Abstract
Out of Sixty germplasms screened against false smut of rice, twenty nine viz., IET-16295, IET-16298, IET-16303, IET-15836, IET-15862, IET-14807, IET-15295, IET-15296, IET-15298, IET-15299, IET-15314, IET-15337, IET-15399, IET-10664, IET-15358, IET-15266, IET-15267, IET-16444, IET-16403, IET-16439,IET-16434, IET-16435, IET-16437, IET-15163, IET-15924, IET-15928, IET-15941, IET-15948 and IET-15949 were found free from false smut. Viability test of propagules revealed that the germination percentage of propagules decreased with the increase in depth of soil and length of storage. Also the propagules were more viable under laboratory condition than field condition where temperature was not controlled.
