Optimizing Sowing and Flooding Depth for Anaerobic Germination-Tolerant Genotypes to Enhance Crop Establishment, Early Growth, and Weed Management in Dry-Seeded Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Optimizing Sowing and Flooding Depth for Anaerobic Germination-Tolerant Genotypes to Enhance Crop Establishment, Early Growth, and Weed Management in Dry-Seeded Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Poor crop establishment, high weed infestation, and consequent yield loss are major concerns for dry-seeded rice (DSR). Flooding after seeding helps in managing weeds but reduces seed germination and crop stand. Anaerobic germination (AG)-tolerant rice genotypes could overcome these problems in DSR....
