The development of C4 rice: current progress and future challenges
Another “green revolution” is needed for crop yields to meet demands for food. The international C 4 Rice Consortium is working toward introducing a higher-capacity photosynthetic mechanism—the C 4 pathway—into rice to increase yield. The goal is to identify the genes necessary to install C 4 photos...
