Power of conventional rice breeding
With the decreasing trend in rice consumption in Japan, breeding for new types of rice plant, which is a major responsibility of breeders has also become a political issue. The need for restoring Japanese agriculture and maintaining self-sufficiency in rice production has always been tightly linked to economic partnership agreements and trade liberalization. As a result, rice production has bee...
متن کاملRice Breeding
This chapter deals with breeding aspects of one of the most important crops for food security in the world. Initially it shows how diverse rice is with 22 species, different levels of ploidy and six diversity groups. The choice of parents for crossing, when having such wide genetic diversity available, requires careful characterization and evaluation of the germplasm as well as good knowledge a...
متن کاملStudy of zoonotic bacteria in conventional laboratory mice breeding colonies
To investigate the status of conventional laboratory mice colonies for zoonotic bacteria, three mice colonies, NIH, NMRI and Balb/c strains of Razi institute were studied for five zoonotic bacteria including Pasteurella pneumotropica, Salmonella typhimurium, Salmonella enteritidis, Streptobacillus moniliformis, Streptococcus Pneumonia. Study populations were 74 mice of premature, mature and pos...
متن کاملBreeding high-yielding drought-tolerant rice: genetic variations and conventional and molecular approaches
The increased occurrence and severity of drought stress have led to a high yield decline in rice in recent years in drought-affected areas. Drought research at the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) over the past decade has concentrated on direct selection for grain yield under drought. This approach has led to the successful development and release of 17 high-yielding drought-toleran...
متن کاملDoubled Haploids versus Conventional Breeding in CIMMYT Wheat Breeding Programs
Doubled haploid (DH) technology has been used in breeding programs for several decades and is currently the method of choice in a number of crop species, including barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), maize (Zea mays L.), and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). In this study we investigated via computer simulation the benefit of using DHs compared with the conventional wheat bre...
