Event: Transcriptomic Profiling of Rice Plants under SRI and conventional Management: insights into Abiotic and Biotic stress Pathways.

0 Comments

Join us for an insightful session exploring the molecular basis of the System of Rice Intensification (SRI). This webinar will present recent transcriptomic research comparing rice plants under SRI vs. conventional management, with a focus on how these practices influence gene expression related to abiotic and biotic stress pathways.  Topic: Transcriptomic Profiling of Rice Plants under […]

On-farm impact of the System of Rice Intensification (SRI): Evidence and knowledge gaps

0 Comments

The System of Rice Intensification (SRI) is being promoted worldwide, but relatively little is yet known about its impacts at farm level. This article reviews available evidence on the impact of SRI practices in terms of yield and productivity. Adoption of SRI practices necessarily changes the mix and allocation of inputs, in particular of water, […]

SRI 2.0 and Beyond: Sequencing the Protean Evolution of the System of Rice Intensification

0 Comments

SRI has progressed well beyond what it was when first assembled some 40 years ago by Henri de Laulanié, SJ, in Madagascar [1]. It has changed considerably since becoming known outside that country after 2000. Initially, SRI was understood and presented in terms of certain practices, some quite counterintuitive, for improving smallholder production of irrigated […]
