Accelerated breeding modernization: a global blueprint for driving genetic gains, climate resilience, and food security in rice
Accelerated breeding modernization: a global blueprint for driving genetic gains, climate resilience, and food security in rice
Rice plays a central role in global food security as climate threats continue to rise. Fast-tracking genetic gains and developing climate-resilient, market-preferred varieties require a bold, system-wide transformation of rice breeding practices worldwide. Baseline diagnostics of more than 25 national rice breeding programs across the Global South revealed critical bottlenecks: obsolete breeding strategy and scheme, fragmented workflows, limited technology access, and poor integration of seed system.
