The genomes of five elite strains identified as growth promoters of lowland rice (Oryza sativa L.) in Brazil were sequenced. They ranged in size from 3,695,387 bp to 5,682,101 bp, encompassing genes of saprophytic ability and stress tolerance. Genome taxonomy enabled their classification as Priestia megaterium, Bacillus altitudinis, and three putative new species of Pseudomonas, , and .

The cultivation of soybean is being expanded in traditional areas cultivated with rice, called the lowlands. However, soil characteristics are different from those in the highlands, which influences the exportation of nutrients to the grains. Therefore, this study aimed to determine the physical-chemical and technological characteristics of soybean grains harvested in lowlands in Brazil.

Article Synopsis
  • - Rice struggles in acidic soils due to nutrient deficiencies and metal toxicities, prompting a study to identify genotypes that perform well in low phosphorus conditions.
  • - Researchers evaluated 234 rice genotypes over two seasons and found 46 low-phosphorus tolerant lines, with specific accessions showing better yields than standard checks.
  • - A genome-wide association study uncovered 10 quantitative trait nucleotides related to yield and phosphorus utilization efficiency, along with 34 candidate genes that could guide future rice breeding efforts.

October 2024

The National Office of Nutrition of Madagascar, Madagascar, Lot III M 39, Avenue Dr Joseph Ravoahangy Andrianavalona Anosy, Antananarivo 101, Madagascar.

Malnutrition is a major concern in Madagascar. Eating a wide variety of nutritious food is necessary because Malagasy diets heavily rely on rice consumption. This study explored the barriers to dietary change towards diversification from the perspective of consumer behaviour.

Article Synopsis
  • Scientists are looking for stronger rice plants that can survive changes in the environment and help with the growing population.
  • They studied rice from Myanmar by creating a group of 250 different kinds to understand more about their genes and how they grow.
  • They also worked on mapping the DNA of a special rice called Inn Ma Yebaw (IMY) to help scientists improve rice varieties in the future.

The role of ascorbate redox turnover in iron toxicity tolerance.

Plant Physiol Biochem

October 2024

Department of Agronomy and Crop Physiology, Institute for Agronomy and Plant Breeding I, Justus Liebig University, Giessen, Germany. Electronic address:

Iron (Fe) toxicity is a major abiotic stress in lowland rice production. Breeding tolerant varieties has proven challenging due to the complex genetic architecture of Fe toxicity tolerance and the strong genotype-by-environment interactions. Additionally, conventional methods for phenotyping visible stress symptoms are often inaccurate, inconsistent, and lack reproducibility.
