  text: Transposable elements exist widely throughout plant genomes and play important
    roles in plant evolution. Auxin is an important regulator that is traditionally
    associated with root development and drought stress adaptation. The DEEPER ROOTING
    1 (DRO1) gene is a key component of rice drought avoidance. Here, we identified
    a transposon that acts as an autonomous auxin‐responsive promoter and its presence
    at specific genome positions conveys physiological adaptations related to drought
    avoidance. Rice varieties with high and auxin‐mediated transcription of DRO1 in
    the root tip show deeper and longer root phenotypes and are thus better adapted
    to drought. The INDITTO2 transposon contains an auxin response element and displays
    auxin‐responsive promoter activity; it is thus able to convey auxin regulation
    of transcription to genes in its proximity. In the rice Acuce, which displays
    DRO1‐mediated drought adaptation, the INDITTO2 transposon was found to be inserted
    at the promoter region of the DRO1 locus. Transgenesis‐based insertion of the
    INDITTO2 transposon into the DRO1 promoter of the non‐adapted rice variety Nipponbare
    was sufficient to promote its drought avoidance. Our data identify an example
    of how transposons can act as promoters and convey hormonal regulation to nearby
    loci, improving plant fitness in response to different abiotic stresses.
