Assessment of genetic diversity of drought tolerant and susceptible rice genotypes using microsatellite markers

The introgression of wild chromosomal segments into popular rice varieties is one of the potential approaches for developing varieties for drought stress condition

Abstract

The introgression of wild chromosomal segments into popular rice varieties is one of the potential approaches for developing varieties for drought stress condition. 16 genotypes, including 9 indica, 2 tropical japonica and 5 chromosome segments substitution lines (CSSLs) with different levels of tolerance/susceptibility to drought stress, were selected for diversity study.

This is a publication arising from the Sustainable Crop production for International Development (SCPRID) programme.
