25、cientists has discovered genes that enable rice to survive high water, providing hope for better rice production in lowland areas that are affected by flooding.The genes, called SNORKEL genes, help rice grow longer stems to deal with higher water levels. Deepwater rice generally produces low-yield (
26、低产的) rice plants. But the researchers report they have succeeded in introducing the genes to rice varieties that are higher-yield.According to the report, as water levels rise, accumulation(聚集) of the plant hormone (激素) ethylene (乙烯) makes the SNORKEL genes start working, making stem growth more rap

When the researchers introduced the genes into rice that does not normally survive in deep water, they were able to rescue the plants from drowning.Motoyuki Ashikari, who headed the project, said his team is hoping to use the gene on long grain rice widely used in Southeast Asian to help stabili
