Abstract
A newly developed wheat variety NARC 2009 performed significantly superior to wheat cultivar GA 2002, however, it was statistically at par with Wafaq 2001. The experiment was laid out using randomized complete block design (RCBD) with split plot arrangement to evaluate a wheat genotype NARC 2009 in comparison to wheat cultivars (cvs.) GA 2002 and Wafaq 2001 in interaction with three nitrogen to phosphorous penta oxide (N:P2O5) ratios (58-58, 85-58 and 115-85). Non-significant effect of N:P2O5 ratios was set up for grain yield representing 58-58 kg ha-1 as an economical ratio. Highest grain yield of 5120 kg ha-1 was achieved with NARC 2009 hence resulting in 28 percent greater yield than cv. GA 2002 (4007 kg ha-1 ). Variation in growth and yield was presumably ascribed to genetic make up of the genotypes.
