Rice is a staple crop for half the world's population, which is expected to grow by 3 billion
over the next 30 years. It is also a key model for studying the genomics of agroecosystems …

Background Linking phenotypes and genotypes to identify genetic architectures that
regulate important traits is crucial for plant breeding and the development of plant genomics …

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are a powerful tool for plant image analysis, but
challenges remain in making them more accessible to researchers without a machine …

Elucidating the genetic control of rooting behavior under water-deficit stress is essential to
breed climate-robust rice (Oryza sativa) cultivars. Using a diverse panel of 274 indica …

It was suggested that the most effective way to improve rice grain yield is to increase the
grain number per panicle (GN) through the breeding practice in recent decades. GN is a …

There is a need to accelerate crop improvement by introducing alleles conferring host plant
resistance, abiotic stress adaptation, and high yield potential. Elite cultivars, landraces and …

The development of nutrient-use efficient rice lines is a priority amidst the changing climate
and depleting resources viz., water, land, and labor for achieving sustainability in rice …

Genetically diverse plant germplasm stored in ex-situ genebanks are excellent resources for
breeding new high yielding and sustainable crop varieties to ensure future food security …

This study aimed to understand the response of photosynthesis and growth to e‐CO2
conditions (800 vs. 400 μmol mol− 1) of rice genotypes differing in source–sink …

Drought-stressed plants display reduced stomatal conductance, which results in increased
leaf temperature by limiting transpiration. In this study, thermal imaging was used to quantify …
