Central Rice Research Institute, Cuttack-753 004 (Orissa).
Twenty-two scented rice varieties of Thailand and Vietnam were evaluated at Central Rice Research Institute, Cuttack, for their quality indices. The study revealed that Haw mki Xwai, TD-52, Xiang Gengli, Hsiang Nou-I and Khao Jao Hawn from Thailand and Tam Thomthankhoa and TamQuthankhoa from Vietnam are good donors for major quality indices. These varieties can be exploited for hybridization programme to produce better quality scented rice.
