The International Rice Genebank holds more than 127,000 accessions of rice and wild relatives and is the biggest collection of rice genetic diversity in the world. [ 25 ] [ 26 ] The International Network for Genetic Evaluation of Rice (INGER) was created by IRRI in 1975 as the International Rice Testing Program IRTP. [ 27 ]
In 2002, BGI published the genome of the indica variety of rice. [80] In 2014, BGI also collaborated on a project to re-sequence 3,000 rice genomes from 89 countries. [81] BGI is a member of the international Earth BioGenome Project which aims to sequence the DNA of all known eukaryotic species on Earth. [82]

The genome was sequenced and annotated by the Arabidopsis Genome Initiative (AGI). The initiative for sequencing the genome of rice (Oryza sativa), [15] began in September 1997, when scientists from many nations agreed to an international collaboration to sequence the rice genome, forming "The International Rice Genome Sequencing Project" (IRGSP).
The chloroplast genome of mulberry (Morus indica cv. K2): complete nucleotide sequence, gene organization and comparative analysis (2006) published in Tree Genetics & Genomes Journal 3: 49-59 The map-based sequence of the rice genome (2005) as part of International Rice Genome Sequencing Project, published in Nature 436: 793-800
The first draft of the rice genome was released on April 5, 2002. [24] In January 2003, Rodriguez received funds from the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities to create a Center of Excellence for Nutritional Genomics. [25] [26] The center was a collaborative effort with the Children's Hospital of Oakland Research ...
Besides coming out of the International Human Genome Project, other achievements of BIG included the participation of the International HapMap Project; the completion of the Chinese Superhybrid Rice (Oryza sativa L. ssp. indica) Genome Project; the collaborations of the Silkworm Genome Project and the Chicken Genome Diversity Project.
Golden rice is a variety of rice (Oryza sativa) produced through genetic engineering to biosynthesize beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, in the edible parts of the rice. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is intended to produce a fortified food to be grown and consumed in areas with a shortage of dietary vitamin A .
