoirs’ for rice improvement. Their genes are transferable to cultivated rice through crossing and they have been contributing significantly to rice variety improvement by introgression of their diverse valuable traits, especially biotic stres...
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) have long been recognised to form a mutually beneficial symbiosis with over 80% of land plants present today. The symbiosis provides an integral link to mineral nutrients in the soil (Bago et al., 2000; Jakobsen & Rosendahl, 1990; Smith & Read, 2008) and this has led to increasing interest in the potential for use...
