With global warming, drought and water shortage have become one of the important factors limiting rice production. Improving the drought resistance of rice can effectively alleviate the loss of rice yield caused by drought. In this paper, the research progress on rice drought resistance and its evaluation methods, mapping of QTLs for drought resistance-related traits, and mining for drought resistance genes were reviewed, and molecular breeding for drought resistance in rice was prospected.展开更多
