The present investigation was carried out to know the response and characterization of rice genotypes by physical, chemical and molecular methods. Seeds of 17 rice genotypes were analysed for seed dimension using Biovis seed image analyzer. The mean performance for seed length varied from 9.28 mm in genotype RYC-230 to 11.50 mm in genotypeMT-4420 and seed width varied from 2.64 mm in genotype IET-18299 to 4.85 mm in genotype MT-4420. The mean seed length/seed width ratio ranged from 2-37 to 3-53 among the genotypes. Rice genotypes also well responded to chemical tests such as phenol test, FeSO4 test, NaOH test and KOH test and helpful in grouping of the rice genotypes. Of the 22 single sequence repeats (SSR) markers used in the study, all markers were able to distinguish rice genotypes and may be utilized to develop new varieties during crop improvement programme.
