In an experiments on assessment and identification of elite Indian wheat genotypes, IC138896, IC138893, IC28664, IC35069, IC532841, IC534435, IC534777, IC534787, IC82197, and IC82198, showed high kernel weight compared to ‘Moti (HD-1949)’. These can be gainfully used as parental lines in breeding for increasing grain weight, both for hybridization and selection.
