Fischer KS, Fukai S, Kumar A, Leung H and Jongdee B (2012). Field phenotyping strategies and breeding for adaptation of rice to drought. Frontiers in Plant Physiology 3:282. (DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2012.00282).

This paper is a section of the book “Drought phenotyping in crops: from theory to practice” (Monneveux Philippe and Ribaut Jean-Marcel eds, published by CGIAR Generation Chal-lenge Programme. Texcoco, Mexico). The section describes recent experience in drought phenotyping in rice which is one of the most drought-susceptible crops. The section contains genetic and genomic resources for drought adaptation and methods for selection of drought-resistant varieties in rice. In appendix, there is experience from Thailand on integration of direct selection for grain yield and physiological traits to confer drought resistance.
