Description

Nnaemeka Emmanuel Okpala and co-authors test a water saving way to grow rice under heat, and how it affects yield traits and the scent compound that makes some rice prized. Heat from climate change is a major block to rice output in much of the world.

Three rice types with unlike heat tolerance were grown with wetting and drying cycles from heading to harvest. The method cut the share of grains that set seed in all types, in ways that hinged on each type's heat stance. Yet it eased the harm heat does to the scent compound, which rose in leaf and grain. Grain shape facts also came to light.
