RICE TPS 5, NON-LODGING SHORT BOLD GRAIN VARIETY
Abstract
The culture, TP 08010 with higher yield, cooking quality characteristics was developed from Agricultural Research Station, Thirupathisaram of Tamil Nadu Agricultural Univerisity for cultivation during Kar/late pishanam season. TP 08010 is a derivative of the cross between ASD16 and ADT37 with the duration of 118 days. This culture with erect medium tall stature, moderate productive tillering, long droopy panicles with complete fertility and long erect boot leaf possesses all the characters of the rice variety ASD 16. This culture recorded a mean grain yield of 6300 Kg/ha over 5 years of station trials with 14.7 per cent yield improvement over ASD16 besides exhibiting good record under different field trials inclusive of MLT’s and ART’s. The culture, TP 08010 is moderately resistant to stem borer, leaf folder, gall midge BPH and WBPH under field conditions. It produces short bold white rice with intermediate amylose, soft gel consistency and moderate gelatinization temperature. It produces good quality cooked rice.
