- The study evaluated outcrossing rates in rice under field conditions. Agro-morphological markers were used to evaluate levels of outcrossing. A total of 721 134 plants were investigated. There was an average outcrossing rate of 0.7 ± 0.51%, with a potential outcrossing rate of 2.45 ± 0.86%. Implications for production of quality rice seed and conservation of germplasm were discussed
