Phenotypic characters of rice landraces reveal independent lineages of short-grain aromatic indica rice

Abstract: Crop domestication is a remarkable example of evolution of wildly growing plants into cultivable forms through human selection. Following the domestication of rice almost 10,000 years ago, ancient farmers selected many rice lineages for diverse agronomic and cultural traits, like grain size, shape and colour; awn length; pest resistance; and aroma etc. In this study, examining phenotypic traits of a large collection of Indian rice landraces (all accessed from Vrihi, rice seed bank, ) we characterize the huge p… Show more

“…The GS3 -H1 haplotype showed the highest average GL of 3.97 mm, GW of 1.33 mm, and GL/GW of 2.98 mm comprising long slender grains. It shows that short grain Aus and Aromatic rice cultivars were domesticated first then subsequent selective breeding by generations of farmers, diversified it into several different grain sizes based on selection of random mutants and recombination with other genes in the domesticated rice, for improved yield, quality and other agronomic or cultural value traits (Deb, 2005). Five Japonica cultivars known for their short, round shape and sticky cooked grains showed most diverse haplotypes derived from mutations in the ancestral wild rice haplotype.…”

According to this author, those landraces, carry appreciable genetic information on their genome that can be exploited for developing new varieties with desirable characteristics for grain quality.…”

“…Hundreds of the tidal swamp rice cultivars have been found in the region, and they show some beneficial agronomic traits. As a result of the domestication process and through long-term natural selection, this germplasm shows better adaptation to the local conditions and cultures [2]. Tidal swamp rice also exhibited both a tremendous genetic diversity and substantial genes for promoting the development of new rice cultivars in the future [3][4][5].…”
