Investigating Australian wild rice for improvement of salinity stress tolerance in cultivated rice Oryza sativa l

Nguyen, Thi Thuy Ha (2022) Investigating Australian wild rice for improvement of salinity stress tolerance in cultivated rice Oryza sativa l. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

This project is a comprehensive study on salinity tolerance in Australian wild rice species and the potential applications of CRISPR/Cas9 on improving salinity tolerance in cultivated rice. Salinity tolerance mechanisms in wild rice were investigated by using a high throughput screening technique to assess the morphological and physiological responses. The knowledge of mechanisms from wild rice was manipulated in cultivated rice using the CRISPR/Cas9 technique. The results of this study indicate the potential of wild rice as a genetic resource and CRISPR/Cas9 as an approach to improve salinity tolerance in cultivated rice Oryza sativa L.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
