Durum wheat breeding for high yield potential in Egypt

El-Areed S., Nachit M.M., Hagaras A., El-Sherif S., Hamouda M.

ICARDA-ARC Wheat improvement program (ICARC-WIP) is a joint project between ICARDA and Agricultural Research Center (ARC) in Egypt. The project, which commenced in 2009, aimes to breed for high yielding potential and rust resistance in durum wheat. Nineteen durum wheat genotypes were selected from advanced yield trials in addition to five checks from the growing season 2010-2011 and were planted across five environments at north, middle and south of Egypt as elite durum wheat yield trail (EDWYT) in growing season 2011-2012. Four durum wheat genotypes were selected based on multi location testing by ICARC-WIP and are candidates for inclusion in the preliminary yield trail at the national program in Egypt in the growing season 2012-2013. The pedigree of the 4 durum wheat promising lines are ICAMO-R-TA04-61/Mrb3, Quarmal/Gbch-2//Terbol97-4, Bushen-4/2*Green-18//Miki-1/3/Icasyr-1//Saadi 1989/Chan, and Mrf1/Stj2//Gdr2/Mgnl1. Data were collected on yield and yield components. The previous lines had high yielding ability compared to the grand mean (8786.51 kg/ha) and were resistant to rusts and lodging. The grain yield for these lines were 9061.585, 10422.68, 10805.61 and 9980.483 kg/ha respectively.
