TL;DR: A large multi-institutional project, "From QTL to variety: marker-assisted breeding of abiotic stress tolerant rice varieties with major QTLs for drought, submergence and salt tolerance" was initiated in 2010 to improve rice productivity in the fragile ecosystems of eastern, northeastern and southern part of the country.
Journal ArticleDOI
Breeding resilient and productive genotypes adapted to drought-prone rainfed ecosystem of India
Satish B. Verulkar,N.P. Mandal,J.L. Dwivedi,B.N. Singh,Pragya Sinha,R.N. Mahato,P. Dongre,Onkar Singh,Lotan Kumar Bose,Padmini Swain,Stéphane Robin,R. Chandrababu,S. Senthil,Abhinav Jain,H. E.

TL;DR: Overall, these results indicate that managed stress screening for drought tolerance, with a focus on selection for yield under stress, is effective in generating drought-tolerant cultivars.
Journal ArticleDOI
Drought yield index to select high yielding rice lines under different drought stress severities
Anitha Raman,Satish B. Verulkar,N.P. Mandal,Mukund Variar,V.D. Shukla,J.L. Dwivedi,Bazil Avinash Singh,Onkar Singh,Padmini Swain,A. K. Mall,Sabariappan Robin,R. Chandrababu,Abhinav Jain,Tilatoo Ram,Shailaja Hittalmani,Stephan M. Haefele,Hans-Peter Piepho,Arvind Kumar +17 more
TL;DR: For highly drought-prone areas, a combination of DYI with deviation in performance of genotypes under irrigated situations can enable breeders to select genotypes with no reduction in yield under favorable environments compared with currently cultivated varieties.
Journal ArticleDOI
Application of rice (Oryza sativa L.) root endophytic diazotrophic Azotobacter sp. strain Avi2 (MCC 3432) can increase rice yield under green house and field condition.
Avishek Banik,Gautam Kumar Dash,Padmini Swain,Upendra Kumar,Subhra Kanti Mukhopadhyay,Tushar Kanti Dangar +5 more
TL;DR: It can be concluded that application of this plant growth promoting endophyte can reduce a substantial amount of N-fertilizer for field application.
Journal ArticleDOI
High-yielding, drought-tolerant, stable rice genotypes for the shallow rainfed lowland drought-prone ecosystem
Arvind Kumar,Satish B. Verulkar,N.P. Mandal,Mukund Variar,V.D. Shukla,J.L. Dwivedi,B.N. Singh,Onkar Singh,Padmini Swain,A. K. Mall,Stéphane Robin,R. Chandrababu,Abhinav Jain,Stephan M. Haefele,Hans-Peter Piepho,Anitha Raman +15 more
TL;DR: The identification of improved genotypes with ability to provide stable high yield across variable environments and their release for cultivation by farmers will enable farmers to reap high yield and stable income.
