Genomic approaches and prospects for breeding flood-tolerant rice in Africa

Flooding is among the most devastating abiotic stresses for food crops, recently aggravated by climate change, especially in rainfed rice-producing areas of Africa. Breeding for tolerance to flooding stress has been slow, with flood-tolerant varieties released in few countries. This review explores...
