Background Adaptations to different habitats across the globe and consequent genetic
variation within rice have resulted in more than 120,000 diverse accessions including …

Identification of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for grain mineral elements can assist in faster
and more precise development of micronutrient dense rice varieties through marker-assisted …

In Venezuela, pedigree analyses indicate that the rice varieties currently under cultivation
are closely related. Effective breeding programs, based on knowledge of the genetic …

Abstract Advanced backcross QTL (AB-QTL) analysis was carried out in two Oryza nivara-
derived BC 2 F 2 populations. For nine traits, we identified 28 QTL in population 1, and 26 …

Efficient assessment of genetic diversity is important for conservation and utilization of
genetic resources. We sought to assess the ability of inter simple sequence repeats (ISSRs) …

The appearance and cooking quality of rice determine its acceptability and price to a large
extent. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for 12 grain quality traits were mapped in 2 mapping …

Backcross inbred lines (BILs) derived from elite x wild crosses are very useful for basic
studies and breeding. The aim of this study was to map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) …

This study aimed to assess the diversity of Moringa oleifera and Moringa peregrina in Saudi
Arabia. Seven genotypes per species were characterized morphologically using 14 …

Inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) analysis, using 14 primers was performed to estimate
genetic diversity among 27 landraces of Hassawi rice growing in Al-Ahsa region of Saudi …

Crop wild relatives of rice (Oryza sativa L.) are an important reservoir of genes for
broadening the genetic base of commercial varieties. India is the centre of genetic diversity …
