Rice is a staple food for half of the world’s population. Productivity of rice has largely been improved since the green revolution in 1960s. Further improvement of rice yield is necessary to keep pace with population growth, which is a challenging task for breeders. This book reviews current knowledge in germplasm exploration, genetic basis of complex traits, and molecular breeding strategies in rice.
