Identification of adaptable sunflower ( L.) genotypes using yield performance and multiple-traits index.

Sunflower is the most important oil crop ranked as fourth edible oil in the world. The study was conducted in Northern Ethiopia during 2017-2019 cropping seasons using randomized completely block design with three replications. The objective was to decipher the genotype by environment interaction (GEI) in multi-environment trials (MET) and identify adaptable sunflower genotypes.

Multivariate analysis for yield and yield-related traits of sesame ( L.) genotypes.

Sesame production under irrigation is limited in Ethiopia because of in availability of high yielding varieties, inadequate and inefficient irrigation schemes, and insignificant awareness of producers. This study, comprising 13 sesame genotypes, was conducted around Humera and Werer during 2018 and 2019 under irrigation. The design was randomized completely block design with three replications and the objectives were to develop high yielding genotypes and identify important agronomic traits.
