Rice Biology in the Genomics Era

Rice Biology in the Genomics Era edited by Hiro-Yuki Hirano, Atshushi Hirai, Yoshio Sano, Takuji Sasaki.

Rice (Oryza sativa) is one of the most important staple food crops in the world. Breeding efforts to improve the agronomical quality of rice have been conducted, and studies on rice from the viewpoint of basic biological interest have also been carried out. In 1991, a book entitled Rice (edited by D...
