  • As if there is a video on waterproof rice.. in my biology class I just did a giant project on waterproof rice. Sub-1A gene! weew.. aha I am a nerd yea, i know.

  • Even if rice grows on flooded soils it is sensitive to complete submergence. Only some varieties can survive this stress-condition using different strategies (avoidance or the metabolic quiescence shown here).

  • I don´t get it. Is this dry land rice? Otherwise why sould flooding be a problem?

  • nice experiment, but where;s the music?

  • A new version is forthcoming with birds chirping and water running!

  • This is a very interesting film, especially the way it shows science 'in action' right before your eyes.

  • The discovery of this gene allows for development of new rice varieties that can withstand flooding, thus overcoming one of agriculture's oldest challenges and offering relief to millions of poor rice farmers around the world.
