Table 2_Evaluating phenotypic plasticity of reproductive traits among Korean rice cultivar

100 Korean rice cultivars from three maturity groups were assessed for phenotypic plasticity of key reproductive traits. Data combines measurements from a precision-controlled greenhouse environment with field trials from a dry year (2018) and a wet year (2020). The dataset, created by Joon Ki Hong and last updated in March 2026, uses Z-score standardization and kernel density estimation to analyze trait distributions and environmental shifts.

Use Cases

• Modeling climate resilience based on panicle length and seed number variability across maturity groups.
• Analyzing environmental influence on reproductive trait expression using data from contrasting dry and wet field years.
• Comparing trait buffering capacity and environmental sensitivity between early-maturing and medium-late-maturing genotypes.
• Developing predictive breeding strategies by studying trait shifts between controlled greenhouse and field environments.

Strengths

• Includes data for 100 distinct Korean rice cultivars.
• Combines measurements from three distinct environments: a controlled greenhouse and two contrasting field conditions (2018 dry year, 2020 wet year).
• Reports specific trait measurements, such as panicle length ranging from 17.99 cm to 22.10 cm.
• Applies standardized analytical methods (Z-score, kernel density estimation) for cross-environment comparison.

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 (14.5 KB), indicating limited scope and likely a summary or analysis-ready table rather than raw observations.
