Assessment of genetic parameters of oat varieties (Avena sativa L.) for fodder and grain yield
Author(s): Naveen Singh Rawat, JS Verma, Renu Rana and Ashutosh Barthwal
Abstract: Twenty one released varieties of oat (Avena sativa L.) were evaluated during Rabi 2010-11 and Rabi 2011-12 for 16 morpho-physiological characteristics to assess the genetic variance, heritability and genetic advance for each character in the material. As per pooled over years analysis results revealed maximum genotypic coefficient of variation for grain yield per plant, harvest index, leaf: stem ratio, dry matter yield, green fodder yield and straw yield per plant. While high heritability and moderate to high genetic advance was observed for plant height, leaf length, leaf: stem ratio, number of spikelet, dry matter yield, green fodder yield, straw yield per plant, grain yield per plant and harvest index indicating the preponderance of additive genetic effects for these traits.
