Morphological and genetic diversity analysis of rice accessions (Oryza sativa L.) differing in iron toxicity tolerance
(Korean Society of Crop Science and Springer, 2013)A major emphasis in breeding for iron toxicity tolerance in rice is to identify differences that are associated with resistance and harness them for genetic improvement. In this study, thirty accessions, including IRRI ...
