Abstract | In wetland rice, the most commonly observed micronutrient disorders are Zn deficiency and Fe toxicity. Salinity is the main obstacle to high yields in coastal areas in the humid tropics and in arid and semiarid areas where evaporation exceeds precipitation. To develop sustainable rice-production systems in areas where these stresses occur, cultivar tolerance is often essential although improved management also plays an important role. In the last 15 years, IRRI research has focused on germplasm improvement. Intensive screening and breeding have resulted in high tolerance to Zn deficiency in IRRI's late elite lines; screening methods are available, but tolerance mechanisms and genetics are not yet fully understood. Recent work has shown the importance of root-induced changes in the rhizosphere for solubilizing Zn and increasing its plant uptake. Repeatable screening methods are not yet available for isolating genotypes with tolerance to Fe toxicity. Pot and field methods earlier developed do not allow screening of sufficient numbers of rice lines for an effective breeding program. A greenhouse screening procedure using a 400 mg l−1 iron solution is being tested. Genetic studies are required but may only be feasible when additional knowledge of mechanisms is available. Prebreeding efforts for salinity have resulted in adequate knowledge on mechanisms, genetics and reliable screening techniques. Salt-tolerant rice cultivars with targeted agronomic characteristics and yield potentials are now available. |
