Other claims from this paper (6)
- Association Grain yield was positively and significantly associated with panicle length, grain weight and panicle bearing tillers per plant.
- Association Spikelets per panicle had the highest direct positive effect on grain yield, followed by panicle bearing tillers per plant.
- Recommendation Direct selection for longer panicle, higher grain weight, more panicle bearing tillers and longer grain is recommended to improve grain yield.
- Observation Panicle bearing tillers per plant contributed to grain yield almost independently of other traits.
- Recommendation Spikelets per panicle, with the highest direct positive effect, could be used as an indirect selection criterion.
- Recommendation Secondary branches per panicle were very effective for selection, particularly for quality rices with relatively lower grain weight.
