Abstract excerpt
Ensuring rice yield and grain safety quality are vital for human health. In this study, we developed two-line hybrid rice (TLHR) with ultra-low grain cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) accumulation by pyramiding novel alleles of OsNramp5 and OsLsi2. We first generated low Cd accumulation restorer (R) lines by editing OsNramp5, OsLCD, and OsLCT1 in japonica and indica. After confirming that OsNramp5 was most efficient...
