| - Wild rice is a kind of unruly rice. When a lit candle was poorly transfigured into a purple rabbit that ran away from the Transfiguration class, Harry Potter was put in charge of finding it. When asking help from Professor Sprout, she said she could not help him, as she was busy taming some wild rice.
- Wild rice was a type of grain eaten as a food. In 2373, to distract a distressed Harry Kim, Tom Paris told him to think about "Crown roast of lamb, with a bed of wild rice, and a 2296 Chateau Lafite Rothschild at the real Sandrine's". (VOY: "The Chute") In 2378, Seven of Nine served a holographic version of Chakotay rack of lamb with wild rice. (VOY: "Human Error")
- Wild rice also called Zizania palustris, is native to North America and grows for the most part in the Great Lakes area. Wild rice is member of grass family (Poaceae) and has been eaten by people ever since primitive periods. Wild rice is a dietary grain that provides as an alternate for potatoes or rice, and is used in a wide variety of foods such as dressings, casseroles, soups, salads, and desserts. In our days, wild rice has been used in breakfast cereals, and mixes for pancakes, muffins, and cookies. This grain has a high protein and carbohydrate content, and is very low in fat. Mineral content of wild rice, which is high in potassium and phosphorus, compares positively with wheat and corn. Processed wild rice has no vitamin A, except serves as an exceptional supply of the B vitamins:
- Wild rice is any of the four species of plants that make up the genus Zizania (common names: Canada rice, Indian rice, and water oats), a group of grasses that grow in shallow water in small lakes and slow-flowing streams; often, only the flowering head of wild rice rises above the water. The genus is closely related to true rice, genus Oryza, which is also a grass, and shares the tribe Oryzeae. Three species of wild rice are native to North America: One species is native to Asia:
* Manchurian wild rice (Z. latifolia; incorrect synonym: Z. caduciflora), is a perennial native to China.

Wild rice is a dietary grain that provides as an alternate for potatoes or rice, and is used in a wide variety of foods such as dressings, casseroles, soups, salads, and desserts.

Mineral content of wild rice, which is high in potassium and phosphorus, compares positively with wheat and corn. Processed wild rice has no vitamin A, except serves as an exceptional supply of the B vitamins: thiamine, riboflavin, and niacin. Wild rice is well adapted to northern latitudes. Wild rice is frequently produced on low, wet land that has never or hardly ever been worked. Over the world are many other names given to wild rice include Canadian rice, squaw rice, water oats, blackbird oats, and marsh oats. Wild rice is an important nutrient which is used in preparing the most important meals of a day.
- Wild rice is any of the four species of plants that make up the genus Zizania (common names: Canada rice, Indian rice, and water oats), a group of grasses that grow in shallow water in small lakes and slow-flowing streams; often, only the flowering head of wild rice rises above the water. The genus is closely related to true rice, genus Oryza, which is also a grass, and shares the tribe Oryzeae. Three species of wild rice are native to North America:
* Northern wild rice (Zizania palustris) is an annual plant native to the Great Lakes region of North America, the aquatic areas of the Boreal Forest regions of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Northern wild rice is the state grain of the U.S. state of Minnesota. Harvesting wild rice by canoe is still practiced in these regions.
* Wild rice (Z. aquatica), also an annual, grows in the Saint Lawrence River and on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the United States.
* Texas wild rice (Z. texana) is a perennial plant only found in a small area along the San Marcos River in central Texas. One species is native to Asia:
* Manchurian wild rice (Z. latifolia; incorrect synonym: Z. caduciflora), is a perennial native to China. Texas wild rice is in danger of extinction due to loss of suitable habitat in its limited range and to pollution. The pollen of Texas wild rice can only travel about 30 inches away from a parent plant. If pollen does not land on a receptive female flower within that distance, no seeds are produced. Manchurian wild rice has almost disappeared from the wild in its native range, but has been accidentally introduced into the wild in New Zealand and is considered an invasive species there.
