Abstract: |
Climatic parameters varies from time to time and from place to place. Desirable varieties are those which can perform better on wider range of climatic conditions. This research was done to assess the yield response of widely adapted early (Arun -2) and full season (Rampur Composite) maize varieties throughout the year in relation with the pattern of daily maximum temperature. Fifty two times of planting were done at an interval of a week in 2009/10 and 20 I 0/11. In first year, both early and full season variety produced the highest yield at 391 h planting. Similarly, in second year, both varieties produced the highest yield at 12'h planting. Pattern of daily maximum temperature responsible for the highest yield of early and full season maize was analyzed. It showed that the range of maximum temperature between 30 and 35°C in most of its growth period is suitable for maize to obtain the highest yield. These patterns may be also useful in selection of newly emerging widely adaptable maize OPVs and hybrids. |
