Abstract

Three lines of Brassica carinata 08–304, 08–312, 08–316 derived from inter specific hybridization were evaluated for morphological traits during 2007–08 and 2008–09. These lines showed significant increase in shoot length, 1000seed weight and significant decrease in maturity duration as compared to check Kiran. Development of these lines is important for Karan rai improvement programme in India.
