Abstract

On the cover

Panicles of wild Oryza (AA, BB, BBCC, CC, CCDD, EE and FF genomes), showing variations in size, length and branching pattern. Variations in the number of grains on a panicle may be due to differences in the reproductive strategies among the genus and species (This issue, p. 291–298).
