Abstract excerpt
Being a staple crop and growing over larger area, rice (Oryza sativa L.) generates a vast quantity of straw as a by-product. However, high fibre and silica content present in rice straw makes it difficult to utilize as a quality livestock feed or for industrial utilization, thus necessitating to identify genetic resources with lower silica content and enhanced straw digestibility. In this study, 207 diverse rice...
