Early farmers accidentally bred “warrior” wheat — plants shaped over millennia to fight neighbors for light and space. Then modern breeding had to undo all of it.

How Early Farmers Accidentally Bred Wheat to Fight

Ancient cultivation created warrior plants. Modern breeding had to undo the damage.

🙂#Rice is a staple crop and vital to #FoodSecurity in #China.

☹️Rice Sheath Blight is caused by Rhizoctonia solani, a damaging and difficult-to-control #fungal #pathogen.

What if there was a win-win strategy for both rice #yield and RSB resistance?
