Evaluation of rice wild relatives as a source of traits for adaptation to iron toxicity and enhanced grain quality

Rice wild relatives (RWR) constitute an extended gene pool that can be tapped for the breeding of novel rice varieties adapted to abiotic stresses such as iron (Fe) toxicity. Therefore, we screened 75 Oryza genotypes including 16 domesticated O. sativas, one O. glaberrima, and 58 RWR representing 21 species, for... Show more
