Bazı Hibrit Mısır (Zea mays L.) Çeşitlerinin Muş Ekolojik Şartlarında Performanslarının Belirlenmesi

This study was conducted to determine appropriate maize varieties for grain production in Muş ecological conditions. The research was conducted during main crop growth season of 2015. The experimental design was a randomized complete block with three replication and fifteen corn genotypes were used in the experiment. Results revealed that, considerable differences were found among varieties in grain yield. The highest grain yield was obtained in Dekalp6724 variety with 1193.95 kg da -1 while the variety with the lowest grain yield was Adasa-16 with 800.70 kg da -1 . As a result of the study, Dekalp-6101 and Ada-8924 stood out in terms of low grain moisture content, while Dekalp 6724, Kalends and As-71 were identified as the most promising varieties in terms of grain yield.
