Abstract

 This standard yield trial was aimed for a new high yielding variety in the Sesame Breeding Project fo rHigh Yielding started in 2000.   Fifteen sesame lines selected from the previous Preliminary Yield Trial in 2002 were grown with 3 recommended varieties as checks in Ubon Ratcharthani and Petchaboon Field Crops Research Centres (FCRC) and Loei Technical and Production Resources Service Centre in 2003.  Results shown are the top five 0of each trai averaged of 3 locations from combined analysis.  It was found that yield of the top five were between 103 and 121 kg/rai.  Those were Junipoke, Yuzhi No 5, 1438 China, Shirogoma Sabia and Gwa Ta Yar.  One thousand seed weight were between 3.25-3.69 g abd tgise kubes are UCR 8017, M6076, and Junipoke.  The number of capsule per plant were between 35 and 47 capsules; those are Yuzhi No 5, Shirogoma Sabia, Icapande, Gwa Ta Yar and Junipoke.  The number of days to 50% flowering were between 32 and 33 and the maturity were between 79 and 82 days.  Sesame line P-23-8-NS Israel had the earliest maturity of 79 days followed by Shirogoma Sabia and Yuzhi No 5 if 81 days; Junipoke. M 6076, 1438 china were harvested at 82 days.  The data from 3  locations  were analyzed and compared using a database programme including pictures of their canopies and seeds to help for decision making.   Seven sesame lines were then seleced by their good performance of yield and yield components in all locations for the advanced Regional Yield Trials in 2004.
