Under a grant from the Global Diversity Trust, we are using genomic tools to develop inter-specific introgression lines, novel genetic resources that are derived from crosses between diverse wild relatives and elite, high yielding varieties of both indica and
japonica rice.
Although the grains of the multi-nutrient rice lines have more beta - carotene than the original
japonica rice variety, depending on the lines the beta - carotene content can be ten-fold lower than in Golden Rice 2, the improved variant of Golden Rice.
Most of the rice grown in the U.S. is

IRRI breeders had earlier observed traits related to higher yield potential — such as large panicles, large leaves, a vigorous root system, and thick stems — in several Indonesian tropical
japonica rice varieties.
