dc.description.abstract |
Fifteen genotypes of sesame were evaluated in replicated trials
at two locations viz., upland during rabi at Veliayani and rice fallow during
summer at Kayamkulam. Data collected on 13 characters were subjected to statistical
scrutiny. Significant differences were observed for most of the characters at
each location and also between locations. Length of pod and 1000 seed weight
were not found to be influenced by seasons. The multiloculed varieties gave
higher yield than the four loculed ones at both the locations. The variety No.
42-1 giving maximum seed yield per hectare at both the locations had larger number
of pods (especially in upland), longer pods, larger number of seeds per
pod and higher seed weight. Medium in duration and with the highest oil content
and possessing multiloculed capsules, this variety holds promise for being enhanced
as an improved strain for general cultivation, pending further trials on its stability
in performance. |
