Adulteration in Basmati rice is a rife phenomenon either due to unavoidable postharvest procedures or intentionally by exporters to gain more profit. SSR marker based multiplex and singleplex assay is being used for detection and quantification of adulteration in Basmati rice using bulked-seed. Identification of different varieties present in the complex Basmati sample which is a mix of more than two varieties is not feasible from analysis on the bulked-seed. Therefore, we have undertaken genotyping using multiplex-PCR of SSR markers on 20 randomly selected single grains from complex samples and the results revealed accurate adulteration levels and presence of different types of admixtures in complex Basmati samples. More importantly this method helped in identifying hybrid (double) profiles for markers indicating outcrossing in Basmati rice.

Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) is the most important cultivated species in the AA genome species of the genus Oryza. basmati is a special and famous subgroup in Asian cultivated rice, and temperate japonica is one of the most important cultivated subgroup, too.

India, the world's leading rice exporter, banned the export of non-Basmati white rice, accounting for 25% of its total exports (or 10% of the global rice trade). The ban aims to ensure availability to domestic Indian consumers and reduce domestic market prices, impacting global rice market accessibility, consumers, and producers across twelve regions. The study utilized the global simulation model (GSIM) to analyze the effects of trade restrictions on industries.

Background: Sustainable crop production along with best nutrient use efficiency is the key indicator of smart agriculture. Foliar application of plant nutrients can complement soil fertilization with improved nutrient uptake, translocation and utilization. Recent developments in slow releasing, nano-fertilizers in agriculture, begins a new era for sustainable use and management of natural resources.

The nutritional quality improvement is among the most integral objective for any rice molecular breeding programs. The seed storage proteins (SSPs) have greater role to determine the nutritional quality of any cereal grains. Rice contains relatively balanced amino acid composition and the SSPs are fractioned into albumins (ALB), globulins (GLO), prolamins (PRO) and glutelins (GLU) according to differences in solubility.
