Salt resistance of interspecific crosses of domesticated and wild rice species by Wairich, Andriele, Wember, Louisa Sophie, Gassama, Lamin J., Wu, Lin-Bo, Murugaiyan, Varunseelan, Ricachenevsky, Felipe Klein, Margis-Pinheiro, Marcia, Frei, Michael

“…These ILs showed enhanced vegetation indexes and maintained relatively high gas exchange under salt stress. In addition, these ILs showed less damage to cell membranes and reduced formation of H2O2, when compared with the recurrent parent, O. sativa.ConclusionOur study demonstrated that rice wild relatives are promising sources of salinity resistance. …”

Influence of different Oryza cultivars on expression of nifH gene pools in roots of rice by Knauth, Stefan, Hurek, Thomas, Brar, Darshan, Reinhold-Hurek, Barbara

“…Phylogenetic analysis of a clone library constructed for nifH fragments expressed in wild species of rice roots indicated that active diazotrophs were not related to cultured strains. The composition of active diazotrophic communities was compared for six related cultivars of O. sativa, wild species Oryza brachyantha, and a genetic cross between it and cv. …”
