Consistent with our expectation, selection experiments from more than 80 backcross populations revealed that the redundant branching pattern was prevalent in rice genetic networks for drought tolerance (DT) and ST (unpublished data).

Arsonists begin copying them, investigators said, aided by wind, miles of drought-created tinder and the steep hills that are prevalent throughout the state, which make for far better fire-spreading conditions than flat land.
Examination of the prevalent abiotic stresses represented in PASmiR demonstrated miRNA involvement was most often reported in stresses of drought, low temperature, high salt, and phosphate (Pi) deficiency.
Droughts come and droughts go.
