Genomic prediction offers the most effective marker assisted breeding approach for ability to prevent arsenic accumulation in rice grains.
The high concentration of arsenic (As) in rice grains, in a large proportion of the rice growing areas, is a critical issue. This study explores the feasibility of conventional (QTL-based) marker-assisted selection and genomic selection to improve the ability of rice to prevent As uptake and accumul...
