Convergent evolution of perenniality in rice and sorghum by Hu, F.Y., Tao, D.Y., Sacks, E., Fu, B.Y., Xu, P., Li, J., Yang, Yang, McNally, K., Khush, G.S., Paterson, A.H., Li, Z.K.

“…Annual and perennial habit are two major strategies by which grasses adapt to seasonal environmental change, and these distinguish cultivated cereals from their wild relatives. Rhizomatousness, a key trait contributing to perenniality, was investigated by using an F 2 population from a cross between cultivated rice ( Oryza sativa ) and its wild relative, Oryza longistaminata . …”
