Abstract

From progenies of cross between Co. 18 x K₂ to improve the straw of the latter, a Vellai cholam variety combining the whito pearly grains and ovate compact carhoads of K. and the juicy stalks of Co. 18 has been evolved. The recombined type showed a potential for giving increased yield over K, the batter yielding parent in initial yield trial. The variety awaits confirmatory yield trials, prior to rolonso for cultivation.
