potential of 7.1 t/ha under timely sown irrigated conditions and
showed superiority over checks. It is resistant to yellow rust and
brown rust. It has shown superior quality parameters with protein
content (12.5%), a sedimentation value (45 ml), best Glu-1 Score (10/10)
and good extraction rate (70.5%) meeting all the criteria for superior
bread making qualities. This variety has promise for timely sown
