Rice glycosyltransferase OsDUGT1 is involved in heat stress tolerance by glycosylating flavonoids and regulating flavonoid metabolism.

One significant environmental element influencing the growth and yield of rice ( L.) is high temperature. Nevertheless, the mechanism by which rice responds to high temperature is not fully understood.

New abietane and tigliane diterpenoids from the roots of and their cytotoxic activities.
