Let be a uniruled projective manifold and let be a general point. The main result of [2] says that if the -degrees (i.e., the degrees with respect to the anti-canonical bundle of ) of all rational curves through are at least , then is a projective space. In this paper, we study the structure of when the -degrees of all rational curves through are at least . Our study uses the projective variety , called the VMRT at , defined as the union of tangent directions to the rational curves...
