Abstract: Among the breeding lines R-RF-90, Mahamaya and MTU-1010 ranked relatively superior regarding there morpho- physiological and yield traits. Least reduction in yield was noticed in R-RF-89 and Vandana in rainfed and transplanted (TSD) condition. Mahamaya (57.88) exhibited maximum time to initiates the panicle followed by IR-64 (56.63). The maximum days taken to anthesis was recorded under rainfed condition (65.40) followed by irrigated (57.79) and transplanted (57.45). Mahamaya (68) exhibited maximum time to anthesis. Days to 50 % flowering was noticed maximum in rainfed condition (70.11) followed by irrigated (62.42) and transplanted (62.08). Direct sown (60.51) recorded minimum time to attain 50% flowering. Mahamaya (72.75) exhibited maximum time to days to 50 % flowering followed by IR-64 (71.38). Genotypes in direct sown condition (112.97) recorded more time to mature under different moisture regimes followed by irrigated (101.05) and rainfed condition (90.8). Rice genotypes in transplanted condition (88.25) exhibited minimum time to mature as compared to other moisture regimes. Mahamaya (110.13) exhibited maximum time to days to maturity followed by IR-64 (109.63). Among the breeding lines R-RF-90, Mahamaya and MTU-1010 ranked relatively superior regarding there morpho- physiological and yield traits. Least reduction in yield was noticed in R-RF-89 and Vandana in rainfed and transplanted (TSD) condition.
