Genome sequencing of rice subspecies and genetic analysis of recombinant lines reveals regional yield- and quality-associated loci

Abstract Background Two of the most widely cultivated rice strains are Oryza sativa indica and O. sativa japonica, and understanding the genetic basis of their agronomic traits is of importance for crop production. These two species are highly distinct in terms of geographical distribution and morph...
