Rice hybrid mimics have stable yields equivalent to those of the F1 hybrid and suggest a basis for hybrid vigour
We have developed long term stable high yielding rice lines, Hybrid Mimics, from commercial hybrids. The vigour of the Mimic and the hybrid are developmental changes. These Mimics could substitute for hybrid s...
