Popis: In West Africa, rice is grown in three constrasting ecosystems, upland, phreatic, and lowland, which is characterized by differing water availability and soil properties. These ecosystems influence the predisposition of rice to disease problems, including the grain discoloration complex. Discoloration of the hull was found to be most severe in the upland, less in the phreatic, and least in the water-saturated lowland ecosystem. Caryopsis discoloration, however, showed no consistent pattern in relation to the three ecosystems and was not correlated with hull discoloration, indicating that other factors are involved.
