Yield Relationships of Barleys Grown in a Tropical Highland Environment

Holetta Agric. Res. Center, P.O. Box 2003, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

View larger version (61K): [in a new window]   Fig. 1. Decadal rainfall and minimum, maximum, and mean air temperatures for Holetta Research Center in 1998 and 1999.

View larger version (19K): [in a new window]   Fig. 2. Path coefficients for grain yield, vegetative growth, and growth durations in 26 barley genotypes tested at four N and P levels in 1998 and 1999 at Holetta, Ethiopia. YLD, grain yield; STR, straw yield; SPK, spikes per square meter; VHT, vegetative shoot height; MHT, mature plant height; HED, vegetative duration; GFD, grain-filling duration. Note: VHT, GFD STR; SPK, HED YLD were not significant.

Path coefficients for grain yield, vegetative growth, and growth durations in 26 barley genotypes tested without N application at two P levels in 1998 and 1999 at Holetta, Ethiopia. YLD, grain yield; STR, straw yield; SPK, spikes per square meter; VHT, vegetative shoot height; MHT, mature plant height; HED, vegetative duration; GFD, grain-filling duration. Note: VHT, SPK GFD; VHT, GFD STR; VHT, GFD, MHT YLD were not significant.

YLD, grain yield; STR, straw yield; SPK, spikes per square meter; VHT, vegetative shoot height; MHT, mature plant height; HED, vegetative duration; GFD, grain-filling duration. Note: SPK GFD; VHT, HED STR; SPK YLD were not significant.

Path coefficients for grain yield as affected by yield components, and for KW and KPS as affected by earlier formed traits in 26 barley genotypes tested at four N and P levels in 1998 and 1999 at Holetta, Ethiopia. YLD, grain yield; SPK, spikes per square meter; KPS, kernels per spike; KW, kernel weight; STR, straw yield; VHT, vegetative shoot height; MHT, mature plant height; HED, vegetative duration; GFD, grain-filling duration. Note: HED, GFD KPS were not significant.
