An experiment was conducted to evaluate effect of urea fertilizer on yield and yield components of Zea mays L. Using Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD) split plots in three replications in agricultural research farm of Balkh University by 2019. Doses of urea used in this experiment were 0, 80, 160 and 240 kg ha-1 , respectively. It has been found that amount of nitrogen fertilizer (urea) had significant effect on yield of maize at p<0.05. The higher level of nitrogen caused the higher grain yield, number of kernels per ear, the number of grains per ear row, ear diameter, cob length, grain per plant and plant height. As a result 7.76 ton ha-1 was recorded as high yield while 240 kg ha-1 urea was used, and 5.12 ton ha-1 was recorded as low yield in treatment one with 0 kg ha-1 of nitrogen fertilizer. Finally, as a result using 240 kg ha-1 nitrogen fertilizer is recommended.

Abstrak. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyeleksi tanaman jagung berdaya hasil tinggi. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di PT Syngenta Seed Indonesia Kediri Field Station dusun Sukodono desa Kedungmalang kecamatan Papar kabupaten Kediri, Jawa Timur yang berlangsung pada Mei sampai Oktober 2019. Rancangan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Rancangan Acak Kelompok (RAK) non faktorial dengan 24 genotipe uji, 4 genotipe pembanding (untuk uji daya hasil) dengan 2 ulangan. Pada uji daya hasil diperoleh 7 genotipe yaitu 18ID010144, 18ID010123, 18ID006020, 18ID010135, 18ID010125, 18ID007419 dan 18ID010148 yang memiliki daya hasil tinggi diatas genotipe pembanding daya hasil tertinggi. 24 genotipe uji yaitu 18ID010125 memiliki daya hasil 14,12 ton ha-1 genotipe 18ID010123 memiliki daya hasil tertinggi 15,28 ton ha-1 dan genotipe 18ID010148 memiliki daya hasil 13,91 ton ha-1. Yield Trial Screening on S5 Hybrid Maize (Zea mays L.)Abstract. This research aims to select maize are high yield. This research was conducted at PT Syngenta Seed Indonesia Kediri Field Station Sukodono in Sukodono sub-village, Kedungmalang village, Papar district, Kediri district, East Java, which took place from May to October 2019. The design used in this research was Non Factorial Randomized Block Design (RBD) with 24 test genotypes, 4 comparative genotypes (for yield trial) with 2 replications. The results showed that In yield trial was obtained 7 genotypes (18ID010144, 18ID010123, 18ID006020, 18ID010135, 18ID010125, 18ID007419 dan 18ID010148) which have high yields above the highest comparative yield genotypes. There were 3 genotypes selected from 24 test genotypes consist 18ID010125 has yield 14,12 tons ha-1,genotype 18ID010123 has the highest yield 15,28 tons ha-1 and genotype 18ID010148 has yield 13,91 tons ha-1.

Investigation was carried out to ascertain the genetic architecture for heat tolerance and yield components from diallel crosses in maize (Zea mays L.). The combining ability in both the normal and heat stress conditions revealed highly significant mean squares due to general combining ability (GCA) and specific combining ability (SCA) in both the direct and reciprocal crosses for all the characters except for anthesis-silking interval in normal condition of the reciprocal crosses. Estimate of components of variance for 13 characters revealed higher SCA variance than that of GCA and reciprocal crosses for all the characters. CML 411 was good general combiner for grain yield in both the conditions, whereas, CML 306 and CML 307 were good general combiners in heat stress condition, and CML 164, CML 304 and CML 305 were average general combiners in normal condition. On the basis of high yield, high SCA and at least high GCA of seed parent, the CML 411*CML 305 and CML 411*CML 307 were identified as promising hybrids for normal and heat stress conditions, respectively.

The present study investigated the stability and adaptability of maize (Zea mays L.) hybrids. In this study, 12 maize hybrids were planted and examined considering the grain yield. The experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications in four research stations in Iran during two crop years. The combined analysis of variance showed that genotype-environment interactions were significant at one percent probability level. The grain yield can stabilize, and hybrids with specific adaptability are recommended to each environment. Hybrids with specific adaptability can be recommended to all types of the environment. Means comparison yield of the genotypes identified DC370 as a high-yield genotype. Regarding AMMI analysis, genotype × environment interactions (GEIs) and two first components were found significant. The SC647 genotype was identified as the most stable genotype. Regarding the stability parameters, SC647 and KSC705 genotypes were selected as the most stable genotypes. From AMMI1 and AMMI2 graphs, the SC647 genotype was identified as the most stable genotype compared with other hybrids.
