Dongxiang wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.) germplasm is a precious resource for the improvement of agronomic traits in rice. Rice seeds also harbor a diverse endophytic bacterial community, and their interactions with their hosts and each other can...
Panicle length (PL) is an important trait closely related to rice yield. More than 200 quantitative trait loci (QTL) for PL have been identified, but only a few can be used for breeding. Dongxiang wild rice contains many excellent genes, and mining f...
Rice is sensitive to high temperatures at the seedling stage. In the present study, a combined analysis of transcriptome and metabolome was performed on a heat-resistant accession, DY80, from Dongxiang wild rice and a heat-sensitive variety, R974, un...
Soil salinization severely restricts rice growth and global grain production, posing a serious threat to food security. Dongxiang wild rice serves as an important genetic resource for improving salt tolerance in rice. In this study, a backcross inbre...
The DUF26 domain-containing protein is an extracellular structural protein, which plays an important role in signal transduction. Dongxiang wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.) is the northern-most common wild rice in China. Using domain analysis, 85 D...
Dongxiang wild rice (DXWR) is one of the most valuable germplasm resources of rice. It is important to conserve the genetic diversity and uncover the population differentiation of DXWR. In this study, we analyzed the genetic diversity and population...
Rice, a cold-sensitive crop, is a staple food for more than 50% of the world’s population. Low temperature severely compromises the growth of rice and challenges China’s food safety. Dongxiang wild rice (DXWR) is the most northerly common...
The submergence tolerance of rice is a key factor in promoting rice direct seeding technology and resisting flood disasters. Dongxiang wild rice (DXWR) has strong submergence tolerance, but its genetic basis is still unclear. Here, we report quantita...
Phosphorus (P) deficiency tolerance in rice is a complex character controlled by polygenes. Through proteomics analysis, we could find more low P tolerance related proteins in unique P-deficiency tolerance germplasm Dongxiang wild rice (Oryza Rufipog...
The improvement of grain yield, quality, and resistance can be achieved through the utilization of heterosis. The combination of cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) and fertility restoration (Rf) gene(s) greatly facilitates the commercial development of...
Dongxiang wild rice (DXWR, Oryza rufipogon Griff.), the northernmost known wild rice species, exhibits exceptional tolerance to combined low-temperature and anaerobic stress during seed germination, providing a unique model for understanding plant ad...
SPX-domain proteins (small proteins with only the SPX domain) have been proven to be involved in phosphate-related signal transduction and regulation pathways. Except for OsSPX1 research showing that it plays a role in the process of rice adaptation...
Direct-seeded rice (DSR) cultivation is an effective and important way to resolve agricultural labor scarcity, water scarcity and high production cost issues. Mesocotyl elongation (ME) is the main driver of the rapid emergence of rice seedlings from...
Dongxiang wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.) (DXWR) has strong seed storability and identifying its elite gene resources may facilitate genetic improvements in rice seed storability. In this study, we developed two backcross inbred lines (BILs) popul...
Cold and salt stresses are major environmental factors that constrain rice production. Understanding their mechanisms is important to enhance cold and salt stress tolerance in rice. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs with only 21&ndash...
Rice (Oryza sativa) is a staple food for more than half of the world’s population, and its production is critical for global food security. Moreover, rice yield decreases when exposed to abiotic stresses, such as salinity, which is one of the m...
Three new helvolic acid derivatives (named sarocladilactone A (1), sarocladilactone B (2) and sarocladic acid A (3a)), together with five known compounds (6,16-diacetoxy-25-hy- droxy-3,7-dioxy-29-nordammara-1,17(20)-dien-21-oic acid (3b), helvolic ac...
Rice domestication has dramatically improved its agronomic traits, albeit with unavoidable significantly reduced genetic diversity. Dongxiang common wild rice, the wild rice species distributed in northernmost China, exhibits excellent resistance aga...
Dongxiang wild rice (DXWR) (O. rufipogon Griff.), which has the northernmost worldwide distribution of a wild rice species, is a valuable genetic resource with respect to improving stress tolerance in cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.). In the three-l...
Spikelet number per panicle (SNP) is one of the most important yield components in rice. Rice ENHANCING BIOMASS AND SPIKELET NUMBER (OsEBS), a gene involved in improved SNP and yield, has been cloned from an accession of Dongxiang wild rice. However,...
Endophytic FoRo54 was isolated from the roots of Oryza rufipogon (Dongxiang wild rice) collected in China. Based on morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence, strain FoRo54 was identified as closely related...
The endophytic Streptomyces sp. PRh3 (PRh3), isolated from Dongxiang wild rice (DXWR), exhibited impaired biosynthetic capacity in the laboratory. To address this defect, rifampicin-based ribosome engineering was first applied to PRh3 to generate PRh...
