I'm very interested in the field of plant science, especially about crops. Today, i'm prepared a research proposal for applying a scholarship from Indonesian government and M.Sc. program.
In my country (Indonesia), many rice cultivar are widely cultivated by local people. Many study was conducted for rice breeding and genetic improvement. And researcher who are studying wild rice still limited. So, i'm very interested to explore the germplasm of wild rice in Indonesia especially from swampland in Kalimantan island. I have some question:
Why studying about wild rice germplasm very important?
How to identify wild rice in their habitat based on morphological character?
Can anyone share a publication about wild rice?
Thanks for your response!

Dear Mabrur,
I have experience on African wild rice since I working on these species. Which species, are you planning to work on?
Thank you Daniel Dro Tia
I don't have a plan about the species which i'm interest to work in. Indonesian wild rice information and data still limited. So, i don't have an idea. My undergraduate lecturer said, in South Kalimantan were found Oryza rufipogon which was ate by swamp bufallo (Bulbalus bulbalis). But, these information just only his hypothesized without field survey.
Wild rice that wild rices have been used for allele mining and several success stories are there, but one thing I want to say that maintenance of wild rices is very difficult since they have shattering problem. One thing I want to suggest is that you should take several staggering of the genotypes with which you want to make crosses so that you can use different accessions. Be careful for the maintenance of wild accessions.
You can contact Dr. Maria Celeste Banaticla-Hilario of the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI). She is a taxonomist in charge of wild rice , her email is [email protected]. She can provide you detailed information.
I am a student I need publications on Genetic diversity studies in Traditional or wild rice varieties
