Oryza brachyantha A. Chev. et Roehr

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
The Wild Oryza Genomes

Part of the book series: Compendium of Plant Genomes ((CPG))

Abstract

The growing interest in the Oryza genus comes from the feasibility of studying genome evolution of these closely related species, as well as the direct impact of identifying desirable phenotypes that could be transferred to Oryza sativa, one of the world’s most important cereals. Among the Oryza species, Oryza brachyantha is unique: it is highly divergent, has the smallest genome in the genus and is the only FF species, and has several traits that could be useful to improve Oryza sativa. However, our understanding of the basic biology of O. brachyantha and conservation of its diversity in germplasm are still preliminary. In this chapter, we summarize the current knowledge on O. brachyantha, especially on its recently published genomes (nuclear and chloroplastidic), basic genetics, and sequence comparisons with other Oryza species. The information gathered here should be useful to guide efforts to conserve and explore O. brachyantha diversity, a necessary step in order to achieve both basic and applied science goals in the future.
