IMPACT OF RICE GENERAL REGULATORY FACTOR14H (GF14H) ON LOW-TEMPERATURE SEED GERMINATION AND ITS APPLICATION TO BREEDING.

Impact of rice GENERAL REGULATORY FACTOR14h (GF14h) on low-temperature seed germination and its application to breeding.

Direct seeding is employed to circumvent the labor-intensive process of rice (Oryza sativa) transplantation, but this approach requires varieties with vigorous low-temperature germination (LTG) when sown in cold climates.To investigate the genetic basis of LTG, we identified the quantitative trait locus (QTL) qLTG11 from rice variety Arroz da Terra
