Abstract:Genetic diversity was assessed in 42 genetic stocks of Triticum durum on the basis of 10 quantitative characters. High magnitude of variation was reflected by a wide range values for all the characters. Six characters i.e., days to heading, plant height, productive tillers per plant, 1000 grain weight, protein content and sedimentation value showed high heritability value which means that these characters are likely to respond to direct selection. Low correlation between 1000 grain weight and yield indicated t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
