Hanyou 3015: a water-saving and drought-resistance rice cultivar for dry cultivation in southern China

Abstract

Hanyou 3015 is a new Indica hybrid of water-saving and drought-resistance rice (WDR), combining rapid maturation and high yield potential. Whole genome sequencing results show that Hanyou 3015 carries many superior alleles that could explain its drought tolerance, high water use efficiency, rapid maturation, and wide adaptability.
