A review of genetic mapping of root depth in rice

Rice (Oryza sativa. L) is considered one of the most important cereal crops for human nutrition. It required that rice production more than doubles to feed this growing population. To achieve that, better understanding root system will be required. very complex work dissect specific genes which control structure variation due high adaptive plasticity development and practical difficulty in phenotyping traits represents a bottleneck efficient selection ideotypes. The main focus review comparative evaluation genetic mapping rooting depth based on QTL (Quantitative Trait Loci) study. Moreover, we shortcomings benefits current procedure, as well future study overcome these shortcomings.
