Project name: Oryza minuta strain:IRGC:101141

Description: Oryza minuta is a perennial wild rice species found mainly in Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea. It has a BBCC genome. It grows by the side of streams and riverbanks in lowland areas. The plants have short stature, less than 1.5 meters, and a panicle base lacking a whorl of branches. They are stoloniferous and creeping. Breeders are interested because of demonstrated resistance to bacterial blight, rice blast, brown plant hopper and sheath blight. Two libraries were produced. A 9X coverage BAC library was used to generate an FPC map. A shotgun library of randomly sheared DNA was used to generate sequence for repetitive DNA analysis.

Data type: Clone ends
