Races of Rice in India
Description:... This valuable alphabetical index to the literature on races of rice in India was compiled to further the study of a subject, the very enormousness of which had hitherto prevented workers from taking it up. Obviously it is not a critical index, but a guide to the literature. For that reason care has been taken in quoting from references that are short, to give the actual words as far as possible. All possible sources of information were scanned from 1896-1910 to collect these about 9000 races of rice in India which then included present territories of Pakistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan and Burma also. All the agricultural scientists, particularly agronomists and plant breeders, would certainly like to have copy of this great reference book on their tables for constant day-to-day reference.
