genetic diversity and structure in hill rice (oryza sativa l.) landraces from the north-eastern himalayas of india. | hill rices (oryza sativa l.) are direct seeded rices grown on hill slopes of different gradients. these landraces have evolved under rainfed and harsh environmental conditions and may possess genes governing adaptation traits such as tolerance to cold and moisture stress. in this study, 64 hill rice landraces were collected from the state of arunachal pradesh of north-eastern region of india, and assessed by agro-morphological variability and microsatellite markers polymorphism. our aim was to u ... | 2016 | 27412613 |
genetic diversity and population structure in aromatic and quality rice (oryza sativa l.) landraces from north-eastern india. | the north-eastern (ne) india, comprising of arunachal pradesh, assam, manipur, meghalaya, mizoram, nagaland, sikkim and tripura, possess diverse array of locally adapted non-basmati aromatic germplasm. the germplasm collections from this region could serve as valuable resources in breeding for abiotic stress tolerance, grain yield and cooking/eating quality. to utilize such collections, however, breeders need information about the extent and distribution of genetic diversity present within colle ... | 2015 | 26067999 |
