and Oryza glaberrima. Oryza sativa is popularly known as Asian rice
while the common name for Oryza glaberrima is African rice. The study of
rice genomics deals with the entirety of genes present in it. Rice
genetics focuses on the transfer of DNA from one generation to the
other. Rice breeding is involved in a number of objectives such as
increasing the quality, yield and resistance to biotic and abiotic
stress. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of genomics, genetics
and breeding of rice which will be crucial for the progress of this
field in the future. It consists of contributions made by international
experts. The book is appropriate for students seeking detailed
information in this area as well as for experts.
