We repeated the analysis in the presence or absence of RecA* and found the same overall patterns of tolerant and restrictive positions with this alternative stimulus for autoproteolysis.
a Extent of salt tolerant accessions, b-d Geographic distribution pattern of salt tolerant (SES score 1-3) accessions, b Latitude-wise distribution, c Longitude-wide distribution, d Area of preference, e-g Geographic distribution pattern of highly salt tolerant (SES score 1) accessions, e Latitude-wise distribution, f Longitude-wide distribution, g Area of preference.
a Extent of cold tolerant accessions, b-d Geographic distribution pattern of cold tolerant (SES score 1-3) accessions, b Latitude-wise distribution, c Longitude-wide distribution, d Area of preference, e-g Geographic distribution pattern of highly cold tolerant (SES score 1) accessions, e Latitude-wise distribution, f Longitude-wide distribution, g Area of preference.
a Extent of alkali tolerant accessions, b-d Geographic distribution pattern of alkali tolerant (SES score 1-3) accessions, b Latitude-wise distribution, c Longitude-wide distribution, d Area of preference, e-g Geographic distribution pattern of highly alkali tolerant (SES score 1) accessions, e Latitude-wise distribution, f Longitude-wide distribution, g Area of preference.
Thus, the recurrence of Bangladesh as the area of preference of highly salt tolerant rice accessions in independent studies clearly validated the specific distribution pattern of salt tolerant rice.
Remarkably, we identified a shared geographic distribution pattern of highly tolerant accessions for all abiotic stresses including zinc deficiency despite the sparseness of highly tolerant accessions.
