IRRI's support for partners includes initial
breeding of the Golden
Rice trait into selected varieties, which
involves laboratory work, greenhouse tests, and some preliminary field evaluation.
... this new technology to train researchers in remote sensing to capture information, identify improvements for genotypes of
rice or other crops, and reduce the cost and time frames of the research processes
involved in plant
breeding.
These resources comprise a «
rice diversity research platform» that is widely used the international
rice research community to understand the genetic basis of complex traits, to investigate molecular mechanisms
involved in key forms of stress tolerance, and to efficiently utilize natural variation to
breed highly productive
rice varieties for the future that are more nutritious, resource - use efficient, and stress tolerant than those we currently grow.
