Abstract:
An experiment was conducted during
Rabi (2014-2018) season to determine the sustainability index and genotypic stability of seven released linseed varieties under condition of South-Humid plane Zone of Rajasthan. The highest sustainability index (%) and high mean yield was recorded in variety PA-2 (92.35 % and 15.41 q/ha) followed by KB-3 (89.79% and 12.57 q/ha), KB-4 (88.88 % and 10.61 q/ha.) and PA-1 (82.36 % and 12.81 q/ha), whereas moderate sustainability index was observed in T-397 (74.06 %) and Meera (70.30%). Based on high yield performance and sustainability index, varieties
viz., PA-2 (Pratap Alsi-2), PA-1 (Pratap Alsi-1), KB-3 (Kota Barani Alsi-3) and KB-4 (Kota Barani Alsi-4) can be used as parent in future breeding programme.
