Deciphering Regulatory Networks Governing Seedling Emergence in Deep-Sown Direct-Seeded Rice Cultivation.

ABSTRACT: The rise of direct-seeded rice cultivation as a suitable alternative to transplanted puddled rice depends on developing genotypes with high seedling emergence under deep sown conditions. Two rice genotypes (IRGC 128442 and PR126) were screened for contrasting seedling emergence and subjected to high-throughput RNA sequencing under varying sowing depths (4 cm and 10 cm) and time intervals (5, 10, and 15 days after sowing). On average, a total of 2702 differentially expressed genes were identified across twelve inter- and intra-genotypic pairwise differential expression analyses, with a false discovery rate ≤ 0.05 and log2 fold change ≥ ± 2. The DEGs specifically showing differential expression under deep-sowing stress were prioritized and further refined based on their corresponding gene on
