Abstract: Submergence is a widespread problem of rice production, especially in low-lying areas in South and Southeast Asia. Despite the success of Sub1 mega varieties, repeated instances of prolonged and severe flooding in stress-prone areas suggests… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Biogenesis of messenger RNA is critically influenced by the phosphorylation state of the carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) in the largest RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) subunit. Several kinases and phosphatases are required to maintain proper CTD… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12284-018-0227-0
Abstract: BackgroundMarker-assisted breeding will move forward from introgressing single/multiple genes governing a single trait to multiple genes governing multiple traits to combat emerging biotic and abiotic stresses related to climate change and to enhance rice productivity.… read more here.
