AI-powered hybrid rice breeding platform launched in Hunan

To further develop the platform, Li suggested enhancing its decision-making tools by integrating more germplasm, genomic, phenotypic, and environmental data. He also called for closer collaboration among universities, research institutes, and enterprises to break down information silos.

"It is important that we create an open platform that serves the country and the world, becoming a vital public resource and cooperation hub for intelligent rice breeding," Li added.
