Boosting Rice Yield: Simple Selection Criteria for Higher Grain Production
The study looked at different parts of rice plants to see which ones are important for producing more grains. They found that spikelets, grains, and secondary branches on the plant are key for getting higher grain yield. By focusing on improving these parts, farmers can grow more rice without needing complicated methods. This means that selecting plants with more secondary branches can lead to higher grain yield in rice.
