Effect of nitrogen and phosphorus application on starch characteristics and quality of rice with different nitrogen efficiency.

Introduction: The application of nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers is an important factors affecting the quality of rice, and different nitrogen-efficient rice varieties show significant differences in their response to nitrogen and phosphorus application.

Methods: In this experiment, a low-nitrogen-high efficiency variety (Deyou 4727) and a high-nitrogen-high efficiency variety (Jingyou 781) were selected, and the changes in rice quality and differences in starch structure under nitrogen-phosphorus interaction treatments were determined.

Results: Appearance, flavor, starch content and thermodynamic properties, endosperm cell arrangement, and starch granule morphology and size were significantly influenced by variety, nitrogen-phosphorus interactions, and their interaction effects.

Rapid function analysis of OsiWAK1 using a Dual-Luciferase assay in rice.

In the past decade, the exploration of genetic resources in rice has significantly enhanced the efficacy of rice breeding. However, the exploration of genetic resources is hindered by the identification of candidate genes. To expedite the identification of candidate genes, this study examined tapetum programmed cell death-related genes OsiWAK1, OsPDT1, EAT1, TDR, and TIP2 to assess the efficacy of the Dual-Luciferase (Dual-LUC) assay in rapidly determining gene relationships.

Application of Open Panicle Traits in Improving the Filling Characteristics at the Base of Rice Panicles.

Panicle-type structure is an important factor affecting rice yield, and an excellent panicle type has become a key indicator in rice breeding. In this study, the rice variety R766, which has an open panicle type, was obtained through natural mutation and hybrid selection. Through analyzing differences in panicle structure, panicle yield, and chemical composition between open panicle rice R766 and conventional panicle rice R2928, we found that the angles of the middle and lower branches in R766 were 186.

Effect of nitrogen fertilizer on the quality traits of Indica rice with different amylose contents.

Background: Nitrogen is a key factor affecting the quality of rice. Studying the impact of nitrogen fertilizer on the taste, physicochemical properties, and starch structure of Indica rice with different amylose contents is of great significance for scientifically fertilizing and cultivating high-quality rice varieties for consumption.

Results: The results indicate that increasing nitrogen fertilizer application reduces the amylose content and increases the protein content, resulting in a decrease in taste quality.

Degradation of agricultural waste is dependent on chemical fertilizers in long-term paddy-dry rotation field.

The practice of returning straw to agricultural fields is a globally employed technique. Such agricultural fields also receive a significant amount of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) fertilizers, because these two macronutrients are essential for plant growth and development. However, the consequences of such macronutrients input on straw decomposition, soil dissolved organic matter (DOM), key microbes, and lignocellulolytic enzymes are still unclear.

Physicochemical properties and molecular mechanisms of different resistant starch subtypes in rice.

Resistant starch (RS) can help prevent diabetes and decrease calorie intake and that from plants are the main source of mankind consumption. Rice is many people's staple food and that with higher RS will help health management. A significantly positive correlation exists between apparent amylose content (AAC) of rice and its RS content.

Effects of Nitrogen and Phosphorus Regulation on Plant Type, Population Ecology and Sheath Blight of Hybrid Rice.

(1) Background: Sheath blight is one of the most economically significant rice diseases worldwide. A study was conducted in order to find the relationship and impact of the amount of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) application on the hybrid rice population microclimate and the severity of sheath blight. (2) Methods: Four N and four P application levels were used to determine their impact on plant type, temperature, and humidity variation in different positions of population and the severity of sheath blight in the later stage.

Effect of chemical fertilizer reduction on the quality of hybrid rice of different amylose contents.

To promote the reduction and efficiency of chemical fertilizers in rice production, two hybrid rice varieties with different amylose contents (16.43% and 27.58%) were selected to study the yield and quality performance of different quality rice varieties under reduced nitrogen/phosphorus conditions.

Response of root development and nutrient uptake of two chinese cultivars of hybrid rice to nitrogen and phosphorus fertilization in Sichuan Province, China.

Background: Chemical fertilization helped modern agriculture in grain yield improvement to ensure food security. The response of chemical fertilization for higher hybrid rice production is highly dependent on optimal fertilization management in paddy fields. To assess such responses, in the current work we examine the yield, root growth, and expression of related genes responsible for stress metabolism of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in two hybrid-rice cultivars Deyou4727 (D47) and Yixiangyou2115 (Y21).

Map-Based Cloning and Functional Analysis of in Rice, Which Is Involved in Light-Dependent Chlorophyll Biogenesis and Photoperiodic Flowering Pathway.

Light is one of the most important environmental factors that affect many aspects of plant growth, including chlorophyll (Chl) synthesis and flowering time. Here, we identified a rice mutant, (), and characterized the gene by using a map-based cloning method. encodes a heme oxygenase, which is localized to the chloroplasts.

[Genetic analysis of dense and erect panicle 2 allele DEP2-1388 and its application in hybrid rice breeding].

Using ethyl methanesulfonate (EMS) mutagenesis, we isolated an erect panicle mutant, R1338, from indica heavy-panicle restorer Shuhui498. Compared with wild type control, the mutant displayed dwarfism, erect and short panicle, short primary panicle branch, increased grain density, short grain length and increased grain thickness. In addition, the erect panicle architecture of R1388 resulted in significant decreased bending moment and increased resistance to panicle bending.
