Accelerated breeding modernization: a global blueprint for driving genetic gains, climate resilience, and food security in rice

Rice plays a central role in global food security as climate threats continue to rise. Fast-tracking genetic gains and developing climate-resilient, market-preferred varieties require a bold, system-wide transformation of rice breeding practices worldwide. Baseline diagnostics of more than 25 nation...

description Rice plays a central role in global food security as climate threats continue to rise. Fast-tracking genetic gains and developing climate-resilient, market-preferred varieties require a bold, system-wide transformation of rice breeding practices worldwide. Baseline diagnostics of more than 25 national rice breeding programs across the Global South revealed critical bottlenecks: obsolete breeding strategy and scheme, fragmented workflows, limited technology access, and poor integration of seed system. This highlights the urgent need of breeding modernization to tackle rising food security risks. We introduce Accelerated Breeding Modernization-Breeding and Operational Excellence (ABM-BOx), a globally scalable framework to transform rice breeding programs into modern, data-driven, impact-oriented systems. ABM-BOx operationalizes a paradigm shift by translating the breeder’s equation into real-world impact through two synergistic engines: Breeding Excellence (BE) and Operational Excellence (OE). BE focuses on enhancing genetic gains through demand-driven breeding, strategic parental selection, recurrent population breeding, simulation-driven breeding scheme optimization, genomic selection, and predictive breeding. These strategies increase selection intensity, selection accuracy and shorten the breeding cycle. OE ensures speed, efficiency, and scalability through speed breeding-field based platforms, smart breeding-digital tools, breeding informatics-AI-powered decision tools, strategic costing-optimizing investments, and resilient seed systems. Additionally, Capacity Reinforcement and Functional Transformation-Accelerated Breeding Modernization (CRaFT-ABM) strengthens institutional capacity by focusing on talent, infrastructure, governance, and networks. More than a framework, ABM-BOx is a mission-critical transformation engine that drives innovation, speed, and impact to empower rice breeding efforts globally.
