Abstract
Seven f3 lines and two parents of (Tricum eastivum L.) were tested at the Botanical Garden of Sind University of Agriculture Tandojam in the year 1993-94. Highly significant differences were observed for all the observed characters. Plant height ranged from 72.57 to 102.17 for line-8 and line-6, respectively. Number of fertile tillers of parent-16.42 and line-7 was 10.03. Spike length per strike 10.74 to 12.54 for line-8 and line-3 respectively while Spike lets per spike parent1 was height 19.85 by parent-1 and Line-5 17.59. Number of grain per spike 42.23 to 53.78 by line-7 and line-4 respectively. Saeed index (gm) line-6, 35.57 was heights while, line-4, 19.49 was the lowest. Grain yield line-7 attained the height yield of 12.17 gram per plant while for line-8 showed the lowest yield of 8.47 gram per plant. This variation in yield and other characters predict the positive response of the segregating population and its ultimate utilization in the future breeding programme for variety development.
