Abstract
The experiment describes the patterns of plant height, days required for booting, heading and flowering, sterility (%), grain yield, straw yield and harvest index of three glutinous rice (Oryza sativa L.) cultivars namely, Pushbiruine, Kathalibiruine and Pakbiruine grown in the coastal saline soils of South West Bangladesh. The experiment was carried out in a Randomize Complete Block Design (RCBD) during aman season, 2003 at the experimental land of Khulna University, Khulna. The obtained results suggest that Kathalbiruine had better plant growth, considerable booting, heading and flowering periods, higher grain yield and harvest index than Pushbiruine and Pakbiruine. Thus Kathalbiruine may be considered as a potential candidate for cultivation in South-West Coastal Region of Bangladesh.
