Association Mapping Reveals Novel Genetic Loci Contributing to Flooding Tolerance during Germination in Indica Rice

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the only cereal crop that possesses the ability to germinate under flooded or other oxygen-deficient conditions. Rapid elongation of the coleoptile is a perfect response to flooding during germination, with coleoptile length differing among various rice varieties. Despite m...
