Unveiling Genetic Loci for Root Morphology and Salt Response at Rice Seedling Stage via Genome-Wide Association Studies Open
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a salt-sensitive crop, where even moderate soil salinity (electrical conductivity ≥ 3.5 dS/m) can cause significant yield reduction. During the seedling stage, the underdeveloped root system has limited capacity f…
