Brassinosteroids and benzylaminopurine increase yield in IR50 indica rice

Krishnan, S.; Azhakanandam, K.; Ebenezer, G.A.I.; Samson, N.P.; Dayanandan, P. (Current Science. 76(2); 1999; 145-147.)

We investigated the effects of brassinosteroids (BR) and several other plant hormones and other plant growth regulators (PGRs) on the vegetative and reproductive growth of IR50 rice. This report focusses on the promising ...
Histochemical localization of storage components in caryopsis of rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Krishnan, S.; Ebenezer, G.A.I.; Dayanandan, P. (Current Science. 80(4); 2001; 567-571.)

The pattern of distribution of major storage components of IR50 rice caryopsis was investigated and compared with several other cultivars and 17 wild species of Oryza. Starch occurs abundantly in the pericarp during early ...
Structure of rice caryopsis in relation to strategies for enhancing yield

Ebenezer, G.A.I.; Krishnan, S.; Dayanandan, P. (Rice Research for Food Security and Poverty Alleviation. Ed. by: S. Peng and B. Hardy. IRRI, Philippines. 2001; 109-117.)

Rice varieties with higher yield potential can be developed by increasing the number of grains per area, by increasing the grain weight, or by a combination of both. Our studies on the structure, histochemistry, grain ...
