Agro-morphological Characterization of Maize (Zea mays L.) Landraces from Tribal Regions of Kashmir

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Twenty one maize landraces were collected from tribal areas of Kupwara, Budgam and Anantnag districts and were evaluated for agro morphological characteristics. A field experiment with 18 maize landraces was conducted at the station during Kharif 2021-2022 and the data was recorded for various quantitative and qualitative characters related to growth and yield performance. Most of the landraces showed distinct variation with regard to different growth parameters. A wide range in the quantitative characters exhibited by the landraces showed the diversity in the germplasm. Analysis of the variance showed that all the characters were highly significant among the landraces.
