Scientific report: "The photosynthesis and root characteristics associated with drought tolerance in rice"

In a pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the physiological characteristics and root characteristics associated with drought tolerance of rice varieties including indica rice subspecies, japonica rice subspecies, hybrid male sterility line and temperature sensitivity of wild rice species for comparison with drought-tolerant Indica rice varieties. At the effective tillering, the pot experiment was to drain the water and then dried for 4 days, then watered again.
