Abstract: Field Experiment was conducted to evaluate 22 rice hybrids for quality traits in Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding, SHUATS, Prayagaraj during Kharif 2018 in Randomized Block Design with three replications, received from AICRP Indian Institute of Rice Research (IIRR), Hyderabad. The data were recorded for 10 quality traits. The highest Hulling per cent was observed in the hybrid IHRT-E-3106 (74.23%), highest Head rice recovery (%) was observed in the hybrid IHRT-E-3106 (66.17). The present investigation revealed that the five hybrids viz., IHRT-E-3102, IHRT-E-3116, IHRT-E-3114, IHRT-E-3108, and IHRT-E-3115 showed best cooking quality. Highest L/B ratio was observed in the hybrid IHRT-E-3114 (3.98), highest elongation ratio was observed in the hybrid IHRT-E-3106, highest Gel consistency (mm) was observed in the hybrid IHRT-E-3115(57.7 mm), Alkali spreading value 4 to 7 is preferred for quality rice hybrid IHRT-E-3101 (3.67).
