Abstract excerpt
Natural and artificially induced mutants have provided valuable resources for plant genetic studies and crop improvement. In this study, we investigated the genetic and molecular basis of the purple sheath trait in a somaclonal mutant Z418, which was regenerated from a green sheath rice variety C418 through tissue culture. The purple sheath trait in Z418 was heritable and stable based on our 10 years of...
