Abstract:Assessing genetic diversity is the key factor for enhanced crop breeding programme which aids in improving desirable characteristics in the cultivars. In the present study, 200 rice landraces were initially screened using PEG at -7 bar concentration for drought tolerance. From the 200 landraces, 12 lines with 50 % germination were chosen to assess molecular and genetic divergence. A total of 50 SSR markers were utilized across the identified 12 drought tolerant genotypes along with two susceptible and two tole… Show more
