Abstract excerpt
KEY MESSAGE: A genome-wide association study in rice yielded loci and candidate genes associated with tolerance to iron toxicity, and revealed biochemical mechanisms associated with tolerance in contrasting haplotypes. Iron toxicity is a major nutrient disorder affecting rice. Therefore, understanding the genetic and physiological mechanisms associated with iron toxicity tolerance is crucial in adaptive breeding...
