Project Title

  • Field phenomics for response of a rice diversity panel to tenenvironments in Senegal and Madagascar. 1. Plant phenological traits

The Background of This Project

Plant Materials & Treatment

  • The population taken from the ORYTAGE species-wide (O.sativa L.) diversity panel of Cirad (http://ricephenonetwork.irri.org/diversity-panels/orytage-diversity-panels) which is also aresource for the GRiSP Global Rice Phenotyping Network (http://ricephenonetwork.irri.org). For the present study, a sub-sample of189 indica accessions was grown, augmented for comparative pur-poses with 20 genotypes representing other genetic groups (3 aus,3 temperate japonica, 12 tropical japonica, and 2 aromatic acces-sions). The indica population covered improved and traditionalvarieties from all tropical regions but had large sub-populationsfrom Madagascar (34) and W-Africa (44, thereof 30 improved linesfrom AfricaRice bred in Senegal) to capture adaptations to theclimatic constraints at the experimental sites. Twenty improvedvarieties and lines were from IRRI (Philippines). A complete list ofaccessions’ geographic origin and seed sources is presented in TableS1.
