Abstract excerpt
Rice stem performs assimilate transport and promises sturdiness due to cell wall structure and composition. However, less is known about the genetic basis of its structural characteristics. In this study, for the first time, the scanning electron microscope (SEM) imaging technique was developed to capture digital phenotypes to assess 18 straw traits collected from the cross-sections of 147 rice accessions....
