Abstract

A field experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with three replications at the Agricultural

Research farm, R.B.S. College, Bichpuri, Agra, (Uttar Pradesh) during 2018-19. Evaluated the protection

potential of 27 genotypes namely K-1317, K-307, K-9423, DBW-39, K- 402, WH-147, DBW-17, K-1007,

K-9107, HUW-234, K-7903, LOK-1, WH-711, Raj-3765, PBW-550, PBW-343, Raj-1482, Raj-4037,

HUW-213, HD-3086, PBW-154, HD-2967, WH-1105,

PBW-502, PBW-373, PBW-226 and UP-2338 under irrigated with canal water condition. The observations

were recorded on five randomly selected plants in each replication for each genotypesand the mean data for

grain yield and its attributes. Initiation of spike, days to maturity, plant heightat maturity, number of tillers

per plant, number of spikes per plant, number of spikelets per plant, spike length , number of grains per

spike, weight of 1000-grains, grain yield per plant and grain yield per plot were subjected to an analysis of

variance the results revealed that significant differences among 27 triticum aestivum genotypes for grain

yield and its attributes among 27 triticum aestivum varieties WH-147 and K-7903 for grain yield. These

genotypes may be process the for stresses as evidence by performance in predominantly soil and water use

they should be included in direct cultivation in such environment as hybridization program to develop

recombinants position high grain yield.
