Submergence stress represents a major obstacle limiting the application of direct seeding in
rice cultivation. Under flooding conditions, coleoptile elongation can function as an escape …

As sessile organisms, flooding/submergence is one of the major abiotic stresses for higher
plants, with deleterious effects on their growth and survival. Therefore …

Natural and man-made ecosystems worldwide are subjected to flooding, which is a form of
environmental stress. Genetic variability in the plant response to flooding involves variations …

The success of rice (Oryza sativa L.) germination and survival under submerged conditions
is mainly determined by the rapid growth of the coleoptile to reach the water surface …

The wide natural variation present in rice is an important source of genes to facilitate stress
tolerance breeding. However, identification of candidate genes from RNA-Seq studies is …

Rice is one of most important crops in the world and is also the most advanced crop for
breeding among cereal crops. Generally, rice is grown in lowland and flood-prone areas …

Background Rice is one of the most important cereals consumed worldwide. Two major
abiotic factors affecting rice plants in different growth stages are flooding stress and cold …

Abstract North Eastern part of India such as Assam is inundated by flood every year where
the farmers are forced to grow the traditional tall deep-water rice. Genetic improvement of …

Climate change has intensified food security challenges, especially in Africa, where a
significant portion of produce is reliant on smallholder farmers in rainfed conditions …

Wetland plants, including rice (Oryza spp.), have developed multiple functional adaptive
traits to survive soil flooding, partial submergence or even complete submergence. In …
