- Observation Sixteen rice BILs showed more than 10% yield gain under both moderate and severe stress.
- Observation BILs I85 and W61 showed better recovery under drought.
- Observation BIL I85 showed the best score for leaf rolling, leaf drying and drought recovery.
- Observation BIL I85 showed higher SPAD value and proline content.
- Observation BIL W61 showed higher values for SPAD, relative water content and proline content.
- Observation BIL W61 showed higher values for leaf drying score.
- Observation These two BILs had more than 10% higher single plant yield than the recurrent parent ADT (R) 45.
- Recommendation The authors consider the two BILs for further national and state-level trials.
