Genetic mapping of a spontaneous short-grain mutation reveals a novel loss-of-function allele of SRS3 in rice

The discovery and genetic characterization of a spontaneous short-grain mutation arising in the long-grain wild-type advanced breeding line RU2002174 from the LSU AgCenter Rice Breeding Program is reported, document the real-time emergence of functional genetic variation in elite rice germplasm and highlight the import...
