Enhancing Yield and Improving Grain Quality in Japonica Rice

Practical Solutions and Value

• Adapting Japonica rice varieties from the northeast to lower latitudes
• Using CRISPR-Cas9 technology to edit the EHD1 gene in premium Japonica cultivars
• Field trials demonstrating increased yield and retention of desirable traits in new ehd1 mutants
• Disabling Ehd1 to postpone flowering, allowing for low-latitude cultivation
• Accelerated breeding of elite northeastern Japonica rice through gene-editing techniques
