Rice, as a major food staple, has a substantial stock for consumption and production worldwide. However, its food value and seed viability tend to decline during storage. Understanding the physiological responses and molecular mechanisms of aging tolerance forms the basis for enhancing seed storability in rice. This review outlines the latest progress in influential factors, evaluation methods, and identification indices of seed storability. It also discusses the physiological consequences, molecular mechanisms, and strategies for breeding aging-tolerant rice in detail. Finally, it highlights challenges in seed storability research that require future attention. This review offers a theoretical foundation and research direction for uncovering the mechanisms behind seed storability and breeding aging-tolerant rice.展开更多

According to the statistics, more than one billion hectares of the land in the major continents are affected by salinity (Fageria et al, 2012;Zhou et al, 2018). Rice is a salt sensitive crop, considered more sensitive to salt stress during early stage (Hasanuzzaman et al, 2009). Understanding the method to improve plant salt tolerance is a potential way to enhance agriculture productivity in the future (Jing and Zhang, 2017). Polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) on plasma membrane plays important roles in salt tolerance through enhancing the activity of Na^+/H^+ transporters (López-Pérez et al, 2009).展开更多

The utilization of the wild abortive cytoplasmic male sterility （CMS） in 1970s has significantly raised rice yield potential. But the world＇s annual rice production will have to increase 70 percent over the next 30 years, to keep up with the demends of the growing population.展开更多
