Molecular Cytological Characterization of Somatic Variation in Rice Aneuploids
Aneuploids cannot be stably preserved by sexual propagation, though they can maintain their genetic identity by asexual propagation. However, it is possible for somaclonal variation to occur during asexual pro...

Diversification of the Waxy Gene is Closely Related to Variations in Rice Eating and Cooking Quality
The Wx gene encoding granule-bound starch synthase is responsible for the biosynthesis of amylose, which plays an important role in determining rice eating and cooking quality. However, the functional evaluation ...

Molecular map** of two semidwarf genes in an indica rice variety Aitaiyin3 (Oryza sativa L.)
Genetic analysis established that Aitaiyin3, a dwarf rice variety derived from a semidwarf cultivar Taiyin1, carries two recessive semidwarf genes. By using simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers, we mapped the ...
