Rice growing in a flooded field at the Texas A&M AgriLife Research Center, in Beaumont, Texas. Scientists are studying the rice under both flooded and unflooded field conditions to see how differences in soil chemistry caused by flooding affect mineral accumulation in rice grains. Here, ARS geneticist Shannon Pinson (left) and AgriLife technician Yao Zhou inspect rice plants in a flooded rice field at the research center.
