Abstract/ Executive Summary:

All the mutant lines/varieties had shown reasonable higher yield in Nov.10 sowing. The mutant line N1M-149 produced highest seed yield (1026.1Kg/ha) in Nov.10 sowing followed by BARImasur-4 (931Kg/ha) at Ishurdi. The mutant line N2M-214 produced the highest seed yield (1012.6 Kg/ha) in Nov.10 sowing followed by BARImasur-4 (918.53 Kg/ha) at Magura. The higher yield of these mutant lines/variety associated with higher number of pods/ plant.

Keywords: Yield, Dates of sowing, Lentil.

Location: BINA sub-stations at Ishurdi and Magura

Start Date: 10-11-2006

End Date: 30-06-2007

Program Area: Crop-Soil-Water Management

Commodity: Lentil

Objectives:

The objective was to evaluate the yield performances of some selected advanced lentil mutants as affected by different dates of sowing.

Methodology:

Three lentil mutants, N1M-134, N1M-149 and N2M-214 along with check variety BARImasur-4 were grown under two dates of sowing (Nov. 10 and Nov. 20). The experiment was laid out in Split plot designs with three replications. Dates of sowing were placed in the main plots and the mutant lines in the sub plot. At maturity, plant population and seed yield were recorded from 3 random harvest of one linear meter plot. Data on yield attributes were recorded from randomly selected 10 plants from each plot. The data were analyzed as per design used and means were compared by LSD.

Achievement/Findings:

The optimum sowing time for both lentil mutants of N1M 149 and N2M 214 was obtained as Nov.10. The mutants N1M 149 gave better yield at Ishurdi and N2M 214 at Magura.
