Rice is a staple food crop for more than half of the people around
the globe. However, salinity is the second major constraint for
yield reduction in paddy.Salt tolerant variety development is the
cheapest and easiest way to overcome this problem and for
development of salt tolerant variety screening of existing
germplasms is mandatory. Screening of germplasms under lab
condition has more advantage than screening under field condition.
Screening of salt tolerant rice germplasms should be conducted at
seedling and at reproductive stage, as these two stages are
susceptible to salinity.A study was conducted to screen 33 rice
genotypes against salt tolerance. The study includes screening by
morphological characters and subsequently validation using SSR
(Simple Sequence Repaet) markers. Most importantly this research
will indirectly ensure food security.
