Developing crops that are better adapted to abiotic stresses is important for food production in many parts of the world today. Submergence stress because of flash flooding is one of the major constraints to rice production in rainfed lowland areas of the tropics. A major QTL against such stress, Submergence1 (Sub1) was identified from indica variety FR13A. It contains a cluster of three genes, Sub1A, Sub1B and Sub1C. All three genes encode putative ethylene response factors (ERFs).
