Assessment of efficacy of mutagenesis of gamma-irradiation in plant height and days to maturity through expression analysis in rice.

Introduction of semi-dwarfism and early maturity in rice cultivars is important to achieve improved plant architecture, lodging resistance and high yield. Gamma rays induced mutations are routinely used to achieve these traits. We report the development of a semi-dwarf, early maturing and high-yield...
