Plant material used were local rice accessions 22 red and black rice varieties with Aek Sibundong as check. The research results showed that local red and black rice accessions gave very significant effect on the observed variables . Accessions that has the potential to be developed are Sidrap (G7), Malang (G9), Pasaman (G13), Temanggung (G21), Purworedjo (G23), Mesuji (G25), Garut (G26), Meulaboh (G27), and Nisam (G34).
