Understanding the genetics of field-based tolerance to high iron-associated (HIA) stress in rice can accelerate the development of new varieties with enhanced yield performance in West African lowland ecosystems. To date, few field-based studies have been undertaken to rigorously evaluate rice yield performance under HIA stress conditions. In this study, two NERICA × bi-parental rice populations and one diversity panel consisting of 296 rice accessions were evaluated for grain yield and leaf bronzing symptoms over multiple years in four West African HIA stress and control sites.

- COVID-19 is rapidly spreading globally, and this study focuses on creating an AI tool to diagnose the disease using chest CT scans.
- The research involves a unique convolutional neural network (CNN) combined with graph convolutional network (GCN) techniques to extract and fuse features, resulting in the development of a model named FGCNet.
- FGCNet outperformed 15 existing state-of-the-art methods in tests, demonstrating its potential to help radiologists quickly identify COVID-19 from CT images.
