Abstract
Proper waste management will reduce several pollutions arising out of burning of different agri-wastes such as stubble burning of rice. The lignocellulose in the dry matter, can be converted into various essential products including biofuel through gasification and pyrolysis. This will help to reduce the cost by minimizing the import of petroleum products. A productive sustainable strategy is the development of energy-efficient rice varieties possessing desirable biomass traits without undermining the yield potential. For this sufficient genetic variability should be available to develop suitable dual-purpose varieties. Considering these points, initially, the molecular diversity in popular varieties for biomass traits was explored using cellulose synthase specific markers. An archeopteryx tree constructed thereof indicated the presence of sufficient diversity among the varieties. Eight potential varieties, having sufficient diversity among each other, were selected as parents for develo** dual- purpose hybrids. Some of the superior crosses identified concerning both grain and straw yield per plant were Kanchan/Meher, Kanchan/Pratikshya, Pratikshya/Ankit, Hiranmayee/Chandrama and Kanchan/Meher. The crosses including Kanchan/Pratikshya, Meher/Pratikshya, Meher/Ankit, Pratikshya/Hiranmayee, Hiranmayee/Gobinda, Hiranmayee/Pradeep and Gobinda/Pradeep exhibited both positive significant relative heterosis and heterobeltiosis for the biochemical traits. Non-additive gene action was reported to involve in the inheritance of traits viz., plant height, biochemical traits and grain yield, whereas additive gene action played a crucial role in the inheritance of traits viz., leaf area, seed weight and straw yield.
