Screening of rice genotypes to classify efficient and responsive cultivars based on nitrogen use efficiency
Author(s): K Sivasabari and S Jothimani
Abstract: Screening experiment was conducted during 2017, pishanam season at Rice Research Station, Ambasamudram with the objective to screen the efficient and responsive rice genotypes based on nitrogen use efficiency under 32 rice genotypes as main plot treatment and four nitrogen levels N0 (control), N1 (50% recommended dose of N ha-1), N2 (100% recommended dose of N ha-1) and N3 (150% recommended dose of N ha-1) as subplot treatments. The experimental results showed that, the highest grain and straw yields were recorded at N3 (180 kg ha-1) by the most of the rice genotypes, except the AS 12051, ACK 14004, CB08702, CB 13539 and PM 12009 which were not responded genotypes for higher dose of (180 kg ha-1) nitrogen. In the genotypes ASD 16, ADT 43, ADT 45, CO 51, MDU 5, CB 14508, CB 14533, TR 0927, TR 13069 and TM 12061 the AE was increasing with increasing level of nitrogen, other genotypes showed decreasing sequence with increasing level of nitrogen levels. The genotypes viz., ASD16, ADT39, ADT45, TPS 5, AD09206, CB06803, ACK14001, TM10085, TM12007, PM12009 and EC725224 are under Efficient and responsive (ER) category which gives average yield at low level and high N use efficiency.
