Abstract

The demand for aromatic rice is rising as a result of its ability to find superior alleles that govern morphological, agronomic, and qualitative criteria. Additionally, genetic diversity contributes to molecular attributes. In order to determine a basic collection for breeding high-yielding varieties, the present study was carried out at P. N. Bhaduri Crop Research and Seed Multiplication Farm (PNBCRSMF) area of the University of Burdwan, Tarabag, Burdwan, West Bengal, during Kharif 2023 and 2024. This work describes the characterisation of panicles in aromatic rice. The architecture of the panicles directly affects grain yield and is a crucial factor in determining the reproductive success of rice plants. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential for crop development initiatives by comparing the genetic variance of panicle parameters in eight aromatic rice throughout the study area. The aromatic rice showed morphological differences in terms of panicle parameters such as panicle length, weight, test weight, panicle number, grains/panicle, and chaffs/panicle. The greater panicle weight, larger grains/panicle, and panicle length of some aromatic rice varieties—Radhatilak, Kalonunia, and Sitabhog make them desirable for next rice breeding initiatives.
