Introgression of submergence tolerance into CO 43, a popular rice variety of India, through marker-assisted backcross breeding

Introgression of submergence tolerance into CO 43, a popular rice variety of India, through marker-assisted backcross breeding

Submergence is a major threat in rice growing areas of South and South-East Asia. Identification of a major QTL, Sub1 and advancements in marker-assisted backcrossing strategy enabled breeders to develop submergence tolerant versions of popular rice cultivars. In the present study, a marker-assisted...
