| Abstract |
Abestract
Development of early maturing lentil varieties is an important aim in lentil breeding program at ARC, Egypt . The present study aimed to estimate variability , heritability , and genetic advance from selection for earliness and seed yield characters for 24 lentil genotypes to provide information that could be useful in lentil breeding program . the experiments were carried out at sids research station in 1997/98 and 1998/99 , and at GIZA research station in 1998/99 season . the environments ( season and location ) showed major effect on the performance of genotypes . High phenotypic variation was observed for number of pods and seeds/plant
Considering wide variability , heritability and genetic advance , progress could be expected from selection for number of seeds / plant and seed yield / plant . the early maturing genotypes Sina 1 , FLIP 87-21L and FILP 92-54L could be recommended for planting in case the earliness in maturity is more important than seed yield . on the other hand , the high yielding genotypes FILP 89-71L , FILP 95-68 L, 89503 , FILP 92-48L and FILP 95-48 L could be recommended for planting in case the high yield potential is more important than earliness in maturity..
