Abstract

The consumption of rice containing minerals and phytochemicals reduces the risk of developing diseases. Understanding of diversity, genetic structure and quantity of phytochemicals in rice are necessary for developing breeding program to improve quality related traits. In this study, crosses were made between six genotypes; Sepidroud, Amol 2, Danesh, Abjibouji, Musa-Tarom and Sadri as male (line) with four genotypes; Gharib, Onda and Fajr and IR64724R as female (tester), in 2016. The progenies and their parents (34 genotypes) were evaluated in randomized complete block design with three replications in 2017 at the research farm of Sari Agricultural and Natural Resources University. Nutritional quality related traits inducling; antioxidant capacity, total phenol, carotenoids, soluble and insoluble carbohydrates, Fe, Zn and protein contents, and cooking quality related characteristics including; amylose, gelatinization temperature and gel consistency were measured. Evaluation of genetic variance components of the studied traits showed that the proportion of non-additive variance was more than additive variance. General combining ability of parents indicated that Fajr and Gharib were the best combiner for grain yield and nutritional characteristics, except soluble carbohydrates, and protein, and carotenoid and protein, respectively. Specific combining ability of crosses for increasing nutritional and cooking quality related charactetiristics and grain yield showed that Musa-Tarom × Gharib was the superior combination.
