Grain-Filling Characteristics in Extra-Large Panicle Type of Early-Maturing <i>japonica</i>/<i>indica</i> Hybrids

Early-maturing <i>japonica</i>/<i>indica</i> hybrids (EJIH) have recently been released, performing a yield potential of 13.5 t ha<sup>−1</sup> and greater yield increase over conventional <i>japonica</i> rice (CJ) and hybrid <i>indica</i>...
