520			_aBreeding for drought tolerance is a challenging task because of the complexity of drought responses, environmental factors, and their interactions. Conventional breeding approaches have been successful, but progress has been slow. Recent advances in genome mapping and functional genomic technologies provide new powerful tools for the genetic dissection of drought tolerance components. It is anticipated that molecular genetic research will provide high-throughput DNA marker systems for marker-assisted selection that will be more efficient and effective in combing out favorable drought tolerance traits in breeding programs. It will also lead to a better understanding of the molecular basis of the genes underlying drought tolerance, which can be used in a genetic engineering program for drought tolerance improvement.
