In cold weather, rice pollen suffers in a variety of ways as it struggles to develop
A team of botanists in Japan have overturned decades-old assumptions about how cold stress leads to pollen sterility in rice.

How much nitrogen does rice need to produce high yields?
Researchers use 3D modelling of rice canopies to determine how nitrogen availability affects photosynthetic productivity.
Tracking down the DNA for salt removal in a rice leaf sheath
The ability for salt removal at the leaf sheath level is considered to be one of the major mechanisms associated with salt tolerance in rice
From computer to field: can in silico modelling can help us to optimise rice for possible droughts?
Advances in computational models may allow us to quickly predict responses of important food crops to environmental stresses in the field, and to identify the genetic basis of these.

Understanding the longevity of rice seeds
How long can a genebank keep seeds? New research looks into the variability of seed longevity in Indica rice.
OsDCL1 activation compromises resistance against rice blast fungus
Abscisic acid affects rice cell wall phosphate remobilization and P transporation
Plants and animals in sexual harmony
Nigel Chaffey discovers that more plants thought to leave pollination to luck possess the power of puppetry.
Different types of rice tiller responses to nitrogen
Reducing P uptake by plants
Some things are hard to digest, but is an excess of phosphorus really one of them?
