Assessing Drought Resilience and Identification of High Yielding Upland Rice Varieties through Phenology, Growth and Yield Traits

Drought stress is the major yield limiting factor in upland rice production where the moisture availability is highly variable.

Drought stress is the major yield limiting factor in upland rice production where the moisture availability is highly variable. Understanding and evaluating how upland rice responds to drought stress is critical to improving resilience and yield stability. In this study…
