Characteristics and traits of the rice variety II You 906
II You 906 was developed by the Chengdu Second Institute of Agricultural Sciences. The full growth period is 153.0 days, 3.9 days longer than the control. 1000-grain weight is 26.6 g. Processing quality is comparable to the control, while appearance and eating quality are superior to the control. It is resistant to rice blast; in 1996 it was rated grade 4 for leaf blast and grades 1-5 for neck blast, is slightly susceptible to sheath blight, and is tolerant of fertilizer and resistant to lodging. In 1996-1997, the two-year average yield was 574.6 kg/667 sq m, a 2.76% increase over the control. In 1998, the average yield in production trials was 5
