Abstrakt: Breeding for “weed competitive” cultivars is a prioritized goal under direct seeded rice (DSR) conditions for achieving higher grain yields. Early seedling vigour (ESV) is an imperative trait that imparts weed competitiveness through initial rapid growth and uniform crop establishment. African rice species Oryza glaberrimahas been recognised as potential donors for weed competitive traits due to their early vegetative vigour. In the present study, 29 accessions of O. glaberrimawere evaluated for early seedling vigour traits under laboratory and DSR conditions. Seedling vigour index-I and II estimated from the paper roll method under laboratory condition revealed that six O. glaberrimaaccessions (EC861796, EC861801, EC861804, EC861814, EC861819 and EC861820) had higher/similar seedling vigour indices than high vigour check Sabita. In addition, during Kharif2017 and Rabi2018, O. glaberrimaaccessions were phenotyped for nine ESV traits, e.g.seedling height, number of leaves/tillers, leaf area, shoot fresh/dry weight, absolute growth rate, specific leaf area and crop growth rate under DSR condition. Significant genetic variation and genotype × environment interaction was observed for ESV traits under DSR condition. The heritability estimates for ESV traits were ranging from low to high, indicating complex inheritance of the trait. The study identified six accessions of O. glaberrima(EC861787, EC861790, EC861792, EC861795, EC861819 and EC861820) as promising accessions with early seedling vigour based on mean performance in both seasons under direct seeded rice condition. Thus, our study demonstrated inherent nature of early seedling vigour in O. glaberrimaand these promising accessions could be exploited for breeding weed-competitive rice cultivars.
