Abstract:The study aimed to screen the triticale cultivars with better comprehensive performance and provide the basis for the selection triticale parents in semi-arid irrigated area.Thirty triticale cultivars with good traits selected from China and overseas were used in this experiment,the triticale cultivars Shida No.1 and Zhongsi 1048 were used as the control.Plant height,fresh,hay yield,the ratio of fresh to dry weight,and nutritional values of these tested materials were studied.The grey relational analysis was used to comprehensively evaluate these triticale cultivars.The results indicated that plant height ranged from 103 cm to 172 cm;fresh(hay)yield and fresh dry ratio ranged from 9.12%~14.21%,53.88%~62.99%,34.49%~42.46%,respectively.Beilian No.5 had the highest fresh and hay yield,while Beilian No.3 had the highest fresh dry ratio among all cultivars.In terms of nutritional value,the Beilian No.3 had the highest crude protein content(14.21%),while the OH1411 had the lowest neutral detergent fiber content and acid detergent fiber content(53.88% and 34.49%,respectively).Comprehensive evaluation showed that Beilian No.5,Xinjiang No.5,OH1859,OH2236,Beilian No.3,826126,HH127,Xinjiang No.4 and An 83-25 had the highest comprehensive evaluation values,and higher than the two control cultivars,which would be suitable to be planted in Dingxi area and can be used as hybrid parents for offspring breeding.
