Abstract: |
Promising chickpea materials from ICRISAT and local Dbanush were evaluated at five NARC stations during 2007/08 to 2009/10 for identifying high yielding stable varieties with combined resistance to BGM and wilt diseases and pod borer. In observation nursery at Nepalgunj, ICCV97104, ICCV05112, ICCV00102, ICCC87, ICCVOO l 0 I , ICCVOO l 05, ICCVOO l 08 and ICCV04608 were found promising. In coordinated varietal trial, ICCV 87312, ICCX 840508-33, KPG 59 and ICCX 840508- 41 exhibited a wide adaptation. Mean grain yield recorded at Rampur was low (545 kg/ha) due to poor organic matter and light textured soil (crop matured in about 133 days i.e., 2-3 weeks earlier than other sites, low biomass and low numbers of pods). In Rampur, ICCV 87312, ICCX 840508-31, ICCX 840508-33 and ICCX 840508-36 (Tara) produced l 0-50% greater yield than Dbanush (650 kg/ha). In Parwanipur, ICCV 87312, ICCX 840508-41, KPG 59, BG 1206, ICCX 840508 21, ICCX 840508 32 and ICCX 840508 33 yielded 9-27% higher than local and Tara, and 15% greater yield ofICCV 87312 and ICCX 840508-41 than local at Nawalpur. In Nepalgunj, the best performing chickpeas were ICCX 840508-44, KWR 108, KPG 59, BG 1206, ICCX 840508 32 and ICCX 840508 33 (about 2600 kg/ha). In Surkhet (2009/10), ICCV 87312, ICCX 840508-41, ICCX 840508-44, ICCV 98909, KPG 59 and BG 372 produced mean grain yields of about 980 kg/ha. Highest overall mean grain yield was recorded at Nepalgunj (2400 kg/ha), followed by 1300 kg in Parwanipur and Nawalpur, and about 900 kg/ha at Surkhet. ICCX 840508-44, KWR 108, BG 1206 and KPG 59, were bold seeded (about 18 g/ 100 seed). In PRVT, Tara, ICCX 840508-33, ICCX 840508-40, ICCX840508-44 and KPG 59 (in particular Nepalgunj and Parwanipur) performed well in across the locations. |
