Detection of Chromosomal Regions Affecting Iron Concentration in Rice Shoots Subjected to Excess Ferrous Iron Using Chromosomal Segment Substitution Lines betweenJaponica and Indica

Excess ferrous iron in lowland soil is known to inhibit the growth of rice. A quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis for susceptibility to ferrous iron was performed using chromosomal segments substitution lines (CSSLs). Kasalath, an indica rice cultivar, is known to be susceptible to ferrous iron...
