15 Apr DWRB123: A new two row malt barley for irrigated timely sown conditions of NWPZ
डीडब्लूआरबी 123: NWPZ के सिंचिंत क्षेत्रों मे समय पर बुआई के लिए दो पंक्ति माल्ट जौ की नई किस्म DWRB123 (DWRUB54/DWR51) is a two-row malt barley variety, which was released for irrigated timely sown conditions of North Western Plains Zone (NWPZ). The variety was identified for during 55th All India Coordinated Wheat and Barley Workers’ meet held at CCSHAU, Hisar during 21-24 Aug. 2016. DWRB123 was subsequently released and notified by the “Central Sub-Committee on Crop Standards, Notification and Release of Varieties for Agricultural Crops (CVRC)” vide Gazette Notification S.O. No. 1007 (E) dated on 30th March, 2017 for irrigated timely sown conditions of North Western Plains Zone (NWPZ). DWRB123 was tested at multi-locations (26)over three years with two-row malt barley checks viz. DWRUB52, DWRB92, DWRB101, RD2849 and six row feed barley check BH902 under barley coordinated yield trials. DWRB123 depicted average grain yield as 4870kg/ha (mean of 26 trials over 3 years), whereas the elite malt barley checks DWRUB52 and DWRB92 depicted grain yield 4530 and 4510kg/ha, respectively. DWRB123 exhibited yield superiority for grain yield over two-row malt barley checks DWRUB52 (7.5%), DWRB92 (8.0%), RD2849 (4.6%), DWRB101 (0.8%) and six-row check BH902 (8.3%), respectively. DWRB123 exhibited the highest frequency (17/26) in first non-significant group. In agronomical trials, at recommended N dose, DWRB123 exhibited the grain...
