Abstract


Paddy genotypes numbering thousand were classified based on colour and types of kernel, length/breadth ratio of grain, glume colour, grain hardness and phenol reaction. These types fell into 202 descriptor states. The most commonly (13%) occurring type was with bold grains having a L/B ratio of 2-3 and possessing straw coloured glumes. The kernels in these types were white and glutinous. The grains were medium hard and positive to phenol reaction.
