Laboratory of Rice Breeding

Core Objectives

  • Development of novel rice varieties specifically adapted to the Far Eastern cultivation zone

  • Production of elite breeder seeds

  • Optimization of cultivation technologies to maximize yield potential

Research Infrastructure

Studies are conducted across:

  • Laboratory facilities

  • Controlled greenhouse environments

  • Experimental rice fields (12.45 ha) at FSBSI “FSC of Agricultural Biotechnology of the Far East named after A.K. Chaiki”

    • Gravity irrigation system

    • 260,000 m³ reservoir capacity

    • Located in stl. Timiryazevsky (Ussuriysk)

Methodological Approach

  • Hybridization techniques

  • Advanced biotechnological methods

  • Introduction and evaluation of geographically diverse germplasm to identify optimal trait donors

Genetic Resources

  • Curated collection including accessions from:

    • N.I. Vavilov All-Russian Institute of Plant Genetic Resources

    • Federal Scientific Center of Rice

    • Agricultural Research Center “Donskoy”

Technological Innovations

Developed cultivation protocols that:

  • Are variety-specific, based on biological characteristics

  • Optimize plant nutrition regimens

  • Determine ideal sowing densities
