Genebanks conserve worldwide crop genetic diversity in systematically assembled and
maintained ex situ collections for use by plant breeders and geneticists to improve the …

The narrow genetic base of US rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars poses a challenge for long‐
term improvements of yield and other agronomic traits. Molecular marker analysis can be …

Knowledge of genetic diversity and relationships among global germplasms of rice collected
by the USDA since 1866 is critical for utilization, conservation, and management of the …

International genebanks have a collection of over 760 K conserved accessions of various
plants, most of these accessions are within the multi-lateral system governed by the …

Cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) is structured into five genetic groups, indica, aus, tropical
japonica, temperate japonica and aromatic. Genetic characterization of rice germplasm …

Molecular tools and knowledge of crop germplasm are vital for their effective utilization. In
this study, we developed 40,866 high-quality and well distributed SNPs for a rice mini-core …

Understanding the genetic variation for yield‐related traits in tropical japonica rice (Oryza
sativa L.) is extremely important to US rice breeding because most US rice is from this …

The objectives of this study were to determine the genetic structure of 242 accessions from
the EMBRAPA Rice Core Collection (ERiCC), to create a mini-core collection and to develop …

A diverse collection of 409 Asian rice (Oryza sativa L.) accessions originating from 79
countries was fingerprinted with 36 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and evaluated …

A rice diversity research set of germplasm (RDRS) was developed based on a genome-wide
RFLP polymorphism survey of 332 accessions of cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.). The …
