Article Synopsis
- Drought stress significantly affects rice production, particularly during the reproductive stage, leading to substantial yield losses, highlighting the need for drought-resistant rice cultivars.
- The study identified 35 quantitative trait loci (QTLs) related to yield and traits under drought conditions, with 23 QTLs specifically linked to stresses during the reproductive phase, using a detailed genetic mapping approach involving 3417 SNP markers.
- Major QTLs associated with critical traits like plant height and grain yield were discovered, along with thousands of candidate genes that could help improve drought tolerance in rice varieties.
