Parental lines, Basmati and Manawthukha, had similar alkali
spreading values (ASV) and gel consistencies (GC). The mean ASV
of IL in each location ranged from 2.27, 2.22, 2.53 and 2.16 in
Kamphaeng Saen, Kyaukse, Kyauktada and Latpatan, respectively.
In all locations, the intermediate gel consistency (GC) value (40–
65 mm) did not show significant differences among the IL and
between the IL and both parents.
