Description The reaction of the grain for the treatment with the solution of caustic potash
(KOH) was determined by Warth and Darabsett. Jones distinguished three types of
reaction in rice varieties: clear, opaque, and intermediate degeneration. Oka
used this character for discriminating the ecological groups. Kudo treated the
grains with a dilute solution (1.7%) for 24 hr and recognized that japonica
strains indicate the strongest reaction.
