  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Genetics and Genomics of Rice

Part of the book series: Plant Genetics and Genomics: Crops and Models ((PGG,volume 5))

Abstract

The wild species of the genus Oryza serve as a virtually untapped reservoir of genetic diversity that can be used to improve the world’s most important food crop—rice. The genus is composed of two domesticated (O. sativa and O. glaberrima) and 22 wild species and represents between 15 and 25 million years of evolutionary diversification.
