Abstract/ Executive Summary:

Three entries including two check varieties BARI Khesari-2 and BARI Khesari-3 were evaluated at PRC, Ishurdi; RPRS, Madaripur and ARS, Shatkhira in a RCB design with 3 replications. Days to maturity ranged from 108-111, the genotype Sel-1348 matured earlier than the other genotype. Considering the mean value over the location the genotype BKX-0002-4 produced a maximum number of pods followed by BKX-0003-1. The maximum 100 seed weight was observed in BKX0003-1 followed by Sel-1348 and BKX-0002-4. The genotype Sel-1348 showed maximum mean yield followed by BKX-0003-1.

Keywords: Grasspea, Participatory varietal selection, Evaluation

Location: Ishurdi; RPRS, Madaripur and ARS, Shatkhira

Start Date: 00-00-2017

End Date: 00-00-2018

Program Area: Variety and Species

Commodity: Grasspea

Objectives:

In this selection process, the farmers would get a chance to select the best materials for cultivation in their own fields. It is the latest selection process to identify the best material with the direct involvement of the farmers for the specific area or region.

Methodology:

Three genotypes of grasspea including two check varieties BARI Khesari-2 and BARI Khesari-3 were evaluated at Pulses Research Center, Ishurdi; RPRS, Madaripur and ARS, Satkhira during Rabi, 2017-18. The experiment was laid out in a RCB design with three replications and spacing of 50 cm between rows. Each entry was sown in 8 rows of 4m long plot. The spacing between the two plots was 50 cm. Seeds were sown in the rows carefully by hands at 3 cm depth and then covered with soils. Post sowing irrigation was applied to ensure seed germination. Mulching was done and soil crusts were broken. Each of the entries was investigated from seedling to harvest and compared to check. From each plot, 10 plants were selected randomly to compute data. Yield data was recorded from the whole plot and converted into kg ha^-1. Data were analyzed statistically by using STAR 2.0.1 statistical computer program.

Achievement/Findings:

There was no remarkable variation among the entries regarding days to flower and days to maturity (Table 3.4). Sel-1348 flowered and matured earlier. The genotype Sel-1348 was the dwarf type. Considering the mean value over the location the genotype BKX-0002-4 produced the highest number of pods followed by BKX-0003-1. The maximum mean of 100 seed weight was observed in BKX0003-1 followed by Sel-1348 and BKX-0002-4. The genotype Sel-1348 showed the highest mean yield followed by BKX-0003-1. From this evaluation, it may be concluded that Sel-1348 and BKX-0003-1 are suitable for high yielding at different locations. Sel-1348 has already been released as a variety BARI Khesari-6 during June 2018.
