Engineering drought tolerance in rice needs to focus on regulators that enhance tolerance while boosting plant growth and vigor. The present study delineated the concealed function and tissue-mediated interplay of the miR408/target module in imparting drought stress tolerance in rice. The plant miR408 family comprises three dominant mature forms (21 nt), including a distinct monocot variant (F-7 with 5' C) and is divided into six groups.
