Garcia, Lolita L., 2015, "Ex-ante Assessment of Farmers and Consumers Acceptability of Genetically Modified (GM) Rice Products in the Philippines", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/NPHMYR, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:6:r5cBYnDd5lwxos1c1teLtw== [fileUNF]
This study is a continuation of the first study on knowledge, attitude and perception of key stakeholders on biotechnology and GMO. This study involved farmers and consumers, in particular. While farmers are themselves consumers, their attitude and perception of rice biotechnology is also important in the adoption of the technology. AS producers an... |
Chauhan, Bhagirath S.; Opena, Jhoana L., 2015, "Management of Volunteer Corn Seedlings in Dry-Seeded Rice", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/27235, Harvard Dataverse, V1
The demand for corn is increasing in Asia for feed and biofuel. It is grown in the rice-corn cropping system. During harvest of corn, however, seeds drop on the soil surface and become problems as volunteer corn seedlings in the subsequent dry-seeded rice crop, in which the suppressive effect of standing water is absent. A study was conducted in sc... |

Opena, Jhoana; Quilty, James; Correa, Teodoro Jr; Chauhan, Bhagirath, 2015, "Weed population dynamics, herbicide efficacies, and crop performance in a sprinkler-irrigated maize-rice cropping system", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/27320, Harvard Dataverse, V1
In the future, maintaining food security will require an increase in rice productivity with less land, labor, and water. Agronomic approaches to reducing the water and labor demands of rice-based cropping systems include crop diversification to include crops with higher water productivity, direct-seeded rice, and irrigation scheduling based on soil... |

Henry, Amelia, 2014, "Environmental response and genomic regions correlated with rice root growth and yield under drought in the OryzaSNP panel across multiple study systems", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/28094, Harvard Dataverse, V3
The rapid progress in genotyping of rice must be matched by advances in phenotyping. A better understanding of the genetic variation in rice for drought response and root traits as well as practical methods for studying them are needed. In this study, the OryzaSNP set (a set of 20 diverse genotypes that have been mapped for SNP markers) was phenoty... |
Abubakary, Kijoji; Nchimbi-Msollaa, Susan; Kanyekac,, Zakaria; Serraj, Rachid; Henry, Amelia, 2015, "Linking root traits and grain yield for rainfed rice in sub-Saharan Africa: Response of Oryza sativa and Oryza glaberrima introgression lines under drought", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/28826, Harvard Dataverse, V2
Rainfed rice ecosystems account for more than 80% of the total rice area in sub-Saharan Africa, and large parts of this region frequently experience drought stress. One potential approach to improve the drought resistance and local adaptation of high-yielding rice varieties in rainfed regions of sub-Saharan Africa is to cross them with the African... |

Clerget, Benoit; Bueno, Crisanta; Quilty, James; Correa, Teodoro; Sandro, Joseph, 2015, "Modifications in development and growth of a dual-adapted tropical rice variety grown as either a flooded or an aerobic crop", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/28202, Harvard Dataverse, V1
As the human population continues to grow and competition for natural resources increases, there is a consequent need to produce more food with fewer resources. Flooded rice crops use large quantities of water, which become scarcer for farmers. New methods of saving irrigation water have been tested and released but they often suffer from a yield t... |
