Influence of intrinsic soil factors on genotype-by-environment interactions governing micronutrient content of milled rice grains
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rice as the major staple food of the world although is high in calories but deficient in essential micronutrients. This deficiency can be tackled by biofortification of rice grains with enhanced micronutrient content. Field experiments were carried out across three locations involving 17 genotypes, with the objective of assessing the genotype × environment interaction for native soil micronutrient assimilation in rice kernels and the influence of intrinsic soil variables on micronutrient content in rice grains.

Arsenic contamination in soils often leads to groundwater contamination and arsenic toxicity in plants, humans and animals. Plant hormones play a quantitative and qualitative role in the coordination of growth and yield in plants. In this research the effects of gibberellin and sodium arsenate in different genotypes of rice were studied. The work has been conducted as a factorial experiment bas...
متن کاملComparative analysis of nutritional compositions of transgenic high iron rice with its non-transgenic counterpart.
Iron is an essential micronutrient for human nutrition and polished rice contains very low amount of iron. Rice with high iron content in seed endosperm has been developed by insertion of soybean ferritin gene under the control of the endosperm specific glutelin promoter into the genome of indica rice line IR68144. The nutritional composition of the brown and milled rice grain has been compared...
متن کاملEvaluation the Mean Performance and Stability of Rice Genotypes by Combining Features of AMMI and BLUP Techniques and Selection Based on Multiple Traits
Additive main effect and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and best linear unbiased prediction (BLUP) are two methods for analyzing multi-environment trials (MET). In this study, seven selected rice lines were evaluated along with two check varieties based on randomized complete block design in Tonekabon, Amol and Sari (Iran) in three growing seasons of 2011-14. To quantify the genotypic stabil...
متن کاملArsenic Tracking in Iranian Rice: Analysis of Agricultural Soil and Water, Unpolished Rice and White Rice
Since rice is a staple food most consumed world-wide, there have been increasing health concerns regarding exposure to arsenic through rice consumption. Several studies have reported the accumulation of arsenic in rice grains cultivated in regions with elevated levels of arsenic in groundwater or contaminated soil. Therefore the principal aim of this study was determining the amount of arsenic ...
متن کاملImpact of fertilizers on the uptake of 226Ra, 232Th, and 40K by pot-grown rice plants
Fertilizers usually enhance potassium (K) content and other naturally occurring radioactive materials in agricultural fields that eventually enter the human food chain through plants. In this study, pot-grown rice plants planted in soil that is relatively high in natural radioactive content was used to estimate the individual influence of fertilizer applications on the uptake of 226Ra, 232Th, a...
