Evaluation of Wheat Advance Lines Under Rain Fed Conditions of Kohat and D.I. Khan (Pakistan) During 2012-13

Abstract: Nine (09) different wheat entries selected from 17^th SAWSN were tested at two different locations of the province (KPK) for yield potential, stability and disease resistance. The lines sown at BARS Kohat and ARI D.I Khan differ significantly for days to 50% flowering. Maximum days (114) to 50% flowering were noted for entry No-338 while the minimum days of 106 were noted for entry No-335. Wheat entries and locations were found significantly different for producing grain yield (kg/ha). The maximum grain yield of 3196 kg/ha was recorded for entry No-338 while entry No-7 produced the minimum grain yield of 2410 kg/ha. Locations also differed significantly at location L1 (BARS Kohat), the highest yield of 3843 kg/ha was recorded as compared to L2 (ARI D.I Khan) where 1614 kg/ha grain yield was noted.
