Study of some morphological traits and straw and grain yield in different variaties of common millet (Panicum miliaceum L.)
Abstract:   (4323 Views)
This experiment was conducted to study straw and grain yield and morphological traits in 10 common millet by using a RCB design with three replications in Karaj, Dezful and Gorgan in three consecutive growing seasons (2000-2003). Data were recorded on traits such as tiller no.plant-1, leaf no.plant-1, stem diametere, days to 50% flowering, panicle length, seed number per panicle, 1000- grain weight. The grain and straw yields of each variety was also determined by harvesting a 5 m2 area of two center rows in each plot, and the weights were then adjusted to 14% of moisture. Results indicated that there were significant differences for all traits among varieties at 0.01 probability level, except for, days to 50% flowering and straw yield. Mean comparisons showed that var. 2 with 9.2 leaves, var. 9 with the stem diameter of 8.54 mm, var. 1 with panicle length of 35.7 cm, var. 9 with 1111 grain per panicle, var. 9 with 1000- grain weight of 5.16 g, and var. 3 with the grain yield of 1.859 t/ha had the highest values among the other varieties. Meanwhile, the results showed that there were significant and positive correlation between straw yield and number of grain per panicle (0.695*) but there were significant and positive correlation between grain yields and tiller number per plant (0.657*), leaf number per plant(0.677*) ,days to 50% flowering(0.782*) and straw yield (0.782*).
