water stress and, in this regard, it is necessary to improve rice cultivars to tolerance to environmental stresses. In this research 154 recombinant inbred lines (F9) derived from a cross between Shah-Pasand and IR28 in three conditions (non-stress, osmotic stress -0.3 and -0.6 Mpa induced through polyethylene glycol-6000) were evaluated as a factorial experiment in randomized complete block de...
