ABSTRACT DETERMINATION of SOME CHARACTERS SELECTED BARLEY and WHEAT GENOTYPES ANTALYA LAND CONDITIONS Ahu ÇINAR M. S. Thesis, Department of Field Crops Adviser: Prof. Dr. M. Emin TUGAY January 2003, 100 pages This research was conducted to determine certain characteristics of selected 47 bread wheat, 16 durum wheat and 46 barley genotypes at two different locations under Antalya low land conditions during November 2001 -June 2002. The experiment was arranged as Randomized Complete Block Desing with three replications at Campus and Aksu. Genotypes were seperated 4 main groups as bread wheat, durum wheat, two- row barley and six-row barley and genotype number for each was limited to 20-25. According to results obtained from experiments in first year, to bread wheat, durum wheat, two-row barley, six-row barley, the number of days from germination to head emergence was 118.7-141.3, 127.3-148.7, 137.0-153.3, 140.0-152.3 day, the number of days from germination to yellow ripe stage was 176.0-183.7, 173.3-183.3, 182.0-187.3, 184.0-186.0 day, days number of grain filling term was 39.7-60.7, 33.3- 48.7, 30.7-49.7, 32.7-46.0 day, plant height was 42.7-115.1, 62.4-128.7, 54.7-78.4, 69.8-87.7 cm, ear lenght was 6.6-14.0, 6.4-9.1, 6.9-11.7, 6.2-8.1 cm, number of spikelets per ear was 13.2-27.2, 14.2-22.5,17.7-28.9, 15.6-22.7, number of grain per ear was 32.6-88.0, 22.0-65.8, 16.9-31.0, 36.7-49.8, single ear yield was 1.07-3.41, 1.21- 2.91, 0.77-1.69, 1.56-2.41 g, 1000-karnel weight was 38.3-57.6, 44.0-59.3, 41.3-64.2, 43.1-55.6 g and harvest index was 25.4-79.3, 25.8-52.0, 41.1-57.5, 45.0-53.8 with respectively.
