Abstract

This study was conducted at rainfall conditions in Southeastern Anatolia of Turkey, Diyarbakır, during 2011-2012 growing season. This work reviewed the three different lentil nurseries obtained from ICARDA; 1.Lentil International Elite Nursery-Drought Tolerance-2012, 2.Nursery-Early-2012 and 3.Nursery-Red-2012. The experiment was designed a simple lattice (7x7) and (6x6). Total one thousand twenty-two genotypes were evaluated for cold, drought tolerance and other agronomical and botanic traits. Wide variation observed for all traits among genotypes. Hopeful genotypes for earlier, more pods, average yield, drought and cold resistance were selected in first trial. The most genotypes affected by cold in all trials, also, some genotypes in plots killed by low temperature. Total thirteen genotypes (ILL10827, ILL10831, ILL10833, ILL10906, ILL10913, ILL10917, ILL10960, ILL10966, ILL10969, ILL10971, ILL6002 and ILL7979) were selected for drought trials in the region.

Abstract

Abstract: This study was conducted at rainfall conditions in Southeastern Anatolia of Tur-key, Diyarbakır, during 2011-2012 growing season. This work reviewed the three different lentil nurseries obtained from ICARDA; 1.Lentil International Elite Nursery-Drought Tol-erance-2012, 2.Nursery-Early-2012 and 3.Nursery-Red-2012. The experiment was designed a simple lattice (7x7) and (6x6). Total one thousand twenty-two genotypes were evaluated for cold, drought tolerance and other agronomical and botanic traits. Wide variation ob-served for all traits among genotypes. Hopeful genotypes for earlier, more pods, average yield, drought and cold resistance were selected in first trial. The most genotypes affected by cold in all trials, also, some genotypes in plots killed by low temperature. Total thirteen genotypes (ILL10827, ILL10831, ILL10833, ILL10906, ILL10913, ILL10917, ILL10960, ILL10966, ILL10969, ILL10971, ILL6002 and ILL7979) were selected for drought trials in the region.

Key words: Red lentil, (Lens culinaris Medik), drought, cold
