The indica ecotypes, IR64, an elite drought-susceptible variety adapted to irrigated ecosystem, and Apo (IR55423-01 or NSIC RC9), a moderate drought-tolerant upland genotype together with their hybrid (IR64 × Apo) were exposed to non- and water-stress conditions. By sequencing (RNA-seq) these genotypes, we were able to map genes diverging in cis and/or trans factors. Under non-stress condition, cis dominantly explains (11.
