The experiment was conducted at the research field of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University,
Dhaka,Bangladesh during the period from July to December 2017, to study the growth,
development and yield of some local and high yielding rice varieties during aman season.
Ten rice varieties were used as treatments; among them seven were local varieties
(Kanchancni, Chinisagar, Sunashail, Ranjay, Lohadang, Haldijan, Kohabinni) and three were
high yielding varieties (HYV) (BRRI dhan46, BR11 and BRRI dhan51).The experiment was
laid out in a Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four replications. There were
significant difference among the data obtained from different growth, developmental and
yield characters. At 25 and at 50 days after transplanting the highest plant height (62.21cm
and 105.57cm respectively) was observed in Kanchancni. Highest plant height at 75 DAT
(134.15cm) and at harvest (139.03cm) was found in Lohadang. Highest number of leaves hill

at 25 days after transplanting (26.00) was found in BRRI dhan46, at 50 DAT (56.67) and at
75 DAT (60.67) was found in Kohabinni, at harvest (34.87) in Ranjay . Highest number of
tillers hill

at 25 DAT (6.67) was found in Ranjay, Haldijan, BRRI dhan46 respectively, at 50
DAT (16.33) was found highest in BRRI dhan46, at 75 DAT (11.64) was found highest in
Sunashail, at harvest (25.00) was found highest in Kanchancni. Highest number of effective
tiller (15.33) was found in BRRI dhan51, number of ineffective tiller (5.67) was found in
Kanchancni and highest (17.67) total tiller was found in BRRI dhan51. Highest crop growth
rate (54.86 g cm

) and absolute grain growth rate (1.85 mg grain

) was found in
Sunashail. Highest flag leaf area (56.20 m

) was found in Lohadang. Pancle length (30.33
cm) was found highest in Haldijan, filled grain panicle

was found highest in Haldijan, grain yield (3.62 tha

) was found highest in BRRI dhan46,
straw yield (4.17 tha

) was found highest in Chinisagar, total biological yield (6.23 tha
) was
found highest in Chinisagar, harvest index (59.73) was found highest in BRRI dhan46.
Panicles hill

and filled grains panicle

mainly contributed to the higher grain yield of the
high yielding varieties over the inbred.
