Abstract
A study conducted on five rice varieties indicated that productivity can be enhanced from 17 to 29 % by increasing the number of high density (HD) grains/panicle. HD grains/panicle were partitioned into different components. The number of secondary branches/panicle and the number of HD grains on secondary branches were identified as the most important contributing factors for the number of HD grains/panicle. Selection of plants with panicles having these characters would increase the proportion of HD grains/panicle and productivity.
