Determination of Yield, Yield Component and Some Quality Traits in Some Two-Rowed and Six-Rowed Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Genotypes in Samsun Ecological Condition

38619

This research was conducted to determine 12 barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) genotypes on yield, yield component and some quality traits, between 2008-2010 in Black Sea Agricultural Research Institute’s experimental areas. As the barley material, six-rowed Erginel–90, Epona, Akhisar-98, Vamıkhoca-98 and two-rowed Bolayır, Larende, Zeynelağa, Aydanhanım and Afg-A1, Afg-A2, Afg-A3 and Afg-A4 varietys were used. There were significant differences found in tested characters among barley cultivars. According to two-year average traits were ranged as follow; plant height was as 68.0 as 115.8 cm; spike lenght as 5.3-8.4 cm; grain number per spike as 24.9-59.3; the weight of grains per spike as 0.64-1.97 g; spike number per m² as 210.59-516.73; grain yield as 188.84-620.28 kg/da; the quality characteristics 1000-grain weight as 30.5-47.5 g; hectoliter weight as 58.8-71.4 kg and crude protein content as 10.9-12.7 %. According to the two years periodical research results; the highest results of grain yield and 1000-grain weight were obtained form Epona (620.28 kg/da) and Bolayır (515.16 kg/da) varieties, and Akhisar–98 (47.5 g), Larende (46.3 g) and Vamıkhoca–98 (44.8 g) varieties, respectively. In addition, the highest results for hectoliter weight were found Bolayır (71.4 kg), Zeynelağa and Aydanhanım (69.1 kg) varieties respectively. Moreover, Vamıkhoca–98 and Akhisar–98 showed the highest crude protein content (12.7, 12.5 %).
