Some rice landraces and wild relatives are especially good at producing grain during a drought, while others have the ability to survive completely underwater for days or weeks at a stretch. These have proven invaluable in breeding the next generation of climate change-ready rice to prepare for the unpredictable rainfall patterns of the future.
