Improvement of drought resistance in rice. (2009, background): “Recently, Sub1, a major QTL for submergence tolerance (Xu et al., 2006), was introgressed into Swarna, Sambha Mahsuri, and BR11 mega varieties.”
Genotype-by-Environment Interaction and Plasticity: Exploring Genomic Responses of Plants to the Abiotic Environment (2013, background): “In O. sativa varieties with the Sub1A gene, only alleles with submergence-induced expression confer high flooding tolerance (Xu et al. 2006).”
Open access - Invited review THIS ARTICLE IS PART OF A SPECIAL ISSUE ENTITLED 'FLOODING STRESS' Adaptation to flooding during emergence and seedling growth in rice and weeds, and implications for crop establishment (2012, neutral): “However, faster progress is now being witnessed after recent developments in molecular and genomics tools and approaches (Xu et al. 2006; Bailey-Serres et al. 2010).”
Rapid and high-precision marker assisted backcrossing to introgress the SUB1 QTL into BR11, the rainfed lowland rice mega variety of Bangladesh (2011, methodology): “At the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI), a project was undertaken to transfer SUB1, a major QTL on chromosome 9 explaining almost 70% of the phenotypic variance (Xu and Mackill 1996; Xu et al. 2006), into at least six widely-grown rice cultivars in Asia.”
Development of genome-wide SNP assays for rice (2010, background): “For example, the Sub1 locus controlling submergence tolerance consists of a tandemly duplicated array of genes corresponding to Sub1A, Sub1B and Sub1C that are found in wild and cultivated populations (Xu et al. 2006).”
Flooding tolerance: suites of plant traits in variable environments. (2009, background): “When overland floods occur, and shoots are also either partially or even fully submerged, plants must also cope with the additional adverse effects directly on shoots (Voesenek et al. 2006).Knowledgeof mechanismsof floodingtolerance inplants will underpin both increases in crop production ( Xu et al”
