Özet
This research was conducted to compare yield, yield and quality characteristics of triticale and barley cultivars in Diyarbakyr ecological conditions in Applying Research Farm, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Dicle during 2001-02 and 2002-03 growing seasons as randomized complete block design with three replications. Tatlycak-97, Karma-2000, Presto, Melez-2001 and Tacettinbey triticale cultivars and Erginel-90 and Kyral-97 barley cultivars were used as material in this research. According to the results as average of two years, statistically significant differences were found between cultivars in terms of agronomical traits such as plant height (104.66 cm in triticale and 100.51 cm in barley), the number of tillers per plant (3.14 in triticale and S. 14 in barley), days to heading (185.60 in triticale and 157.42 in barley), spike lengths (10.60 cm in triticale and 6.23 cm in barley), the number of grains per spike (41.27 in triticale and 44.23 in barley), grain yields (3515.7 kg/ha in triticale and 3055.7 kg/ha in barley); quality traits such as 1000-grain weight (37.13 g in triticale and 34.73 g in barley), protein percentage (11.25% in triticale and 9.68% in barley) and feeding traits such as fresh herbage yields (12508.7 kg/ha in triticale and 10569.4 kg/ha in barley) and dry herbage yields (3341.4 kg/ha in triticale and 2124.2 kg/ha in barley) in this research. It was concluded that Melez-2001 cultivar better adapted on account of grain yield and grain quality to regional conditions in triticale cultivation, Presto triticale cultivar was earlier. Because Tacettinbey and Tatlycak-97 cultivars showed high values with regard to fresh and dry herbage yields between both triticale and barley cultivars, they were found important as alternative cereal plants for animal feeding in this region. These cultivars can be expected to become widespread in areas where wheat and barley could not be grown economically.
