Molecular Characterization of a Rice Plant with Mutated Leucine Carboxyl Methyl Transferase Gene

Abiotic stress is the main factor negatively affecting crop growth and productivity worldwide. Especially, rice is sensitive to various abiotic stresses. Drought is undoubtedly one of the most important stresses that have a huge impact on crop growth and productivity. An insensitive mutant line would be very useful for breeding program and molecular genetics.
