Unlocking the diversity of wild and domesticated rice

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The construction of a ‘pangenome’ sequence collection that incorporates the genomes of nearly 150 wild and cultivated rice varieties captures all the genetic diversity found in this plant. It reveals genes associated with disease resistance that are unique to wild rice, and provides insights into the origins of domesticated rice. A pangenome of wild and domesticated rice reveals genes that could be used to improve cultivated plants.
