Qualitative Morphological Characterisation and Assessment of Genetic Diversity among Indigenous Landraces of Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Surveying 254 rice accessions from Madhya Pradesh against 30 standardised DUS descriptors, researchers found near-total uniformity in basic leaf traits but the widest variation of the whole study in awn length — a practical shortlist of traits for telling indigenous landraces apart.
