Research Project:
COOPERATIVE USE OF GREENHOUSE FACILITIES AT DALE BUMPERS NATIONAL RICE RESEARCH CENTER
Location: Dale Bumpers National Rice Research Center
Project Number: 6225-21000-009-07
Project Type:
Nonfunded Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Oct 01, 2005
End Date: Sep 30, 2010
Objective:
The objective of this cooperative project is to conduct research on the genetic improvement and physiology of rice, and other relevant research investigations of mutual benefit to DBNRRC and University of Arkansas Rice Research and Extension Center-Stuttgart, AR (Cooperator) using services and facilities of DBNRRC as follows: specialized equipment for laboratory and field-oriented experiments; specialized laboratory, greenhouse, office or other facilities as required for the research; and commitment of personnel and their necessary travel to conduct the cooperative research.
Approach:
Numerous rice plants will be propagated in soil-filled, flooded pots and grown to 1) the seedling stage for marker-assisted selection procedures; and 2) the flowering stage/maturity for crossing purposes, for grain filling physiology experiments, and for anther culture experiments.
