The document discusses rice varieties developed for cropping systems in coastal Bangladesh that are tolerant to various abiotic stresses including salinity, submergence, and flash flooding. It provides a table listing rice varieties suitable for coastal areas and their traits. It also summarizes research conducted to develop new rice varieties such as BRRI dhan47 through marker-assisted backcrossing that can tolerate higher salinity levels and stabilize productivity in coastal regions.

Tolerant variety and proper crop management example.
The types of salinity-tolerant breeding lines required by NARES are diverse because of various traits that determine adaptability and acceptability. Thus varieties should have a wide range of stress tolerance, growth duration within the range of 90 to 150 days and have photoperiodic sensitivity from insensitive to highly sensitive. The development of this range of material requires diverse breeding populations and likely necessitates pyramiding traits for tolerance of different stresses. For example in considering maturity, saline stressed area requires all types of maturity. In saline-acid areas do not need early types, and saline-alkaline areas need only earlier types.
IRRI’s salinity tolerance breeding program developed more than 1000 salinity tolerant elite lines with multiple tolerances to different abiotic stresses starting with salinity. These elite lines have different sources of tolerance and genetic background. They were selected following the breeding scheme above. Majority of the elite entries were vigorous. Plant vigor is one of the important trait of salinity tolerant rice especially at seedling stage. Almost all elite lines have high tiller numbers. This high tillering ability is another desirable trait of saline tolerant rice. There exist a considerable variation in plant height. Those lines with intermediate and tall plant heights are needed because some saline areas have stagnant water (30-50cm) and these taller salinity tolerant elite lines can adapt easily and tolerate higher water level. The growth duration of the elite lines showed a good distribution for early, medium, and late maturity, thus breeders and farmers have a range to choose from depending on the requirements in their area and season. Only recently early maturing salt tolerant lines were developed which is the most in demand type by farmers in saline areas to catch up with the early planting for the nest season crop either rice or other crops after rice. Some of these materials are being field tested for possible release as new variety through participatory varietal selection or the conventional national seed board testing in saline-prone areas.
Recent efforts using modern breeding tools have introgressed quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with salinity and submergence tolerance into mega varieties, which are now ready for evaluation

Furthermore, breeding lines combining tolerance of salinity and submergence were recently developed using marker-aided selection, providing varieties that can survive both saline and submerged conditions. These new generations of rice varieties will help in developing new more productive and less risky cropping systems for coastal zones.
Enhancing rice-based cropping systems in coastal areas requires new types of rice varieties with multiple abiotic stress tolerance and a multitude of other desirable traits like short duration, optimum height and grain qualities specific for a particular region. Development, distribution, and evaluation of these new rice lines with farmers and for multiple seasons based on available resources are vital in designing enhanced cropping patterns with the potential to at least double annual productivity and reduce farmers risks in the fragile coastal zones of the Ganges and other basins facing similar challenges.
