Oryza rufipogon cultivar:Griff. Genome sequencing

Dongxiang Common wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.), known as the ancestor of cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.), is the most important germplasm for rice improvement. The high-quality genome sequence of Dongxiang Common wild rice will provide an important resource for functional and evolutionary studies in the genus Oryza, and further facilitate rice breeding.
