The field experiment exhibited the effects of drought stress on two rice cultivars, LvHan and AiXian (LvHan: drought tolerant and AiXian: drought sensitive), which are evident when compared to the control treatments. (A) LvHan (Drought) is subjected to drought stress at the early heading stage, and LvHan (Control) undergoes well-watered conditions throughout the growth cycle. (B) AiXian (Drought) is subjected to drought stress at the early heading stage, and AiXian (Control) undergoes well-watered conditions throughout the growth cycle. The experiment was grown in field conditions; drought stress was imposed at the heading stage. For drought treatments, irrigation stopped till leaves started wilting, and sprinkler irrigation resumed till harvesting maturity. Photos were taken after the flowering stage.
