Summary The slender-grained aromatic rice cultivar Sari Queen we developed from a cross between Nipponbare and Basmati 370 introduces Basmati rice grain character into japonica rice. Cross-hybridization was done at National Agricultural Research Center (NARC) in 1979. After individual selection at the F 2 generation, the line 85PR-57, selected from the F 5 generation, was named Kanto 154 at the F 9 generation in 1988. Kanto 154 was registered as Paddy Rice Norin 308 and named Sari Queen at the F12 generation in 1991 . It was also registered as Protected Variety No. 3396 in 1993. Sari Queen is an aromatic rice cultivar whose 2 - acetyl - 1 - pyrroline content in brown rice is lower than that in Kitakaori and Hieri, scented Japanese cultivars. The brown rice kernel of Sari Queen is longer and more slender than those of Nipponbare and Hoshiyutaka. The thousand- weight of brown rice is lighter than that of Nipponbare. Its visual grain quality is similar to that of Nipponbare. The amylose content is lower and protein content is higher than those of Nipponbare. The cooked rice is soft and not as sticky as Nipponbare. Cooked kernel elongation is greater than that of Nipponbare and Hoshiyutaka. Sari Queen was found suitable for curry rice and pilaf in cooking tests. Sari Queen has a long culm and is susceptible to lodging. Its heading is 8 days later than Nipponbare. The yield of Sari Queen is about 30% lower than that of Nipponbare. It is resistant to leaf blast and stripe virus, but susceptible to bacterial leaf blight. Its cold tolerance is low, as is its viviparity.
