Abstract


For scientific crop breeding approach, a precise knowledge of anthesis and pollination is the prerequisite. Since anthesis and pollination vary greatly according to the environment in which the crop is grown, a detailed study of these two aspects has to be made at the locality where the hybridization programme is carried out. Closely with the study of anthesis and pollination, various artificial hybridization techniques under the same environment have to be experimented with a view to fix up the best. Under Coimbatore conditions, since a comparative study of different hybridiation techniques and the nature of anthesis in rice was not made before, this item of work was undertaken at the Paddy Breeding Station, Coimbatore between 1959 and 1961.
