Abstract
Seven Durum wheat varieties were evaluated at Faddis Agricultural Research Center (FARC) at Boko research station during 2013/14 cropping season. The results revealed that the tested Durum wheat varieties differed significantly for grain yield, plant height, spike length and seed per spike. Among the varieties Mangudo, Ude, Dembi and Asassa produced higher grain yield (3387.5, 3345.8, 3112.5 and 3101.4kg ha-1, respectively). Durum wheat varieties Yerer recorded maximum spike length (6.5cm) variety Mangudo recorded minimum spike length (4.5cm) whereas variety Mangudo recorded maximum seed per spike followed by Ude (58 and 54 respectively). Among the tested varieties Mangudo, Ude and Dembi recorded higher grain yields and maximum seed per spike and were good performing varieties in the study area.
