| Abstract | ||
| This work was carried out to evaluate some agronomic traits in eleven different genotypes. In order to achieve such a purpose 11 different genotypes were kindly obtained from Field Crops Research Institute and cultivated at two different successive seasons and some agronomic traits were evaluated. These agronomic traits are Plant height, Ear height, Days to mid silking, Grain yield/plant, Ear diameter, Kernel depth, No. of rows/ear, No.of kernels/row, Shelling% and 100-kernel weight. The obtained result showed that differential gene expression was obtained and such a result might be used in breeding program and selection. | ||
