It is the major source of calories and to some extent of protein and minerals. Many workers have reported rice to be the poor source of protein but its nutritional quality has been found to be markedly superior to that of wheat and other cereals. It has been established that chemical composition of a rice grain is influenced by various factors, such as genetics, location, season, etc. Of these genetics play an important role in determining the chemical or physical characteristics of a plant and its products.}, number={2}, journal={The Indian Journal of Nutrition and Dietetics}, author={Dutta, L. and Barua, J.
