Plant tolerance to high temperature in a changing environment: scientific fundamentals and production of heat stress-tolerant crops (2013, background): “Furthermore, the genetic variability for tolerance to heat stress present in rice could be exploited to screen germplasm and select cultivars that open flowers earlier in the morning or that maintain a high number of spikelets/panicle when grown in warm environments (Singh et al., 2010).”
Introgression the Salinity Tolerance QTLs Saltol into AS996, the Elite Rice Variety of Vietnam (2012, background): “The basis of MABC strategy is to transfer a gene/QTL from a donor line to a recipient line while selecting against donor introgressions across the rest of the genome [1-3].”
New Insights on Plant Salt Tolerance Mechanisms and Their Potential Use for Breeding (2016, background): “Hence, traditional breeding allowed the development of new salt-tolerant rice and wheat varieties (Munns et al., 2006; Singh et al., 2010).”
Characterizing the Saltol Quantitative Trait Locus for Salinity Tolerance in Rice (2010, background): “Nonetheless, it is one of the few crops that can thrive on salt-affected soils because of its ability to grow well in standing water that can help leach salts from topsoil and is, therefore, recommended as an entry crop for desalinization of salt affected lands (Ismail et al. 2007; Singh et al. 2010”
