General performance of germplasm accessions in Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L.) under protected and unprotected conditions at Bijapur, Karnataka.

摘要

Forty-six germplasm lines were evaluated for seed yield and its components, separately under protected (chemical control against pest and disease) and unprotected conditions followed by RBD design with two replications, each powdery mildew reaction and aphid resistance during rabi season of 2007-08 at RARS, Bijapur. Among the eight top performing germplasm lines viz., GPM 31, 64 and 23 were common in both the conditions. The mustard lines viz., Pusa Agaram, Pusa, Mahak, GPM 46, EJ-15, JM-1, GPM 108 and GPM 25, GPM 106, GPM 65, GPM 83, GPM 58 and GPM 53 exhibited resistance to aphid and powdery mildew, respectively.
