Inducing drought tolerance in plants: recent advances. (2010, methodology): “Despite the identification of QTL for growth or physiological phenomena related to drought tolerance, QTL for yield and yield components in rice have also been identified (Bernier et al., 2008).”
Preflowering Abortion Reduces Spikelet Number in Upland Rice (Oryza sativa L.) under Water Stress (2008, background): “) is more susceptible to water stress than other upland crops (Angus et al., 1983; Bernier et al., 2008), and its yield is greatly aff ected by fl uctuations in the water supply (Yang et al.”
Characterization of the effect of a QTL for drought resistance in rice, qtl12.1, over a range of environments in the Philippines and eastern India (2009, background): “…of QTL effects across different populations (QTL 9 genetic background interaction) and across environments (QTL 9 environment interaction) are two factors limiting the use of QTL for MAS by plant breeders (Price et al. 2002; Courtois et al. 2003; Lafitte et al. 2004a; Bernier et al. 2008).”
Recent methods of drought stress tolerance in plants (2017, background): “In many crops such as maize, wheat, barley, cotton, sorghum, and rice QTL mapping for the drought tolerance trait has been done (Bernier 2008).”
Bridging the Rice Yield Gaps under Drought: QTLs, Genes, and their Use in Breeding Programs (2017, background): “Undesirable genetic linkages, QTL × genetic background (Q × G), and QTL × environmental interaction (Q × E) play an important role in restricting the use of QTLs in marker-assisted breeding [109,186,187].”
Advances in Drought Resistance of Rice (2009, background): “Recent studies have shown that these traits are unlikely to have higher broad-sense heritability than grain yield under drought stress and are often not highly correlated with grain yield (Atlin and Lafitte, 2002; Bernier et al., 2008).”
Drought Resistance Improvement in Rice: An Integrated Genetic and Resource Management Strategy (2011, background): “…related to grain yield under drought stress have been reported on numerous occasions in rice (Babu et al., 2003; Lafi tte et al., 2004; Lanceras et al., 2004; Bernier et al., 2007; Kumar et al., 2007), but there have been no reports of the successful use of such QTLs in MAS (Bernier et al., 2008).”
