Abstract EN
The present research study evaluate and identify the most suitable and high yielding genotypes of Lens culinaris for the salt marsh habitat of Swat in moist temperate sort of agro climatic environment of Pakistan.
A total of fourteen genotypes were cultivated and analyzed through Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD).
These genotypes were AZRC-4, NL-2, NL4, NL-5, NL-6, NARC-11-1, NARC-11-2, NARC-11-3, NARC-11-4, 09503, 09505, 09506, P.Masoor-09 and Markaz-09.
Different parameters i.e., germination rate, flowering, physiological maturity, plant height, biological grain yield, seed weight, pods formation and its height, pods per plants and protein content were focused specially throughout the study.
Preliminary the Lentil genotypes have significant variability in all the major morpho-agronomic traits.
The days to germination, 50% flowering and 100 seed weight ranged from 7 to 9, 110 to 116 days, and from 5.4 to 7.3 gm respectively.
Biological yield and grain yield ranged from 5333 to 9777 kg ha1 and 1933 to 3655 kg ha1 respectively.
Whereas, protein contents ranged from 23.21% to 28.45%.
It was concluded that the genotype AZRC-4 is better varity in terms of grain yield plus in 100 seed weight and moreover, 09506 genotype was significant under salt marsh habitat in early maturing for the Swat Valley, Pakistan.
