Abstract
A field experiment was conducted during summer season of 2022 on Demonstration Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of Kassala, New Halfa, to study the effect of water stress on the performance of two sesame varieties namely umm shagara (V1) and Bromo(V2). The split plot experiment was carried out in a RCBD with three replicates. The water stress treatments were: irrigation (repeated) every two weeks, skipping an irrigation at the flowering stage, skipping an irrigation at the seed filling stage. The results showed that, water stress treatments led to a significant decrease in leaf area, and dry weight, which was reflected in a significant decrease in productivity and its components, and harvest index. While the (V1) was significantly superior in the leaf area, dry weight, number of pods, seeds weight per plant, the highest weight of1000 seeds, and seed productivity compared to the (V2) which was superior in harvest index. The W1 × V1 intervention treatment led to a significant increase in the leaf area and dry weight of the plant. While W3 × V2 treatment recorded the highest relative moisture content(RWC). However, V1 under W1 is considered better for growing sesame in the New Halfa area, although the V2 has the ability to maintain the RWC under the conditions of the New Halfa area.
