Abstract


ADT 40 (IE 5556) is a hybrid derivative of the cross RPW 6-13/ Sona identified from among cultures tested under All India Co-ordinated Trials. It is non-lodging and medium tall (100-115 cm) with a duration of 140-145 days. IET 5656 has recorded a mean grain yield of 4688 kg/ha inspite of prolonged water stagnation and submergence. It is resistant to blast and moderately resistant to BPH, gall midge and brown spot.
