Effect of Sowing Dates on Growth and Grain Yield of Maize Inbred Lines

Abstract: This study was carried out at National Maize Research Program, Rampur, Chitwan, Nepal to evaluate the effect of sowing dates on growth and grain yield of maize inbred lines. Seven maize inbred lines namely NML-2, RML-17, RML-32, RML-4, RML-86, RML-95 and RML-96 were planted on three different dates i.e. September 02, September 12, September 22, 2015 during winter using randomized complete block design with two replications. The results of this study showed that the growth and yield traits were significantly af… Show more

“…The reason for such variation under different locations is due to existence of variation in genetic makeup. The existence of significant genetic variation among maize genotypes for yield and major yield attributing traits was reported (Koirala et al, 2014b;Bhusal et al, 2016;Adhikari et al, 2018;Sharma et al, 2019). Genetic improvement can contribule at least 50-60% yield gains in maize (Duvic, 1992;Vasal and Carlos, 1994).…”
