Abstract:

 

In this study, it was aimed to determine grain yield and quality parameters of some popcorn genotypes. Study was carried out in Şanlıurfa conditions during the second crop growing season of 2017. The experiment was designed complete randomized blocks design with three replicates. In the research 13 popcorn genotypes were used as a crop material. In the study, ear diameter ranged from 29.99 to 37.62 mm, ear length from 17.68 to 22.95 cm, kernel number of ears from 425.0 to 598.0 number ear-1 and kernel weight of ear from 56.2 to 120.9 g. And also, another characteristic such as thousand kernel weight values were between 149.06 and 241.81 g, hectoliter weight between 83.93 and 89.00 kg hL-1. While the lowest grain yield was obtained from 123AYN04 genotype as 342.37 kg da-1, the highest grain yield was obtained from 411KTR05 genotype with 967.91 kg da-1. Popping volume values were between 18.06 and 26.5 cm3 g-1, unpopped kernel ratio 0.04% and 3.01%, protein content 9.3% and 11.40%. When the grain yield, popping volume, unpopped kernel number and protein content evaluated together it was determined that 411KTR05, 5YTR1305, ELACİN, AYCİN R-997 and KUM1347 popcorn genotypes was found better than others.
