Abstract


An attempt to evolve a high yielding medium duration rice variety for second season in Tamil Nadu has resulted in the isolation of a promising culture AD 85004. It outyielded both IR 20 and CO 43 with multiple resistance to major pests and diseases. It is a semi-tall type with a duration of 130-135 days. The rice is white with medium slender fine quality. Hence, it is released as ADT 38 for Samba/thaladi season in Tamil Nadu to replace IR 20 and CD 43.
