Principal component analysis for grain quality characters in rice germplasm

Rice is the dietary staple for more than one third of the world’s population and it is a model cereal species serving as the genetic platform to study the functions of the genes. In the present study, twenty four genotypes were studied for the thirteen grain quality traits. Principal Component Anal...
