Rice straw is always regarded as a by-product of rice production, but it could be a significant energy source for ruminant animals. Knowledge of the genetic variation and genetic architecture of cell wall traits will facilitate rice breeders by improving relevant traits through selective breeding
Rice cultivar "Weiyou916" (Oryza sativa L. ssp. Indica) were cultured with control (10 mM NO3-) and nitrate deficient solution (0 mM NO3-) for four weeks. Nitrogen (N) deficiency significantly decreased the content of N and P, dry weight (DW) of the shoots and roots, but increased the ratio of root
Lignin encrusts lignocellulose polysaccharides, and has long been considered an obstacle for the efficient use of polysaccharides during processes such as pulping and bioethanol fermentation. However, lignin is also a potential feedstock for aromatic products and is an important by-product of
CONCLUSIONS
Non-optimal ammonium levels significantly alter root architecture, anatomy and root permeabilities for water and nutrient ions. Higher ammonium levels induced strong apoplastic barriers whereas it was opposite for lower levels. Application of nitrogen fertilizer increases crop
The root cell wall is the first and primary target of aluminium (Al) toxicity. Monocots such as rice can accumulate appreciated levels of hydroxycinammic acids (HCAs) to modify and cross-link hemicellulose and/or lignin of the cell wall. Nevertheless, it is unclear whether this HCAs-mediated
Tropospheric ozone causes various negative effects on plants and affects the yield and quality of agricultural crops. Here, we report a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in rice (Oryza sativa L.) to determine candidate loci associated with ozone tolerance. A diversity panel consisting of 328
To elucidate the resistance mechanisms of the rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivar 'Milyang 44' against rice stink bugs, we compared the number of stylet sheaths, husk perforations, and feeding marks on the surface of the grains caused by Leptocorisa chinensis and Cletus punctiger on
In the present study, 36 Asian rice cultivars/landraces were evaluated against M. graminicola under in vitro conditions using soilless Pluronic gel medium. The cultivars/genotypes Phule Radha, EK 70, LK 248 and Khalibagh showed significantly reduced nematode infection, endoparasitic
Potential adverse effects of nanoplastics (NPs) on marine organisms have received increased attention in recent years. In contrast, few data are available on terrestrial plants, especially on the mechanisms for transport of NPs in plants and phytotoxicity (at both phenotypic and molecular levels) of
Lodging in crops seriously restricts plant growth and grain production. The genetic modification of cell walls to enhance plant mechanical strength has been suggested as a promising approach toward improving lodging resistance. However, because of the complexity of the plant cell wall, the exact
Rice plants (Oryza sativa L. var. Bluebonnet 50) metabolize the herbicide 3',4'-dichloropropionanilide to 3,4-dichloroaniline, which in turn conjugates with carbohydrates. Soluble aniline-carbohydrate complexes account for only a small fraction of the hydrolyzed 3',4'-dichloropropionanilide. The
Lodging is a phenomenon that affects most of the cereal crops including rice, Oryza sativa. This is due to the fragile nature of herbaceous plants whose stems are non-woody, thus affecting its ability to grow upright. Silicon (Si), a beneficial nutrient is often used to toughen and protect plants
The radial translocation of cadmium (Cd) from the root to the shoot is one of the major processes affecting Cd accumulation in rice (Oryza sativa L.) grains, but few studies have focused on Cd apoplastic transport in rice. The aim of this study was to determine how apoplastic barriers affect Cd
Current climate and land-use changes affect regional and global cycles of silicon (Si), with yet uncertain consequences for ecosystems. The key role of Si in marine ecology by controlling algae growth is well recognized but research on terrestrial ecosystems neglected Si since not considered an
Plant tissues that require structural rigidity synthesize a thick, strong secondary cell wall of lignin, cellulose and hemicelluloses in a complicated bridged structure. Master regulators of secondary wall synthesis were identified in dicots, and orthologs of these regulators have been identified in
