Abstract/ Executive Summary:

The experiment were carriedout at BJRI,Dhaka and JAES, Manikganj in 2009. Fifty exotic and forty-nine indigenous germplasms were sown.Among the exotic germplasm Acc-3797 gave highest fibre yield 17.50gm/plant. Lowest fibre yield were obtained from Acc-1334 and Acc-2051 4.00gm/plant.Among the indigenous germplasm Acc-2585 gave highest fibre yield 25.50gm/plant. Lowest fibre yield were obtained from Acc-1310 3.80gm/plant in from at JAES, Manikganj .Among the exotic germplasm Acc-1336 gave highest fibre yield 18.25gm/plant. Lowest fibre yield were obtained from Acc-2051 4.30gm/plant.Among the indigenous germplasm Acc-2174 gave highest fibre yield 17.90gm/plant. Lowest fibre yield were obtained from Acc-3888 5.20gm/plant in from at BJRI,Dhaka.

Keywords: Corchorus olitorius, Germplasm, Indigenous, Exotic, Fibre yield

Location: BJRI,Dhaka and JAES, Manikganj

Start Date: 00-00-2009

End Date: 00-00-2009

Program Area: Variety and Species

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

To screen out some superior line on the basis of their morphological and agronomical characteristics

Methodology:

Bangladesh Jute Research Institute has 6060 germplasms of jute and allied fibre yielding crop of both indigenous and exotic origin.These germplasm materials have wider gene pool with different types of biotic and abiotic tolerance characters. Fifty exotic and forty-nine indigenous germplasms along with two varieties O-9897 and BJRI Tossa pat-4(O-72)were were collected and grown at BJRI,Dhaka and JAES, Manikganj in 2009.The materials were sown in three meters lengh and two lines for each germplasm maintaining RCBD method.Proper intercultural and agronomic practices were followed for raising the crop.Among the sowing materials only ninety one germplasm were germinated and forty two were identified as desirable type which are extra plant height,narrow leaves,comparatively lower leaf angle and no diseases symptom on it's body at all.The sown materials were harvested after 120 days of sowing.

Achievement/Findings:

The exotic germplasm Acc-3797 gave highest fibre yield (17.50gm/plant) and lowest fibre yield was from Acc-1334 and Acc-2051 (4.00gm/plant).The indigenous germplasm Acc-2585 gave highest fibre yield (25.50gm/plant) and lowest fibre yield was from Acc-1310 (3.80gm/plant) in from at JAES, Manikganj .The exotic germplasm Acc-1336 gave highest fibre yield (18.25gm/plant) and lowest fibre yield were from Acc-2051 (4.30gm/plant).Among the indigenous germplasm Acc-2174 gave highest fibre yield (17.90gm/plant) and lowest fibre yield were obtained from Acc-3888 (5.20gm/plant) from at BJRI,Dhaka.
