High Nighttime Tolerant Rice (IMAGE)
Caption
Activating HYR in a widely cultivated rice variety, which typically has high levels of grain chalkiness, showed tolerance to high nighttime temperatures, as seen on the left with normal grain filling and seed set. Sterility, as seen on the right, from high nighttime temperatures results in unfilled florets that lack grain development due to disrupted pollen viability and fertilization.
