520__|aThe cultivated gene pool of rice is deficient in most of the required micronutrients. Zinc is one of the most important among these to mention about. Twenty (20) percent of the world population is at risk of Zn deficiency resulting from inadequate dietary Zn intake that causes stunted growth (Brown et al., 2009). Genetic and agronomic manipulations for biofortification to raise the concentration of the nutrients in the grain are suggested to overcome the problem. The present investigation was undertaken to study genetic diversity for grain Zn in Assam rice germplasm and also to explore the possibility of bifortification potential. A set of 29 ahu genotypes randomly collected from different places along with the high yielding sali rice variety Shraboni, known to be rich in Zn, were evaluated in 4 different micro-environments created by differential application of Zn fertilizer in ahu season of 2019. Among these, 6 were randomly selected for combining ability studies through diallel mating system without the
