Varietal improvement options for higher rice productivity in salt affected areas using crop modelling
Varietal improvement options for higher rice productivity in salt affected areas using crop modelling
The rice model ORYZA v3 has been recently improved to account for salt stress effect on rice crop growth and yield. This paper details subsequent studies using the improved model to explore opportunities for improving salinity tolerance in rice. The objective was to identify combinations of plant traits influencing rice responses to salinity and to quantify yield gains by improving these traits.
