Genome-Wide Association Study Identified Novel Candidate Loci/Genes Affecting Lodging Resistance in Rice

Lodging reduces rice yield, but increasing lodging resistance (LR) usually limits yield potential. Stem strength and leaf type are major traits related to LR and yield, respectively. Hence, understanding the genetic basis of stem strength and leaf type is of help to reduce lodging and increase yield...
