Natural variation at qHd1 affects heading date acceleration at high temperatures with pleiotropism for yield traits in rice

Abstract Background Rice is highly sensitive to temperature fluctuations. Recently, the frequent occurrence of high temperature stress has heavily influenced rice production. Proper heading date in specific environmental conditions could ensure high grain yield. Rice heading greatly depends on the a...
