چکیده
The first box is a statement of project objectives. This section will remain the same for each reporting period. By our definition, an objective is a “concise and quantifiable statement of what will result from the successful completion of a project in terms that relate to the goals of The Rice Foundation Research Program.” Note: do not include information on the means or methods for accomplishing the objectives, these are strategies. If the objectives detailed in your original project proposal do not meet this criterion, please refine them.

The 3,000 rice genomes project
BACKGROUND Rice, Oryza sativa L., is the staple food for half the world's population. By 2030, the production of rice must increase by at least 25% in order to keep up with global population growth and demand. Accelerated genetic gains in rice improvement are needed to mitigate the effects of climate change and loss of arable land, as well as to ensure a stable global food supply. FINDINGS We...
متن کاملQuadrature prefilters for the discrete wavelet transform
Discrepancies between the Discrete Wavelet Transform and the coefficients of the Wavelet Series are known to be reducible by initialization of input data. Prefilters based on Lagrange interpolants are derived here for biorthogonal compact support wavelet systems, providing exact subspace projection in cases of local polynomial smoothness. The resulting convergence acceleration in a non-polynomi...
متن کاملGolden Rice
Golden Rice was engineered from normal rice by Ingo Potrykus and Peter Beyer in the 1990s to help improve human health. Golden Rice has an engineered multi-gene biochemical pathway in its genome [5]. This pathway produces beta-carotene, a molecule that becomes vitamin A when metabolized by humans [6]. Ingo Potrykus worked at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland, and ...
متن کاملThe Rice Quality Program of the USDA - ARS Rice Research
Since the establishment of the USDA-ARS Rice Quality Laboratory in the 1950s, we have committed to provide service to the Federal and State breeding programs by evaluating U.S. breeding lines to ensure that all future U.S. varieties have quality traits acceptable to the rice industry. In addition, we have been conducting research to better understand cooking and processing traits of importance ...
متن کاملResearch of Rice-Quality Based on Computer Vision and Near Infrared Spectroscopy
A rapid and nondestructive way to measure protein and amylose content of rice was put forward based on near infrared(NIR) spectral technology. The NIR spectra were acquired from 13 varieties of rice with the wavelength from700 to 1100nm. The objectives of the present study were to establish forecasting model to find out the relationship between the absorbance of the spectrum and the main compon...
