Abstract:Weedy rice (Oryza sativa f. spontanea) is a conspecific weed that has invaded cultivated rice fields, effectively adapted to modern management practices, leading to substantial yield losses and reduced harvest quality. The understanding of weedy rice genetic diversity and population structure is critical in developing effective control measures. Twenty weedy rice populations were collected around the island and evaluated using 33 SSR markers. Our findings indicated that the genetic diversity (He) in a populati… Show more
