Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Rice breeding is not only important in its value as a food source, but also because of its ability to help address the second goal of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set in 2014—'resolve hunger, achieve food security and develop sustainable agriculture' Rice has excellent nutritional, health, and functional value. For safe food production, we are actively developing new varieties including traditional breeding technology and QTL technology adapted to climate. This Special Issue of Plants highlights the role of traditional breeding techniques, genetic mapping techniques, and QTL techniques in the interaction of genes with the environment.
