Physiological mechanisms contributing to the QTL-combination effects on improved performance of IR64 rice NILs under drought
Drought-yield QTLs qDTY 2.2 and qDTY 4.1 improved rice variety IR64 complementarily through peak QTL effects at distinct stress levels, and by increasing root hydraulic conductance and root growth at depth.
