1. Selection of Plant Material

• Identify and procure a diverse set of rice genotypes and mutants with varying genetic backgrounds.
• Include drought-tolerant controls and sensitive checks for comparison.

2. Experimental Site Preparation

• Select well-defined experimental plots at the VNGCAB campus with controlled irrigation systems.
• Divide plots into two treatments:
• Well-Watered Condition (WW): Regular irrigation to maintain field capacity.
• Drought-Stressed Condition (DS): Water supply withheld at critical growth stages.

3. Experimental Design

• Use a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replicates for each genotype.
• Plot size: 5 rows per genotype, 3 meters long with 20 cm row spacing.

4. Sowing

• Date of sowing: June 15, 2024 (adjusted for monsoon onset in the region).
• Sow seeds manually, ensuring uniform spacing.
