ELITE TRANSGENIC LINES OF BASMATI-370 REVEALED HIGH LEVEL OF LODGING RESISTANCE UNDER FIELD CONDITIONS

Lodging decreases crop yield, photosynthesis and grain quality. Three transgenic lines of Basmati-370 containing two Bt genes (cry1Ac & cry2A) were evaluated in the field along with non-transgenic parent as control. The experiment was repeated for consecutive two years. Transgenic rice revealed...
