Root Phenotyping for Drought Tolerance: A Review (2018, background): “Several root characters such as morphological plasticity [22,23], root tip diameter [24], gravitropism [25], and rhizosheaths [26] allow the plants to adapt and respond to various environmental factors and they might be quite useful for improving water use efficiency in crop species [27].”
Root traits contributing to plant productivity under drought (2013, background): “More recently Uga et al. (2013) have identified and cloned the DRO1 gene in rice on chromosome 9 which is associated with rooting depth due to an increased gravitropic response in root tips.”
The transcriptional regulatory network in the drought response and its crosstalk in abiotic stress responses including drought, cold, and heat (2014, background): “Keywords: ABA, transcription factor, signal transduction, abiotic stress, drought”
Effect of various drought stresses and subsequent recovery on proline, total soluble sugar and starch metabolisms in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties (2019, result): “Kinandang Patong and Moroberekan were defined as drought tolerant varieties in previous studies (Dixit et al., 2014; Uga et al., 2013) and used as the checked varieties in this experiment.”
