Morphological, transcriptomic and proteomic responses of contrasting rice genotypes towards drought stress

Rice is a global staple crop that has a large requirement of water at various growth and developmental stages. As a matter of fact, drought can substantially reduce rice yield. The traits responsible for drought tolerance can be selected and studied to improve rice growth and yield under stress conditions. In the present study, morphological, physiological, biochemical and molecular variations between drought tolerant (PB6 and Moroberakan) and...
