root system architecture (RSA) consists of several structural features, which includes number …

Cereals are important crops worldwide that help meet food demands and nutritional needs.
In recent years, cereal production has been challenged globally by frequent droughts and …

Background: Rice is the main staple food for the global population and drought is one of the
limited factor in rice production. In this research, progeny of a cross between an adapted US …

Meta-QTL (MQTL) analysis is a robust approach for genetic dissection of complex
quantitative traits. Rice varieties adapted to non-flooded cultivation are highly desirable in …

Global food shortages are caused mainly by drought, the primary driver of yield loss in
agriculture worldwide. Drought stress negatively impacts the physiological and …

Abiotic stresses are the primary threat to crop production across the globe. Drought stress is
primary abiotic stress which is considerably limiting the global rice production and putting …

Climate change augments the risk to food security by inducing drought stress and a drastic
decline in global rice production. Plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) have been known …

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is an important food crop that belongs to family Gramineae and needs
a larger amount of water to complete its life cycle as compared to other crops. Hence, rice …

Drought stress leads to a significant amount of agricultural crop loss. Thus, with changing
climatic conditions, it is important to develop resilience measures in agricultural systems …

Environmental stresses, such as drought, have negative effects on crop yield. Drought is a
stress whose impact tends to increase in some critical regions. However, the worldwide …
