Resumen

An experiment was conducted to compare the forage yield and qualify of oat (Avena sativa L.) ge-notypes (F-413, SGD-46, F-408, F-301, SGD-2011, SGD-3, SGD-37, SGD-40, SGD-5 and S-2000) atFodder Research Institute, Sargodha, Pakistan during the year 2011 to 2012. Experiment was laidout in randomized complete block design (RCBD) having three replications and a net plot of size1.6 × 5 m. The varieties were differed significantly (P ≤ 0.05) in yield, growth and quality parame-ters. The variety SGD-40 produced significantly higher green forage yield (80.00 t·ha−1 ) and drymatter yield (10.95 t·ha−1) than other varieties due to taller plants (145.73 cm), more number oftillers (7.78 m−2 ) and leaf area per plant (95.08 cm2 ). It also had the highest crude protein percen-tage (13.84%). Correlation analysis of quantitative and qualitative characters indicated thestrongly positive association of green forage yield with dry matter, crude protein and ash content.While green forage yield was negatively correlated with the number of tillers per plant, keeping inview both forage yield and crude protein contents the genotype SGD-40 grown under the conditionof Sargodha (Pakistan).
