Abstract:
The present study was carried out during rabi 2020-21 and rabi 2021-22 respectively, where
a total of 2612 and 2657 germplasm lines were evaluated for various qualitative and yield
and yield attributing traits. Among all these genotypes, the genotypes which have been found
common for both the seasons have been categorized. From the results of two seasons,
common germplasm lines found for earliness, dwarf stature, and high number of capsules -1
plant are IC0118855, IC0498442, IC0498490, IC0342800, EC41466, EC0541213,
IC0096701, IC0203213, IC0096533 and IC0525956. Also, common germplasm lines for
found for resistance to bud fly infestation and Alternaria blight are IC0096551, IC0342801,
IC620658, IC0118859, IC0498634, IC0526105, IC0498795, IC0499155, IC0498843,
IC0599415, IC0498763, EC993391, EC993389 and IC633096. These promising genotypes
are of the prime candidates for active integration into further breeding initiatives, aimed at
cultivated genotypes with desirable characteristics. Furthermore, the strategic utilization of
diverse facts found whether the germplasm lines is to play a pivotal role in processes
associated with registration, ongoing maintenance & safeguarding of linseed lineages.
