OsCd1V449 introgression reduces grain Cd accumulation. a Growth of 9311 and NIL after treated with or without 0.18 mg kg−1 Cd in pot-test. b, c Concentration of Cd in the brown rice and husk. Error bars indicate standard error of mean; statistical analysis was inspected using one-side paired t-test (*P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01). d Growth and grain morphologies of 9311 and NIL after treated with 1.8 mg kg−1 Cd in the field. e Plant height of 9311 and NIL. f Actual yield per plot of 9311 and NIL. g SR-μXRF images of Cd, Mn, Zn, Fe distribution in the longitudinal sections of rice grain. The emission intensity of each pixel was normalized using the beam intensity as reference. h–o Concentrations of Cd, Mn, Zn, Fe in the brown rice (h, j–l) and husk (i, m–o). 9311 were shown in red and the NIL was shown in black. In each box plot, the bold horizontal line indicates the median, the edges of the box represent the first and third quartiles, and whiskers extend to span a 1.5 interquartile range from the edges. Error bars indicate standard deviation. Statistical analysis was inspected using one-side t-test (*P < 0.05 and **P < 0.01). All data were compared with 9311 and designed with at least five replications and data points for all biological replicates are shown. Source data of Fig. 5b, c, e, f, and h–o are provided as a Source Data file
