Determination of Grain Yield Related Characteristics of Pearl Millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.) Populations

Abstract

The research was carried out to determine the traits related to grain yield of pearl millet. The research was conducted in 2021 under second crop conditions in Akçakale district of Şanlıurfa province. 22 pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.) populations were used as material. An avarage of flowering days of populations varied between 71.00 and 86.50 days, the number of fertile stems between 2.83 and 6.50 number plant-1, spike length betwen 18.50 and 28.16 cm, spike diameter between 15.62 and 26.19 mm, spike grain weight between 1.63 and 28.23 g, thousand grain weight between 5.67 and 14.10 g and seed germination rate between 92.70 and 100.00%. In addition, except the number of days to flowering, all other traits showed significant and positive relationships with grain yield per spike. The populations 1834, 5581, 8288, 8562 and 9157 in terms of grain yield of spike and can be evaluated in future breeding studies with these populations. In the selections to be made for grain yield in pearl millet, it will be important to select genotypes that are early, have a high number of fertile stems, have long spikes and thick spike diameters, and have high thousand-grain weight.

İnci Darısı (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.) Popülasyonlarının Tane Verimi ile İlişkili Özelliklerin Saptanması

Abstract

Araştırma, inci darısında tane verimi ile ilişkili özelliklerin belirlenmesi amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Araştırma, 2021 yılında Şanlıurfa ili Akçakale ilçesi ikinci ürün koşullarında yürütülmüştür. 22 adet inci darısı (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) popülasyonu materyal olarak kullanılmıştır. Populasyonların çiçeklenme gün süresinin 71.00-86.50 gün, fertil sap sayısının 2.83-6.50 adet/bitki, başak uzunluğunun 18.50-28.16 cm, başak çapının 15.62-26.19 mm, salkım tane veriminin 1.63-28.23 g, bin tane ağırlığının 5.67-14.10 g ve tohum çimlenme oranının %92.66-100.00 arasında değiştiği saptanmıştır. Ayrıca çiçeklenme gün sayısı hariç, diğer özelliklerin tamamı ile başaktaki tane verimi arasında önemli ve olumlu ilişkiler göstermişlerdir. 1834, 5581, 8288, 8562 ve 9157 popülasyonların başaktaki tane verimi bakımından diğer popülasyonlardan daha iyi olduğu ve bu genotiplerin ıslah programlarında değerlendirilebileceği sonucuna varılmıştır. İnci darısında tane verimi için yapılacak seleksiyonlarda; erkenci, fertil sap sayısı fazla, uzun başak ve kalın başak çapına sahip ve bin tane ağırlığı yüksek genotiplerin seçilmesi önemli olacaktır.
