Abstract
KUULLEE (EH08027-2) field pea variety is an improved variety selected from eleven pipelines including standard check LAMMIIF during the trial was undertaken at three test locations (Gedo, Shambu, and Arjo) in randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. The study was conducted with the objectives of releasing a variety that is high yield, disease resistant, and stable than the other competent genotypes from 2016-2020 for five consecutive years. The accessions originated first from the Field Pea Center of Excellence (Holetta Agricultural Research Center). The new variety, KUULLEE (2795.23 kg ha-1) was 10.15% yield advantages over the standard check LAMMIIF (2537.5 kg ha-1). KUULLEE variety is mainly used for the “SHIRO type”. The GGE revealed that EH08027-2 or KUULLEE variety is high-yielding, stable, and moderately resistant to Blotch, Downy Mildews, and Powdery Mildews field pea disease. Therefore, the KUULLEE variety was officially released in 2021 for Western Oromia and similar agro-ecologies.
