Dataset on developing low glycemic index rice variety suitable for irrigated ecosystem in Bangladesh.

This dataset offers a comprehensive analysis of rice grain yield and quality traits over a period of three years, spanning 27 different environments in Bangladesh. The focus is on evaluating the performance of various genotypes (G), environments (E), and their interactions (GEI). The study's goal is to identify a stable and adaptive rice genotype that not only exhibits high-quality traits but also has a low glycemic index.

Deciphering the genetic basis of agronomic, yield, and nutritional traits in rice (Oryza sativa L.) using a saturated GBS-based SNP linkage map.

Developing high-yielding rice varieties that possess favorable agronomic characteristics and enhanced grain Zn content is crucial in ensuring food security and addressing nutritional needs. This research employed ICIM, IM, and multi-parent population QTL mapping methods to identify important genetic regions associated with traits such as DF, PH, NT, NP, PL, YLD, TGW, GL, GW, Zn, and Fe. Two populations of recombinant inbred lines consisting of 373 lines were phenotyped for agronomic, yield and grain micronutrient traits for three seasons at IRRI, and genotyped by sequencing.

Meta-QTL s and haplotypes for efficient zinc biofortification of rice.

Biofortification of rice with improved grain zinc (Zn) content is the most sustainable and cost-effective approach to address Zn malnutrition in Asia. Genomics-assisted breeding using precise and consistent Zn quantitative trait loci (QTLs), genes, and haplotypes can fast-track the development of Zn biofortified rice varieties. We conducted the meta-analysis of 155 Zn QTLs reported from 26 different studies.

Introgression of tsv1 improves tungro disease resistance of a rice variety BRRI dhan71.

Rice Tungro disease poses a threat to rice production in Asia. Marker assisted backcross breeding is the most feasible approach to address the tungro disease. We targeted to introgress tungro resistance locus tsv1 from Matatag 1 into a popular but tungro susceptible rice variety of Bangladesh, BRRI dhan71.
