The drought-tolerant crop plants, including rice, are required for fulfilling food requirements when drought occurs in Indonesia. The response to drought stress in rice cultivars could be studied based on the morphological, anatomical and physiological characteristics. This study evaluated the drought tolerance based on the physiological characteristics at the vegetative phase in six rice cultivars cultivated in North Sulawesi, Indonesia.
