Evolutionary analysis of the polygenic Sub1 locus in rice
Figure 1
Fukao et al. (pp. 143–150) report on the gene and allelic diversity of the Sub1 genes (Sub1A/B/C) in domesticated rice, Oryza sativa, and its wild relatives, O. nivara and O. rufipogon. The Sub1A gene, which can confer submergence tolerance, arose from gene duplication of Sub1B, apparently prior to the divergence of the indica and aus subspecies of O. sativa.


Developing submergence-tolerant rice varieties
Figure 2
Short-term flooding causing complete submergence of a rice crop causes major yield losses in many rice growing areas. Septiningsih et al. (pp. 151–160) investigate the effects of the ERF genes Sub1A and Sub1C, and describe marker-assisted backcrossing with the Sub1A gene to develop six submergence-tolerant rice varieties, showing great potential for cultivation in flood-prone areas.
