Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Capsule width, capsule length and corolla length showed high heritability in wild sesame accessions.
- Observation Seed area and test weight showed high heritability in wild sesame accessions.
- Observation Multivariate analyses revealed significant clustering patterns among the sesame accessions.
- Observation Wild accessions IC621506 and IC557250 outperformed cultivated sesame species for early maturity.
- Observation Wild accessions IC409053, IC204658, IC208661 and IC208662 outperformed cultivated sesame species for capsule number.
- Observation Wild accessions IC208661, IC208662 and IC409053 outperformed cultivated sesame species for seed yield per plant.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that the novel wild accessions are valuable genetic resources for broadening the cultivated sesame gene pool.
