Lowland and upland rice were grown under the both of lowland and upland conditions. Ecological variations in plant characteristics such as plant height, leaf emergence, length of leaf blade, leaf angle, leaf width, heading date, culm length, panicle length and straw weight were observed. Plant height, leaf emergence and heading were accelerated under the lowland condition for both lowland and upland varieties, while leaf length, leaf angle, leaf breadth, number of leaves were increased in upland condition for both lowland and upland varieties.
