Abstract
The new early lentil (Lens cu/inaris Medikus) cultivar Sinai 1, which is a selection from
the Argentinean variety Precoz. has developed by lentil breeding program, Food Legume
Research Program, ARC, Egypt. Its yield performance and stability was evaluated in 155
various types of yield trials in Egypt during the period from 1995/96 to 2000/2001
seasons in old and new reclaimed lands, and from 1991/92 to 1997/98 seasons in rainfed
areas. The seed yield of Sinai 1 exceeded the yield of the wide spread local cultivar Giza
9 by 12.3%, 10.6%, and 70.5% in old lands at North Egypt (Delta region), in new
reclaimed lands and in rainfed areas, respectively, while it gave lower seed yield than
Giza 9 in old lands at South Egypt. Sinai 1 matured earlier than Giza 9 by 21 days in
north, 7 days in south, and 28 days in rainfed areas. Moreover, it showed considerable
yield stability and resistance to root-rot and wilt diseases. We recommend to grow Sinai
1 in rainfed and new reclaimed areas and in old lands in North Egypt specially before
cotton in cotton rotation farming systems, which may help to expand the cultivated area of
lentil in Egypt.
