Genome-wide association analysis identifies resistance loci for bacterial blight in a diverse collection of indica rice germplasm
Published 2017“…Twelve resistance loci containing 121 significantly associated signals were identified using 317,894 single nucleotide polymorphisms, which explained 13.3–59.9% of the variability in lesion length caused by Xoo races P1, P6, and P9a. …”

Genome-wide association analysis tracks bacterial leaf blight resistance loci in rice diverse germplasm
Published 2017“…Furthermore, significant associations of SNPs in chromosomes 6, 9, 11, and 12 did not overlap with known resistance loci and hence might prove to be novel sources of resistance. …”

Evaluation of the APSIM model in cropping systems of Asia
Published 2017“…One such cropping systems model is the Agricultural Production Systems Simulator (APSIM). We evaluated APSIM’s ability to simulate the performance of cropping systems in Asia from several perspectives: crop phenology, production, water use, soil dynamics (water and organic carbon) and crop CO2 response, as well as its ability to simulate cropping sequences without reset of soil variables. …”
