Book Growth and Productivity of Irrigated Rice  oryza Sativa L   for a Tropical High Altitude Environment in Rwanda

Download or read book Growth and Productivity of Irrigated Rice oryza Sativa L for a Tropical High Altitude Environment in Rwanda written by Elie Rene Gasore and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yield components, grain yield, biomass and plant N accumulation, and N fertilizer responses of irrigated rice (Oryza sativa, L.) were evaluated for a tropical inland valley environment in the high altitudes in Rwanda. Effects were measured for nitrogen (N) fertilizer rate (0, 60, 90,120,150,180 kg N ha-1), season, growth stage and cultivar of different subspecies and plant types during 2012 dry season (DS) and 2013 wet season (WS) at Cyili Rice Research Farm (1380 m above sea level). Variations in irradiance (17.2+/- 0.32 MJ m-2 day-1 in DS and 9.4 +/- 0.66 MJ m-2 day-1in WS) were linked to seasonal differences in biomass and closely related to N responses, yield components and the grain yields which were greater in the DS (9.0 t ha-1) than in the WS (5.3 t ha-1). Total plant N uptake was in the same range (200 to 250 kg N ha-1) for both seasons at maturity. Grain yields were highly correlated (r2 = 0.89) to yield components and mostly with the number of spikelets per panicle (r2 = 0.70) and spikelets per m2 (r2 = 0.80). In most cases, yield components were equivalent or greater to the potential under irrigated lowlands in the tropics of Asia and the highest farm yields (8 to 10 t ha-1) in the temperate. Rice genotypes of Indica x Japonica subspecies combinations were overall greater in yield, harvest index and in important yield components. Crop growth rate (CGR) over seasons and cultivars was 11g m-2 day-1 at maturity. The average total crop duration of 145 days may be considered as the current optimal for achieving the yield potential obtained in the irrigated lowlands of the tropics in Asia. Responses to N fertilizer addition were generally minimal with most measured attributes maximized when the lowest N rate of only 60 kg N ha-1 was applied. This suggested a large contribution from the native soil N reserves linked to ample amounts of total soil N (2.80 +/- 0.34 g kg soil-1). The Indica x Japonica combinations may represent a cultivar improvement strategy for greater adaptation and grain yield and quality in Rwanda.

Book Phenotypic and Gene Expression Analysis of Diverse Rice Genotypes in Response to Drought

Download or read book Phenotypic and Gene Expression Analysis of Diverse Rice Genotypes in Response to Drought written by Miranti Rahmaningsih and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drought is one of the most limiting factors for rice (Oryza sativa L.) growth and development with vegetative and reproductive stages the most sensitive and distinct phases. During the vegetative stage, drought can cause reduction in growth and biomass accumulation. Moreover, water stress at reproductive stage can reduce yield significantly. Plants are protected against drought by three different mechanisms: drought avoidance, drought tolerance, and drought escape. An integrated approach combining physiology, breeding, and genomics could be an effective way to characterize and mitigate this problem. The objectives of this research were to (1) screen a diverse set of rice genotypes at both vegetative and reproductive stages for drought response; (2) characterize the genetic differences in mechanisms of drought response conferring drought stress resistance; and (3) study the expression patterns of genes that contribute to yield under water stress conditions. At the vegetative stage, drought was applied by withholding water at 50% of the field capacity for ten days, while in the reproductive stage drought was given at pre-anthesis for three to four days. Results from the first study showed that the diverse genotypes exhibit different drought resistance mechanisms. Padi Tarab Arab and N22 exhibit drought avoidance and tolerance mechanisms while GPNO 25912 exhibits a tolerance mechanism. Gene expression analysis using RNA from plants early after drought stress identified clear differences between resistant and sensitive genotypes. The resistant genotypes showed a high induction in the relative expression of drought stress genes under drought compared to control, while the three sensitive genotypes showed low, no, late, or inconsistent induction in expression. Results from the second study demonstrated that between the two types of samples for gene expression analysis in four different genotypes, the inflorescence gives a higher correlation with phenotypic measurements than the flag leaf during reproductive stage. Meanwhile, both invertase genes and transcription factors confer positive effects to drought resistance particularly in relation to number of grain per panicle and panicle length.

Book Rice Improvement

Download or read book Rice Improvement written by Jauhar Ali and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-05-05 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is open access under a CC BY 4.0 license. By 2050, human population is expected to reach 9.7 billion. The demand for increased food production needs to be met from ever reducing resources of land, water and other environmental constraints. Rice remains the staple food source for a majority of the global populations, but especially in Asia where ninety percent of rice is grown and consumed. Climate change continues to impose abiotic and biotic stresses that curtail rice quality and yields. Researchers have been challenged to provide innovative solutions to maintain, or even increase, rice production. Amongst them, the ‘green super rice’ breeding strategy has been successful for leading the development and release of multiple abiotic and biotic stress tolerant rice varieties. Recent advances in plant molecular biology and biotechnologies have led to the identification of stress responsive genes and signaling pathways, which open up new paradigms to augment rice productivity. Accordingly, transcription factors, protein kinases and enzymes for generating protective metabolites and proteins all contribute to an intricate network of events that guard and maintain cellular integrity. In addition, various quantitative trait loci associated with elevated stress tolerance have been cloned, resulting in the detection of novel genes for biotic and abiotic stress resistance. Mechanistic understanding of the genetic basis of traits, such as N and P use, is allowing rice researchers to engineer nutrient-efficient rice varieties, which would result in higher yields with lower inputs. Likewise, the research in micronutrients biosynthesis opens doors to genetic engineering of metabolic pathways to enhance micronutrients production. With third generation sequencing techniques on the horizon, exciting progress can be expected to vastly improve molecular markers for gene-trait associations forecast with increasing accuracy. This book emphasizes on the areas of rice science that attempt to overcome the foremost limitations in rice production. Our intention is to highlight research advances in the fields of physiology, molecular breeding and genetics, with a special focus on increasing productivity, improving biotic and abiotic stress tolerance and nutritional quality of rice.
