Graph showing 50% pollen shedding of different maize genotypes. The maize genotypes including CHT-15, CHT-24, and CHT-26 showed the least days to 50% pollen shedding, the genotypes (CHT-12, CHT-17, CHT-20, CHT-25, CHT-32, and CHT-33) with the maximum number, while the remaining genotypes with an average number.
Graph representing days to 50% silking. The maize genotypes (CHT-6, CHT-7, CHT-13, CHT-15, CHT-24, and CHT-26) with the least number of days taken in 50% silking, genotypes (CHT-17, CHT-20, CHT-32, and CHT-33) with a maximum number of days, and all the remaining genotypes with an average day before the emergence of silks.
Graph showing mean performance of hybrids plant height. In the given graph, the bars in blue represent maize genotypes (CHT-3, CHT-17, CHT-23, and (Check-1) P30-K08 with the maximum plant height, in red, represent genotypes (CHT-2, CHT-14, CHT-28, and CHT-32 ) with a minimum plant height, and in green represent genotypes with an average plant height.
Graph showing mean performance of hybrids for ear height (cm). The bars represent maize genotypes (CHT-3, CHT-12, CHT-15, CHT-17, and (Check- I) P30-K08) with a maximum ear height, genotypes (CHT-14, CHT-27, and CHT-31) with the smallest ear height, while other genotypes with an average ear height.
Graph representing the number of ears per hectare. The maize genotypes (CHT-3, CHT-5, CHT-10, CHT-12, CHT-22, CHT-24, and CHT-29) with the highest number of ears per hectare, genotypes (CHT-13 and CHT-30) with lowest ears ha-1 and remaining with an average number of ears per hectare values.
Graph showing mean performance of grain yield per hectare in tonnes. Bars representing maize genotypes ( CHT-17, CHT-23, CHT-6, CHT-20, and CHT-18) with the highest grain yield in tonnes ha-1, Azam (Check II), CHT-28, CHT-32, and CHT-33 genotypes with the lowest grain yield, while all other genotypes with an average grain yield in tonnes per hectare.
