Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A field experiment was conducted at RARS, Rahmatpur, Barishal during Rabi season of 2018-19 to evaluate the local and exotic germplasm of grasspea genotypes/lines. Eight selected grasspea local and exotic lines viz. IGYT-125, IGYT-120, IGYT-124, IGYT-122, IGYT-110, IGYT-115, IGYT-123, IGYT-216 and one check variety BARI Kheshari-3 were evaluated in the trial. Results showed that all the characters under this study were significantly different among the genotypes except final plant stand and plant height. The line IGYT-216 was found early maturing (101.33 days) among the grasspea lines.The highest grain yield (1255 Kg/ha) was produced by the entry BARI Kheshari 3 followed by IGYT-216 (1166.67 kg/ha) and the lowest grain yield (386.67 kg/ha) was obtained in IGYT-110.

Keywords: Pulses, Grasspea, Lentil, Grain yield

Location: Regional Agricultural Research Station (RARS), Rahmatpur, Barishal, Bangladesh

Start Date: 00-00-2018

End Date: 00-00-2019

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Grasspea

Objectives:

To evaluate some local and exotic germplasm from ICARDA to make a suggestion to include progressive lines to varietal improvement.

Methodology:

The experiment was conducted at the experimental field of Regional Agricultural Research Station (RARS), Rahmatpur, Barishal in the rabi season, 2018-19 to evaluate the performance of grasspea local and exotic genotypes/lines for searching of high yielding and disease resistant variety. Eight selected grasspea lines viz.IGYT-125, IGYT-120, IGYT-124, IGYT-122, IGYT-110, IGYT-115, IGYT-123, IGYT-216 and one check variety BARI Kheshari-3 were evaluated. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. The unit plot was 2 rows and 1m long with spacing 50cm×5cm. Seeds were sown in the rows on 18 November 2018. Two weeding were done at 25 days and 45 days after sowing. Data on yield contributing characters were recorded from 10 randomly selected plants from each plot. Grain yield (kg/ha) was recorded from the whole plot. Data were analyzed statistically by using R software at 5% level of significance.

Achievement/Findings:

With findings of the present study it could be concluded that, the genotype IGYT-216 had produced the highest seed yield (1166.67 kg/ha) which was statistically identical with check variety BARI Kheshari 3 (1255 Kg/ha). So, the genotype IGYT-216 can be considered for further investigation.
