Abstract

Ten genotypes of Rajmash bean were studied to assess their performance in randomized block design with three replications over four environments in field during kharif 2015 at College of Agriculture, Pune, Maharashtra. The crop was grown under four different sowing dates (environments) viz E1: 20 June 2015, E2: 10 July 2015, E3: 30 July 2015 and E4: 20 August 2015. It was done to identify adaptable genotypes suitable for kharif season. The results revealed that the genotype Phule Suyash and GRB-803 consistently recorded early flowering. The genotype Varun and Phule Suyash recorded early maturity in each environment. The genotype GRB-902 recorded maximum plant height (55.68 cm) and plant spread (15.50 cm), maximum number of primary branches (2.85) and highest seed yield per plant (19.60 g). The genotype GRB-702 recorded 19.38 g seed yield per plant. Among the ten genotypes evaluated in different environmental conditions genotypes, GRB-902 and GRB-702 were found promising and performed better in all environments than the other genotypes.
