Abstract/ Executive Summary:

An experiment was conducted to evaluate and seed multiplication of grasspea exotic germplasm during 2018-19 at PRC, Ishurdi, Pabna.As the germplasm set was received at the last hour of season at PRC, its sowing was very late.This experiment was a non-replicated trial. Only 41 accessions flowered and produced few seeds and most of the rest of the accessions didn’t flowered, few flowered but no pod setting occurred, hence yielded nothing. Yield per plant range was recorded 5.0 to 78.0 g. Based on the morphological features in the field, yield per plant, 100 seed weight, plant height and others yield contributing characters 41 accessions were selected for further evaluation in a replicated trial in the next season.

Keywords: Pulses, Grasspea, Germplasm, Grain yield

Location: Pulses Research Centre, BARI, Ishurdi, Pubna, Bangladesh

Start Date: 00-00-2018

End Date: 00-00-2019

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Grasspea

Objectives:

To evaluate and seed multiplication of these germplasm and also find out the suitable genotypes for Bangladesh climate.

Methodology:

As the germplasm set was received at the last hour of season at PRC, its sowing was very late. The seed was sown on 25 December, 2018 at PRC, Ishurdi, Pabna in single rows of 4 m long plot with a spacing of 50 cm between rows. This experiment was a non-replicated trial. Seeds were sown carefully by hands about 3 cm depth and then covered by soils. Post sowing irrigation was given for ensuring seed germination. Mulching was done and soil crusts were broken. Grain yield was recorded from the whole plot and other yield contributing data were recorded from five randomly selected plants. Only 41 accessions flowered and produced few seeds as per following Table-1 and most of the rest of the accessions didn’t flowered, few flowered but no pod setting occurred, hence no yield.
