Acquisition of phosphorus and other poorly mobile nutrients by roots. Where do plant nutrition models fail? (2011, background): “This has ultimately led to a considerable impoverishment of the genetic diversity in commercial varieties of most crop species (Khush 2001; Rengel and Marschner 2005).”
Breeding high-yield superior quality hybrid super rice by rational design (2016, neutral): “In 1989, IRRI launched a ‘New Plant Type’ (NPT; also known as ‘Super Rice’) breeding program [18,46,47] (Fig.”
Genome engineering for crop improvement and future agriculture. (2021, neutral): “This strategy is exempliﬁed by the ﬁrst Green Revolution beginning in the late 1950s, in which ‘‘dwarﬁng’’ gene mutations were bred into major staple crops, such as wheat ( Triticum aestivum ) and rice ( Oryza sativa ), to obtain high-yielding varieties (Khush, 2001).”
Through the genetic bottleneck: O. rufipogon as a source of trait-enhancing alleles for O. sativa (2007, background): “cereals were associated with the higher yields of the Green Revolution (Hedden 2003; Khush 2001).”
Modern Biotechnology as an Integral Supplement to Conventional Plant Breeding: The Prospects and Challenges (2006, background): “Conventional plant breeding (Duvick, 1984; Jauhar, 1988; Khush, 1999, 2001), sometimes assisted by markerassisted selection (Dubcovsky, 2004; Lapitan and Jauhar, 2006), and wide hybridization coupled with manipulation of chromosome pairing (Friebe et al., 1996; Fedak, 1999; Jauhar and Chibbar,…”
Genetics of Tillering in Rice and Barley (2014, background): “A model plant with reduced height, low number of unproductive tillers, higher number of grains, and erect leaves has been proposed as the ideotype for cereal breeding (Donald 1968; Khush, 2001).”
Hidden diversity for abiotic and biotic stress tolerances in the primary gene pool of rice revealed by a large backcross breeding program (2006, background): “Rice production inAsia has beenmore than tripled in the past three decades, resulting primarily from the ‘‘Green Revolution’’ in the irrigated ecosystems (Khush, 2001).”
Comprehending crystalline β-carotene accumulation by comparing engineered cell models and the natural carotenoid-rich system of citrus (2011, neutral): “The resultant plasmid has the”
Progressive integrative crop managements increase grain yield, nitrogen use efficiency and irrigation water productivity in rice (2018, background): “) is one of the most important staple cereal crops in the world, and more than half of the world’s population depends on rice for food calories and protein, especially in developing countries (Godfray et al., 2010; Khush, 2001).”
Association Mapping for Enhancing Maize (Zea mays L.) Genetic Improvement (2011, background): “) production between 1966 and 2000 (Khush, 2001).”
The Puzzle of Rice Domestication (2007, background): “With technical advances in molecular breeding, wild gene pools will play an increasingly important role in the genetic improvement of cultivars (Tanksley and McCouch 1997; Khush 2001; Zeder et al. 2006).”
Genetic Regulation of Shoot Architecture. (2018, background): “The application of semidwarf varieties together with associated improvements in crop production almost doubled rice production in Asia between 1960 and 1998 (75).”
