Grain size and weight are important determinants of rice yield. The identification of beneficial genes from wild rice that have been lost or weakened in cultivated rice has become increasingly important for modern breeding strategies. In this study, we constructed a set of chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) of wild rice, <i>Oryza rufipogon</i> with the <i>indica</i> cultivar 9311 genetic background. Four grain-related traits, i.e., grain length (GL), grain width (GW), length-width rat ...[more]
