Table 1 Correlation coefficients among different traits in an F₅ (RIL) population of a cross between IR29 (salt sensitive) and Hasawi (salt tolerant) at seedling stage under three different environments

From: Mapping QTLs using a novel source of salinity tolerance from Hasawi and their interaction with environments in rice
