Axillary bud outgrowth, a key factor in ratoon rice yield formation, is regulated by several phytohormone signals. The regulatory mechanism of key genes underlying ratoon buds in response to phytohormones in ratoon rice has been less reported. In this study, GR24 (a strigolactone analogue) was used to analyze the ratooning characteristics in rice cultivar Huanghuazhan (HHZ). Results show that the elongation of the axillary buds in the first seasonal rice was significantly inhibited and the ratoon rate was reduced at most by up to 40% with GR24 treatment. Compared with the control, a significant reduction in the content of auxin and cytokinin in the second bud from the upper spike could be detected after GR24 treatment, especially 3 days after treatment. Transcriptome analysis suggested that there were at least 742 and 2877 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) within 6 h of GR24 treatment and 12 h of GR24 treatment, respectively. Further bioinformatics analysis revealed that GR24 treatment had a significant effect on the homeostasis and signal transduction of cytokinin and auxin. It is noteworthy that the gene expression levels of , , , and , which are involved in cytokinin or auxin metabolism, were enhanced by the 12 h GR24 treatment. Taken overall, this study showed the gene regulatory network of auxin and cytokinin homeostasis to be regulated by strigolactone in the axillary bud outgrowth of ratoon rice, which highlights the importance of these biological pathways in the regulation of axillary bud outgrowth in ratoon rice and would provide theoretical support for the molecular breeding of ratoon rice.

Grain size and weight of main-crop are larger than those of ratoon rice, indicating that increasing grain size and weight of ratoon rice is an effective way to increase rice yield. Thus, grain length (GL), grain width (GW), and thousand-grain weight (TGW) of main-crop and ratoon rice in 159 indica rice accessions were used to associate with 2 017 495 SNP markers to detect quantitative trait nucleotides (QTNs) and their interactions with meteorological factors (QMIs), such as temperature and sunlight hours. Around 59 QMIs identified for temperature and 80 QMIs identified for sunlight hours, first, candidate gene LOC_Os02g40840 for GW and LOC_Os04g45480 for TGW were found to interact with temperature, while LOC_Os01g19970 for GL, LOC_Os02g39360 and LOC_Os07g05720 for GW, and LOC_Os07g49460 for TGW were found to interact with sunlight hours.

Forage-grain ratoon rice (FG-RR) systems, integrating grain and forage production, promise a sustainable approach to enhance food security and livestock development in marginal regions where ratoon rice (T-RR) is traditionally cultivated. Here, we quantified zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), arsenic (As), and cadmium (Cd) concentrations in ratoon crop grains from 23 rice varieties at four mowing stages (heading, milk-ripening, dry-ripening, and full maturity) of the main crop. Early mowing at the milk-ripening stage significantly reduced As levels (16.

Straw return to the field is an important measure for increasing soil fertility to increase production. Recent studies have shown that straw return to fields can increase rice yield, but the effect of straw return to fields on ratooning rice is limited. To address this problem, this paper investigated the effect of straw return on a ratooning rice system by harvesting at different heights during the first season.

Article Synopsis
- Perennial rice is gaining attention for its cost-saving benefits and high production efficiency, particularly through a new planting system called "mid-season rice-ratoon forage."
- Research conducted in Sichuan Province from 2017 to 2022 shows that factors like year, planting density, and nitrogen rates significantly affect rice grain and ratoon forage yields.
- The study found that higher nitrogen rates and planting densities lead to increased yields, while different stubble heights impact regrowth rates, with nutrient content in ratoon forage also improving with higher nitrogen levels.

Article Synopsis
- * In a study, various concentrations of three forms of selenium were sprayed on RR, resulting in increased selenium content in both the rice grain and straw, along with improved photosynthetic and antioxidant enzyme activity.
- * Sodium selenite and Se-Met were found to enhance grain quality by increasing resistant starch and amylose content, as well as improving gelatinization; findings suggest foliar biofortification may boost the nutritional value of RR.
