Water Logging Tolerant Clone for Cultivation in Marginal Land

摘要

TRA garden series clones Sanyasithan 8 (SNT-8), Sanyasithan 9 (SNT-9), Sanyasithan 10 (SNT-10) and Sanyasithan 27 (SNT-27) were evaluated under full root zone submergence to ascertain the degree of tolerance to water logging (flooding). The sleeve grown plants were kept under full root zone submergence for a period of 45 days. Morphological, physiological and biochemical changes were quantified at different time interval upto 45 days. Finally, SNT-10 was found to be the highly tolerant clone to water logging.
