Genotype x environment interactions for grain yield of upland rice backcross lines in diverse hydrological environments (2008, background): “Breeders typically select for traits in one environment, or less frequently, in a two-way combination of lowland, upland dry- or wet-season environments (Atlin et al., 2006; Lafitte et al., 2006).”
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): “…Atlin International Wheat and Maize Improvement Center (CIMMYT), Apdo Postal 6-641, 06600 Mexico City, Mexico are difficult to impose even when managed-stress screening is performed during the dry season (Courtois et al. 2000; Lafitte et al. 2006; Venuprasad et al. 2007; Bernier et al. 2008).”
Phenotypic and genotypic analysis of drought-resistance traits for development of rice cultivars adapted to rainfed environments (2008, background): “A controlled drought environment can be established more readily in the dry season (e.g., Lafitte et al., 2006), but the environment may not represent that of the farmer’s fields in the wet season and will confound the effects of photoperiod in sensitive genotypes.”
Genetic engineering and breeding of drought-resistant crops. (2014, background): “The backcross progenies derived from these crosses that showed higher yields than the recurrent parents were selected in severe-drought lowland or upland nurseries (52).”
Improvement of drought resistance in rice. (2009, background): “focused on the confirmation of drought-resistant breeding lines and identification of new potential donors of drought resistance within genebank germplasm collections and molecular breeding lines developed by backcrossing a series of donors to one of three elite recurrent parents (Lafitte et al., 20”
Drought Resistance Improvement in Rice: An Integrated Genetic and Resource Management Strategy (2011, background): “・Proof of concept that conventional breeding based on direct selection for yield under artificially imposed drought stress can result in actual gains in drought resistance (Venuprasad et al., 2007; Kumar et al., 2008; Lafi tte et al. 2006; Jongdee et al., 2006).”
Advances in Drought Resistance of Rice (2009, unknown): “…et al. (2008) — Mild stress 15–54% Jian-Chang et al. (2008) — Mild stress 10–38% Atlin et al. (2006) — Severe stress 56–76% Atlin et al. (2006) Heading — 23% Lafitte et al. (2006) Grain filling Mild stress 19% Lanceras et al. (2004) Flowering Short severe stress 54% Lanceras et al. (2004)…”
