Review on genetic transformation of rice / Nur Amalina Ghazali

Rice or its scientific name, Oryza sativa L. is one of the world’s valuable crops. It is cultivated worldwide on 8.2 million hectares in 58 countries annually. Rice is a dietary staple food and one of the most important cereal crops, especially for people in Asia. A switch in production and consumpt...
