Improvement of Rice Production under Drought Conditions in West Africa: Application of QTLs in Breeding for Drought Resistance
Rice plays a paramount role in food and nutrition security in many West African countries. Despite the doubling of production during the last decade, rice consumption has grown faster, creating a deficit between the demand and supply. Although the West African sub-region remains the main rice-produc...
