ABSTRACT
A field experiment was conducted at crop research farm, Department of Agronomy, Allahabad School of Agriculture, Sam Higginbottom Institute of Agricultural, Technology & Sciences, Allahabad (U. P). It is on the near of the river Yamuna to study the varietal/Accession evaluation of Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) under low fertility & two irrigations during (Rabi) season 2012. It was consisting of combination of nine varieties of Wheat. The field experiment was laid out in randomized block design with three replications. The results showed that number of plants per meter row length, plant height, number of tillers of per plant, number of grains per spike, grain and straw yield was recorded non significantly, whereas dry matter accumulation recorded significantly under treatment T1 (AAG-W-9) but it was at par with treatment T4 (AAG-W-9). Results further recorded that length of spike (11.04 cm) recorded significantly in treatment T4, where as test weight (41.23 g) recorded significantly higher in T3 (AAG-W-9) , which was statistically at par with T1 (PBW-343). The maximum grain yield (2.76 t/ha) and straw yield (6.40 t/ha) recorded in treatment T4 (AAG-W-6).
