Abstract
A field experiment was conducted in randomized block design in 3 replications at agriculture research farm, Jagan
Nath University, Bahadurgarh, Haryana, to evaluate the production potential of 7 triticale genotypes namely TL2942,
TL2969, TL3004, TL3001, TL3003, TL3002 and TL3005 under irrigation with saline water. The soil is clay loam with
EC 118 μS/cm and water from nearby bidhro canal having pH 7.6 to 8.4 depending upon rainfall. The observations
were recorded on five randomly selected plants in each replication for each genotype and the mean data for grain yield
and its attributes: plant height, number of tillers per plant, number of ears per plant, number of spikelet’s per spike, dry
weight of 100 grains, grain yield per plant and test weight were subjected to analysis of variance. The results revealed
significant differences among 7 triticale genotypes for grain yield and its attributes. Among seven triticale varieties
TL3002 was found superior for grain yield (7.5g/plant), number of spikelets per spike (16.88) whereas TL3001 scored
highest number of tillers per plant (6.2), number of ears per plant (6.21), test weight (15.79) and TL2969 scored highest
plant height (88.2 cm) and number of spikelets per spike (16.88). These genotypes may possess genes for salinity
tolerance as evidenced by their performance in predominantly saline soil and water used. They should be included in
direct cultivation in such environment as well as hybridization programme to develop recombinants possessing high
grain yield and tolerance to salinity.
