IRRI, the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS) and BGI-Shenzhen have undertaken re-sequencing of an extensive collection of rice genetic resources to uncover allelic variation. Three thousand and twenty-four types of rice coming from the International Rice Gene Bank (IRG), the China ...
Over 90 percent of the world's rice is eaten in the Asia-Pacific region, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. However, eating rice can increase the risk of developing health problems, such as diabetes(糖尿病). Now, scientists in the Philippines have ...
Yan for kindly providing 148 varieties from a mini-core subset of the US Department of Agriculture rice gene bank. This work was supported by the Major State Basic Research Development Program of China (973 Program) (number 2013CB127001), the National High Technology R&D Program of China (863...
For example, we estimate that sequencing the rest of the gene bank of the International Rice Research Institute may enable the identification of >27 million additional SNPs (Extended Data Fig. 1d). The next challenge will be to examine associations of the 3K-RG genetic variation with ...
characterized rice genes and ~ 6000 members of different gene families were collected in funRiceGenes, accounting for 22.3% of the 39,045 annotated protein-coding genes in the rice genome. Here, we summarized the update of the funRiceGenes database with new data and new features in the ...
The study was laid out in a completely randomized design, with 3 replicates per treatment. The size of the rice paddy plot was 3335 m2 (66.7 m × 50 m). We obtained 180 fertile Jinding duck eggs from the National Waterfowl Gene Bank, Taizhou, China (Luo et al., 2019). The ...
Weedy rice is a close relative of cultivated rice that devastates rice productivity worldwide. In the southern United States, two distinct strains have been historically predominant, but the 21st century introduction of hybrid rice and herbicide resistan
Now, around 537 million people around the world have diabetes, with over 60 percent of them living in Asia. This number is expected to r___ 783 million by 2045.To fight this problem, researchers in the Philippines have worked with many global b___. From the large rice gene bank, they...
Asian rice (Oryza sativa) is a staple cereal crop that has played an essential role in feeding much of the world for millennia1,2. Since the world population is expected to increase to approximately 10 billion by 2060–20703, the rice community is searching for novel ways to breed new vari...
Prior studies had shown that the NBS-LRR gene family is constitutively negatively regulated [63–66] and gets activated in the presence of pathogens through a mechanism that is not clearly understood. However, their activation needs to be precise (in space and time) for resistance to ensue. ...
