 ABSTRACT

A field experiment was conducted during Kharif 2014 at Adaptive Research Station, Sakhigopal, Puri, Odisha to study the biochemical traits of different rice varieties grown under waterlogged and submerged conditions. Total chlorophyll content of the leaf was found to be highest in Sabita (3.26 mg/g FW). The carbohydrate content was found highest in Sabita (68.3 mg/g of D.LW) before the submergence and the percentage of reduction of carbohydrate was low during submergence which enabled the variety to sustain and regenerate after the submergence. Proline accumulation was found less and the percentage of increase due to submergence stress is less (+27.02%).
Key words: Biochemical, Chlophyll, Proline, Rice varities, Submergence
