Highlight
qEMF3, a novel QTL for the early-morning flowering trait to mitigate heat-induced spikelet sterility at flowering in rice, was identified using a wild rice, Oryza officinalis, as a genetic resource.
qTSN12.1 and qTSN12.2 genes for total spikelet number per panicle were detected, qTSN12.2 on rice chromosome 12. Grain yield of a near-isogenic line carrying fine-mapped qTSN12.2 was increased by 18–36%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
