Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Time of Flooding Occurrence is Critical for Yield Production in Rice and Vary in a Genotype-Dependent MannerJenjira Mongon, Arom Jantasorn, Prateep Oupkaew et al.Flash floods occur in rainfed lowland and flood-prone areas and have a profound incidence on crop yield, which is tightly linked to worldwide food insecurity. The most flooding-threatened crop is rice. Under this condition, rice undergoes anoxic and post-anoxic shock that affects its growth, development capacity and ultimately causes an important grain yield loss. Therefore, the introduction of submergence-tolerant varieties … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2017 · 8,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValidation of SSR markers associated with Submergence Tolerance in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)Kirill V. Azarin, Alexander V. Usatov, Andrey V. Alabushev et al.The present work is devoted to the validation of SSR markers associated with submergence tolerance (Sub1A) QTLs in rice. It was shown that only microsatellite markers RM 7481 differentiates donor lines and recipient variety. Based upon the results of DNA analysis with the marker of the RM 7481 of the F2-plants, the 14 homozygotes by the locus Sub1A, 40 samples … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2016 · 7,634 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of In Vitro Nitrogen Nutrition to Phalaenopsis deliciosa Seedling GrowthChieh Wean Choong, Chin Hao Lim, Zherui Xiong, Siew Mee ChoongIn a continuous effort to conserve Phalaenopsis species, the optimization of a previously designed defined medium was carried out to understand the effect of in vitro nitrogen nutrition on Phalaenopsis deliciosa Rchb.f. In order not to alter the nutrient balance, macronutrient level instead of solely Nitrogen (N) was adjusted. Seedlings were obtained from in vitro germination and randomly inoculated on … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2015 · 7,824 accessesView PDFCite
