Abstract
Rice is ideally suited to genetic and molecular studies. Some of its positive features include a small nuclear genome (450 Mb), diploidy (2n = 2x = 24) and the ability to be transformed by exogenous DNA (Uchimaya et al. 1986; Arumuganathan and Earle 1991). Moreover, because of its importance as a crop species, scientists have been identifying and studying the genetic basis of morphological and physiological mutants for nearly a century.
