Irrigated rice breeding project for Northeast Thailand was carried out to improve photoperiod insensitive glutinous rice variety for blast disease and gall midge resistant. The selected promising line; KKN04023-NKI-14-2-6-1, was finally obtained. The promising line was selected from the population of the cross between PTT97100-B-116-3-3 and KKN97031-NKI-B-B-122-1-1 which PTT97100-B-116-3-3 was used as female parent and KKN97031-NKI-B-B-122-1-1 as male parent. This line is photoperiod insensitive glutinous rice. Its harvesting time is about 131 days after sowing, plant height was 120 cm. The average yield of this line grown in Rice Research Center paddy fields was 614 kg/rai and on farmers field was 684 kg/rai. Rice hull color was brown, grain length of... |
