Due to lack of suitable selection criteria, the development of highly salt tolerant high yielding varieties in rice remain as an incomplete episode & in this cross road the molecular markers finds appropriate place to be used upon. These are more potential; having better resolution and not gets affected by the changing environment. In the present study efforts were made to tag salt tolerant gene(s) in a F3 mapping of Pokkali X IR 28 with concurrent phenotyping in response to excess salt under artificial condition. The result shows ample polymorphism in respect of 10 decamer primers, which is...
