Description
A rice plant's flag leaf feeds the grain, and the shape of its panicle sets how much grain can form, so breeders hunting yield need the genes behind both. Gurjeet Singh and eleven co-authors grew 208 diverse rice lines in Texas fields across two seasons. They measured eight leaf and panicle traits after heading, then scanned the genome for regions tied to them. The scan found 97 trait-linked regions spread over all twelve chromosomes.
Four regions stood out with large effects, and two spots each influenced several traits at once. Looking within those regions, the team nominated 65 candidate genes, fifteen of them active at the reproductive stage, including one tied to a sugar transporter and highly active while the endosperm develops. The map gives breeding programs concrete targets for improving the traits.
