My PhD paper is out! 🎉 We've uncovered the physiological and genetic basis that makes the rice landrace Wazuhophek incredibly efficient at using phosphate from poor soils.
Read our new paper, coming out of my first collaboration with ICAR, IIRR! Roots sacrifice their phosphate demand to support yield in rice! @NIPGRsocial @icarindia @iirr_icar @DBTIndia Phosphate..utilization efficiency in the rice landrace Wazuhophek academic.oup.com/jxb/article…

The traditional method of removing the weeds from cotton crops using bullocks is time consuming and very costly. Chemical herbicides are also expensive. We need such technology that can control weeds at low cost. #Biotechnogy

Dr. @JGiriLab at BRIC @NIPGRsocial has generated rice lines that demonstrate improved Pi uptake and grain yield, even in soils fertilized with lower phosphate levels. His team has employed an innovative approach by using CRISPR/Cas to eliminate the repressor binding site from the OsPHO1;2 gene's promoter.
