ASSESSMENT OF SEVEN DILL CULTIVARS GROWN IN POTS IN WOOD HOUSE

Abstract

ABSTRACT : Seven genotypes of dill (Anethum graveolens L.) were evaluated namely Erbil, cv. Gribovsky, cv. superdukat, cv. Kustovoy, cv. ambrozja, cv. Agrodowy (common cultivar grown in Poland) and cv. Common (the Local cultivar of dill in Iraq) using completely randomized Block Design in pots during winter season 2017-2018 at lath house of department of horticulture and land scape to estimate variability and seed yield and its contributing traits. Results revealed that best genotypes was Ambrozja, which achieved highest braches per plant of 133.33 branch plant-1, seed per umbellate of 72.44 seed umbellate-1 and seed yield per plant of 4.42 g plant-1. The estimated PCV, GCV were highest for seed per umbellate of 69.708 and 69.88, and for umbel per plant of 63.708 and 61.204, respectively. For broad sense heritability, was biggest for seed per umbellate of 99.5%, and for umbel per plant of 99.6%.
