Title: Development of superior somaclones of aromatic local cultivar of rice (Oryza sativa L.)
Abstract: The traditional local aromatic rice cultivars are poor combiners. Here we report development of superior somaclones plants through tissue culture. The somaclones, TC 4/8 had the maximum yield followed by TC 5-1, TC 4/4, TC 4/5, and TC 4/7. Yield increase of TC 4/8, TC-5-1 was 54.75% and 50.33% more over the yield of parental cultivar, respectively. The plant tissue culture thus may be recommended to create genetic variability in rice as a trustworthy biotechnological tool.
