Among these is a landrace called Niyan Wee which means "drought rice" in Sinhalese.
The landrace Niyan Wee, whose name in Sinhalese means "drought rice" belongs to the indica 2 subgroup, has high herbicide scores and deep roots.
Since Niyan Wee is in this group, and its name means "drought rice" it seems highly plausible that accessions with this name are drought resistant and they certainly have deep roots when tested in herbicide screening and rhizotrons.

[November, 2015] Although the El Niño phenomenon has been affecting parts of the Philippines with season-long droughts, rice in SRI fields is successfully being harvested in Marabut and Basey on Samar Island, Philippines.
In contrary to the collective up-regulation of miR397, miR398 and miR408 under low copper conditions, these genes together with miR528 were collectively down-regulated in the leaf of drought-tolerant rice varieties under drought treatment of our study.
We also noticed that the expression level of osa-miR397a/b and osa-miR408-5p osa-miR408-5p osa-miR408-5pon in leaf and stem tissunderwas much higher in drought-freerant riconditionins than the drought susceptibleafandety with the highestemn Vandana.
Gene modules were extracted in response to drought in rice by network-based analysis, and many hub genes clustered in some rice chromosomes have been found to significantly associate with quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for drought tolerance.
Interestingly, with our sequencing data, we found three families of conserved miRNAs that showed opposite differential expression patterns between drought-tolerant and drought-susceptible rice varieties.
This could be an interesting preliminary finding as higher expression level of osa-miR528-5p osa-miR528-5p osa-miR528-5pought-tolerant rice variety in drought-free condition compared to Aday Sel and IR64.
