Rice is an important diet source for the majority of the world's population, and meeting the
growing need for rice requires significant improvements at the production level. Hybrid rice …

Developing high-yielding rice genotypes is decisive to ensure global food security with
current population growth and the threat of environmental pressures. Cytoplasmic male …

This study was carried out using 22 promising restorer lines of rice and their parental lines to
study genetic variability and genetic advance for yield and yield-associated grain quality …

Cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) provides an irreplaceable strategy for commercial
exploitation of heterosis and producing high-yielding hybrid rice. The exogenous application …

In rice, cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) represents an irreplaceable strategy for producing
high-yielding hybrid rice based on the commercial exploitation of heterosis. Thereupon …

Uppermost internode length (UIL) and panicle exsertion are two important traits that
contribute significantly to increased yield in rice. The present study was conducted using …

Hybrid rice seed production predominantly relies on the pollen ability of restorer lines and
the stigma properties of the cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) lines. Improving the pollen ability …

Developing high-yielding hybrid rice varieties is much needed to ensure food security to
meet the requirement of the increasing population across the world. Cytoplasmic male …

Black rice generally has problems in cultivation such as relatively long plant life, high
habitus and low productivity. Plant breeders use several methods in hybridization activities …
