Abstract
ABSTRACT: This study was carried out at Gemmeiza and Sids Experimental Stations, Agricultural Research Center (ARC), Egypt. During the two- successive seasons from 2011 and 2012. In 2011 summer season, at Gemmeiza Agricultural Research Station, the S1 recurrent selection procedure was applied in the new improved cycle (C0) in the white population (AED Pop.). One hundred and twenty one ears with enough seeds were selected and each was divided into two parts, the first one was assigned for evaluating all studied traits and protein analysis. The second part was kept as remnant S1 seeds for developing the second cycle for each population. In 2012 summer season, at Gemmeiza and Sids Research Stations, one evaluation trial was conducted. The trial was executed Randomize Complete Block Design (RCBD) with three replications. Data were recorded for grain yield its component and protein yield.
