Abstract:

This study is carried out in Konya Bahri Dağdaş International Agricultural Research Institute, in winter, for two years (2017-2018 and 2018-2019 growing seasons) with the aim of determining some agronomic characteristics of 9 grasspea genotypes and varieties. In the study, breeding-lines M-22, 43-6 2, 43-10 4, Ş-8 3, 52-17 5, P-17 1 obtained from ICARDA and 3 grasspea varieties (İptaş, Eren, Karadağ) were used. The study was carried out in Random Blocks Trial Design with three replications. According to the results of the study; 50% flowering time of grasspea varieties 206-213 days (P-17.1-Karadağ), stem height 42.3-52.5 cm (Ş-8.3-İptaş), main stem thickness 1.49-1.81 mm (Ş-8.3-Karadağ), plant height 39-50 cm (Ş-8.3-İptaş), green grass yield 1869-3130- kg/da (52-17.5-43-6.2), hay yield 424-644 kg/da (52-17.5-43-6.2) and the grain yield was between 153-279 kg/da (P-17.1-M-22). In the study, significant differences were determined between grasspea varieties and genotypes in terms of characteristics. According to the average data of two years, in Konya and similar semi-arid areas, genotype 43-6.2 in terms of forage yield and genotype numbered M-22 in terms of grain yield came to the fore as promising genotypes.
