e0“Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) is one of the most important oilseed crops of the world, particularly tropical areas”
e3“Seed yield was significantly positively correlated with the no. of capsules, capsule diameter, and no. of seeds per capsule under both normal and drought conditions”

Other claims from this paper (10)
- Observation Heritability for plant height was 0.55.
- Observation Heritability for number of capsules was 0.72.
- Observation Heritability for capsule diameter was 0.60.
- Observation Heritability for number of seeds per capsule was 0.43.
- Observation Heritability for seed yield was 0.53.
- Intervention effect Seed yield of sesame genotypes was reduced by 45% under water stress.
- Recommendation Number of capsules and capsule diameter are suggested as criteria for indirect yield selection under drought stress in sesame.
- Observation Chinese (G01), Naz Chand Shakhe (G05) and Darab1 (G04) were the most tolerant sesame genotypes based on the average ranking of indices.
- Observation Stress/non-stress production index (SNPI), yield index (YI) and drought resistance index (DI) were the most efficient drought tolerance indices in sesame.
- Recommendation The evaluation criteria can be used for efficient selection of drought-tolerant sesame genotypes.
