Variation of a major facilitator superfamily gene contributes to differential cadmium accumulation between rice subspecies

Variation of a major facilitator superfamily gene contributes to differential cadmium accumulation between rice subspecies

Grain of indica rice accumulates more toxic cadmium (Cd) than japonica, but the underlying genetic basis is unclear. Here, the authors show that natural variation of OsCd1 contributes to divergence in grain Cd accumulation and transferring japonica allele to indica rice leads to reduced Cd accumulat...
