Data on whole genome resequencing of selected Malaysian rice accessions with opposing response to salinity stress.

The genomics and genetic information of Malaysian rice ( L.) is currently limited. It was necessary to conduct genome resequencing of these rice accessions exhibiting different responses to salinity stress.

Cassava ( Crantz): A Systematic Review for the Pharmacological Activities, Traditional Uses, Nutritional Values, and Phytochemistry.

Cassava ( Crantz) is considered one of the essential tuber crops, serving as a dietary staple food for various populations. This systematic review provides a comprehensive summary of the nutritional and therapeutic properties of cassava, which is an important dietary staple and traditional medicine. The review aims to evaluate and summarize the phytochemical components of cassava and their association with pharmacological activities, traditional uses, and nutritional importance in global food crises.

Genotype × Environment Interaction and Stability Analysis of Commercial Hybrid Grain Corn Genotypes in Different Environments.

The introduction of superior grain corn genotypes with high and stable yield (YLD) in most environments is important to increase local production and reduce dependency on imported grain corn. In this study, days to tasseling (DT), plant height, and YLD of 11 grain corn genotypes were observed in 10 environments to evaluate the effects of genotype (G), environment (E), and genotype by environment interactions (GEI) using GGE analysis and the stability of genotypes using stability parameters. In each location, grain corn genotypes were arranged in three replications using a randomized complete block design.

Incorporating Drought and Submergence Tolerance QTL in Rice ( L.)-The Effects under Reproductive Stage Drought and Vegetative Stage Submergence Stresses.

Drought and submergence have been the major constraint in rice production. The present study was conducted to develop high-yielding rice lines with tolerance to drought and submergence by introgressing into a rice line with drought yield QTL (; = quantitative trait loci) viz. and using marker-assisted breeding.

Drought Yield QTL () with Consistent Effects on Morphological and Agronomical Traits of Two Populations of New Rice () Lines.

Drought has been a major limiting factor for rice production. Drought yield QTLs ( quantitative trait loci) were pyramided into MRQ74 and MR219 to produce drought tolerant lines. In this study, new drought tolerant MRQ74 and MR219 pyramided lines (PLs) were evaluated under drought stress (RS) and non-stress (NS) conditions to evaluate the effects of different combinations on morphological and agronomical traits.

Genetic Dissection of Grain Nutritional Traits and Leaf Blight Resistance in Rice.

Colored rice is rich in nutrition and also a good source of valuable genes/quantitative trait loci (QTL) for nutrition, grain quality, and pest and disease resistance traits for use in rice breeding. Genome-wide association analysis using high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is useful in precisely detecting QTLs and genes. We carried out genome-wide association analysis in 152 colored rice accessions, using 22,112 SNPs to map QTLs for nutritional, agronomic, and bacterial leaf blight (BLB) resistance traits.
