ABSTRACT
About 13% of the worlds 156 million ha of rice is cultivated as rainfed rice under upland conditions where moisture
stress affects rice growth and reduces grain yield and quality. Water stress affects plant growth and development and ultimately,
reduces grain yield of rice. The reduction in yield may depend on the developmental stage of the crop. The response of rice yield
to soil water status varies with growth stage being most sensitive at flowering, followed by booting and grain filling stage. More
reduction in grain yield, due to water stress in flowering stage, is largely resulted from the reduction in fertile panicle and filled
grain percentage. Water stress also promoted the remobilization of stored carbon reserves and water deficit during grain-filling
enhanced plant senescence and accelerated grain-filling. It is generally believed that rice quality is determined both genetically
and environmentally. Soil water status, especially during the grain filling period, has a dramatic influence on grain quality of rice.
Key words: Grain quality, rice, water stress,
INTRODUCTION
Rice is one of the most important crop in the world,
growing in over 156 million hectares of land having overall
worldwide production (paddy rice) of 650 million tons per
annum. Now, rice is being grown in 117 countries and is a staple
food for 17 countries in Asia and the Pacific, eight countries in
Africa, seven countries in Latin America and the Caribbean, and
one in the Near East. When all developing countries are
considered together, rice provides 27% of dietary energy supply
and 20% of dietary protein intake. India is considered as one of
the centres of origin of rice (Oryza sativa ssp. indica) and an
important centre of its diversity (Ramiah, 1953) and it alone
produces nearly one fourth (21%) of the rice in the world, next
only to china (FAO, 2009). Rice is the staple food for its large
population and this crop is cultivated in almost all the Indian
states under a remarkably wide range of agro-climatic conditions
and ecological situations. Conventional flooded rice cultivation
in Asian provides more than 75% of the world rice supply for the
half the earths main staple food (Qin et al., 2006). To keep up
with population growth and income-induced demand for food in
most Asian counties, rice production needs to increase in coming
decades.
