Descriptors for wild and cultivated Rice (Oryza spp.)

Descriptors for wild and cultivated rice (Oryza spp.)' is a revision of the original IBPGR and IRRI publication 'Descriptors for rice (Oryza sativa L.)' (1980), expanded to include descriptors for wild rice species of the genus Oryza, and harmonized as far as possible with descriptors developed by the International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Plants (UPOV 2004; www.upov.org) for new cultivars of cultivated rice. The 1980 list has been widely used and is considered to be the most valid descriptor system for rice.  Also Available at: Spanish
