As the mid-twenty first century approaches, the world is faced with the monumental task of feeding 9 billion people. To address this challenge, sustainable increases in cereal grain production has to be met. Increasing rice production would require significant improvements in two key aspects: (1) crop management strategies including soil, water, and pest and disease management and (2) development of cultivars with better characteristics including higher yield and improved grain quality. Both these factors would be critical in realizing sustainable rice cultivation. This book focuses on the body of genetics, genomics, and breeding researches that have been carried out to characterize the rice plant itself towards the purposeful development of better rice cultivars. Existing rice varieties that are being grown in localities worldwide are results of breeding efforts in response to demands by farmers for cultivars that are adapted to specific regional environments and by consumers with established quality preferences. For a long time, breeding for improved cultivars relied on visual observations and selection of recombinants with favorable phenotypes. With the discovery of Mendel’s law, however, it has been shown that many important phenotypes or traits are too complex to be explained by mere visual observations. As in the case of many other organisms, advancement in molecular genetics has revolutionized our understanding of rice as a plant. The map-based, genome sequence of a standard rice variety that was released in 2004 via an international collaboration has facilitated the identification and cloning of genes and quantitative trait locus (QTL) controlling various traits. This sequence information also opened the doors to the field of genomics which aims to understand genome-wide variation in rice in terms of gene expression, metabolite profile, and hormonal level during development. These information are in turn used to elucidate genetic networks that make up the rice plant. v vi Preface Combined with the fast pace of technological advancements, the mega-volume of genomic information has allowed targeted genetic manipulations to induce variations in a given allele using genome-editing technologies such as TALENS or CRISPR/Cas9 system. To this day, genome editing has found applications not only in validating gene function but also in generating new alleles that can give more favorable phenotypes. This book is composed of 28 chapters that describe the recent progress and future perspectives in Rice Genomics, Genetics and Breeding. Each chapter, written by established rice researchers who are experts in their field, is a comprehensive look at the genetics and genomics machineries underlying various traits in rice that can be used to address issues on food security. This is especially intended for rice scientists, breeders, post-docs, and graduate and undergraduate students as a stan- dard reference that can be used to device strategies towards solving the 9 billion people challenge. The editors would like to gratefully acknowledge the respective authors for their outstanding contributions towards the realization of this wonderful book. Special thanks go to Ms. Yoko Niimi of Nagoya University for carefully checking all the citations in each chapter and to Ms. Sowmya Ramalingam of Springer for the final editing of this book.
