C4 Rice Project Enters Third Phase towards Better Photosynthesis in Rice |
Scientists at Oxford University and partners are entering the third phase of their project with an objective to improve photosynthesis in rice by introducing more efficient traits from other crops. One of the major goals of the project is to switch rice from C3 photosynthetic pathway to C4, which is more efficient and is projected to increase productivity by 50 percent, as well as improve nitrogen use efficiency, double water use efficiency, and drought tolerance.
