Data Sheet 2_Evaluating phenotypic plasticity of reproductive traits among Korean rice cul

A dataset from 2018, 2020, and 2023 combines measurements from a controlled greenhouse and two contrasting field environments to assess phenotypic plasticity in 100 Korean rice cultivars. The data includes key reproductive traits like panicle length and total seed number across three maturity groups, analyzed using Z-score standardization and kernel density estimation. It was created by Joon Ki Hong and last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling yield potential based on panicle length and seed number variability across maturity groups.
• Analyzing environmental sensitivity of early-maturing genotypes versus buffering capacity of later-maturing groups.
• Training models to predict trait expression under different rainfall patterns and controlled conditions.
• Developing breeding strategies for climate adaptation using the multi-environment analytical framework.

Strengths

• Includes data from 100 distinct Korean rice cultivars representing three maturity groups.
• Combines precision-controlled greenhouse measurements with field data from a dry year (2018) and a wet year (2020).
• Specific trait ranges are provided, such as panicle length from 17.99 cm to 22.10 cm.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is small at 139.4 KB, indicating limited scope.
