Abstract:Salinity is one of the major devastating factors restricting the rice yield particularly at germination stage. Direct seeding is an alternative approach to avoid the excessive water use for rice production. Till date, limited efforts have been conducted for rice germplasm to screen for direct seeding method against soil salinity stress. In present study, a total of 40 rice genotypes were screened using 59 microsatellite markers across the rice genome to identify the genetic diversity against salinity stress. T… Show more
