Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Rice is the prominent crop of world and it frames the important component of food chain. But, long duration of highly preferred rice varieties requires more water and are prone to biotic and abiotic stresses. Short duration rice varieties serve as a promising alternative in such cases. Hence, the present study was taken up to induce early flowering mutants in popular rice variety Bapatla 2231 (BPT 2231),...
