Abstract:
An experiment was conducted with 52 germplasm lines of rice genotypes under three environmental conditions (IR-Irrigated, RF-Rainfed and TSD-Terminal Stage Drought) during Kharif 2018 and 2019. Highly significant differences among the genotypes for all thirteen yield traits in three conditions were observed based on pooled data. The highest mean value in IR condition was observed in the trait biological yield. Harvest index and number of filled grains showed high PCV and GCV coupled with high heritability and genetic advance. Harvest index was the only trait to show significant association with grain yield in all the three water regimes. Likewise, biological yield and harvest index reported to have high direct effect on grain yield. Thus, direct the selection of these traits will certainly be rewarding for improving the yield.
