The researchers studied red rice to see how different traits affect yield. They found that traits like panicle length, filled grains percentage, grain weight per panicle, and thousand-grain weight are important for increasing rice yield. These traits showed a positive relationship with grain yield, while days to flowering and maturity had a negative impact. This means that by selecting for these specific traits, rice yield can be improved.
