However, this success has been limited in the rainfed systems, which are prone to frequent droughts and other abiotic stresses. Worldwide, drought affects approximately 23 million hectares of rainfed rice. Varieties combining improved drought resistance with high yield under favorable conditions and quality characteristics preferred by farmers are the most promising and deliverable technologies for alleviating poverty 606 $aRice$xGenetics 606 $aRice$xGenetic engineering 606 $aRice$xBreeding 606 $aGrain$xDrought tolerance 615 0$aRice$xGenetics. 615 0$aRice$xGenetic engineering. 615 0$aRice$xBreeding. 615 0$aGrain$xDrought tolerance. 676 $a633.1/8 676 $a633.18 701 $aSerraj$b Rachid$0980305 701 $aBennett$b J$01134195 701 $aHardy$b Bill$01495452 712 02$aInternational Rice Research Institute. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780715403321 996 $aDrought frontiers in rice$93866678 997 $aUNINA
