The laboratory experiments were conducted in university lab entitled “Physical and chemical studies of some Short grain and Medium slender aromatic rice (Oryza sativa L.)” on the basis of the results obtained from the present study under the investigation of head rice recovery, grain length, grain breadth, length breadth ratio, alkali spreading value and amylose content are concluded as the head rice recovery ranged from per cent. Data exhibited that maximum head rice recovery per cent was obtained in R-3719 followed by R-3715, ., per cent and minimum per cent in Kalmunhi followed by R-3734 ., per cent. The seed length varied from mm. The maximum seed length was found mm in R-3738, followed by R-3728 ., and minimum for R-3715, . mm, followed by R-3730 ., . The seed breadth, varied from mm. The maximum seed breadth was found mm in R-3746,, followed by R-3724 ., and minimum for R-3738, . mm, followed by R-3747 ., mm. The length breadth ratio was ranged from mm. Maximum L: B ratio was recorded with R-2804 ., mm. followed by Kala Namak ., mm and minimum length breadth ratio are found in R-3720 ., mm. followed by R-3737 ., mm. The Alkali spreading value was ranged from 360×500-600×466, respectively. The maximum alkali spreading value were obtained in R-3738 ., 600×466, respectively, followed by R-3722 and R-2802 ., 600×400, respectively while minimum alkali spreading value, were recorded in R-3747 that was 360×500 Followed by R-3746 that was 365×466 respectively. | Physical and chemical studies of some short grain and medium slender aromatic rice (Oryza sativa L.)
