Abstract excerpt
Rice seedlings are often subjected to abiotic stresses, particularly flooding and submergence in lowland areas, highlighting the need to develop genotypes with improved tolerance to these conditions. This study aimed to evaluate the submergence tolerance of seven rice genotypes and identify adaptive traits associated with survival under complete submergence. Seven genotypes were phenotypically evaluated under...
