Molecular Research in Rice

Franco Silveira

The molecular genetic basis of agronomical important traits in rice to develop novel rice cultivars showing good agronomic performance and strong climate resilience in the future, we have to identify further important genes, elucidate their molecular functions, and design desirable genotypes based on individual and interaction effects of those genes. In addition to the traits described in the previous and present Special Issues, there are many other agronomical important traits that should be explored using molecular genetics and biological research. In addition, the wide genetic diversity that exists in rice genetic resources including wild rice species (e.g., Oryza rufipogon Griff.) has not been fully exploited in genetic analysis and breeding programs.
