Higher yields of rice have always been a predominant goal in rice breeding techniques.
However, the inheritances of rice yield and its components are still unknown, and no …

Breeding of high-yielding rice is crucial for meeting the food demand of the increasing world
population. New technologies have facilitated identification of genes involved in quantitative …

1000-Grain weight and spikelet number per panicle are two important components for rice
grain yield. In our previous study, eight quantitative trait loci (QTLs) conferring spikelet …

The thousand-grain weight and spikelets per panicle directly contribute to rice yield.
Heading date and plant height also greatly influence the yield. Dissection of genetic bases …

Grain yield in rice is a complex trait multiplicatively determined by its three component traits:
number of panicles, number of grains per panicle, and grain weight; all of which are typical …

Improvement of rice grain yield (YD) is an important goal in rice breeding. YD is determined
by its related traits such as spikelet fertility (SF), 1,000-grain weight (TGW), and the number …

Improvements of rice (Oryza sativa L.) grain yield and protein content are important breeding
objectives. Two hundred forty recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between …

A set of rice (Oryza sativa L.) recombinant inbred lines from a cross between Zhenshan 97
(indica) and HR5 (indica) was planted for four different growing seasons in two locations at …

Assessing genetic diversity and development of a core set of elite breeding lines is a
prerequisite for selective hybridization programes intended to improve the yield potential in …

Rice yield potentiality has been enhanced much after incorporating semi-dwarf trait in rice,
which has led to the Green Revolution worldwide, but afterward, yield potentiality has …
