Abstract
Wheat is the second most significant cereal crop after rice and it is grown all over the world. Wheat is a common source of energy, carbohydrates, proteins and nutrition for the global people. Wheat serves more than 4.5 billion people throughout the globe with 20% of their daily calories and 20% of their protein. The present research work was carried out at Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Banasthali Vidyapith, Rajasthan during crop season 2019–2020. Ten genotypes of varying maturity time were used in this study. The data on germination rate, plant vigour and Days to heading (DH) were recorded. Germination rate of the genotypes under timely and late sown conditions were 52.21 and 55.08% respectively. The germination rate of the genotypes in late sown showed higher germination percentage as compared to timely sown.
