Abstract: The investigation entitled “Effect of sodicity on growth and yield, of susceptible and tolerant rice varieties under sodic soil †was conducted during the kharif season in 2015 at the experimental site of Department of Crop Physiology at Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Faizabad-224 229 (U.P.) in randomized block design with three replications and eight varieties, four tolerant (CSR36, CSR43, Narendra Usar 3, NDR 2009) and four susceptible (Swarna sub 1, IR28, IR64, IR29). Evaluate the performance of tolerant varieties and susceptible varieties in sodic soil. Observations were recorded at 60, 90 DAT and maturity. Results indicate the morphological characters such as plant height, numbers of tillers, dry biomass, relative water content and phenology was increased in tolerant varieties and decrease in susceptible varieties. Tolerant varieties showed better grain yield and yield traits as compared to susceptible varieties. CSR36 and CSR43 had a greater tolerance to sodic soil than IR64 and IR29.
