INTRODUCTION
Expression profile of rice Hsp genes under anoxic stress
, “Expression profile of rice Hsp genes under anoxic stress”, vol. 15, p. -, 2016.
Although flooding is one of the most important environmental stresses worldwide, not all plant species are intolerant to its effects. Species from semi-aquatic environments, such as rice, have the capacity to cope with flooding stress. Heat-shock proteins (Hsps) are thought to contribute to cellular homeostasis under both optimal and adverse growth conditions. Studies of gene expression in plants exposed to low levels of oxygen revealed the up-regulation of Hsp genes.
Resistance of upland-rice lines to root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita
, “Resistance of upland-rice lines to root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita”, vol. 14, pp. 17384-17390, 2015.
Despite the benefits of crop rotation, occurrence of nematodes is a common problem for almost all crops within the Cerrado biome, especially for rice. The use of resistant cultivars is one of the main methods for control of nematodes. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the reaction of 36 upland-rice lines, with desirable agronomic characteristics, according to their resistance to root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne incognita). The experimental design was entirely randomized with four replications. Each plot of land consisted of two rice plants in a 3-L vase.
Genetic diversity in mutated and non-mutated rice varieties
, “Genetic diversity in mutated and non-mutated rice varieties”, vol. 14, pp. 17109-17123, 2015.
We studied the genetic variability due to mutation induced by γ-rays (10, 15, and 20 Kr) on various traits of twelve rice genotypes. Mutated and non-mutated seeds were sown in the field between July 2013 and 2014 using a split plot design. Yield and yield-related trait data was recorded, which showed significant (P < 0.05) genotypic and irradiation effects. Gamma radiation exerted non-significant effects on the panicle length of all plants, indicating the uniformity of performance of this character at different radiation levels.
