VARIETAS HIBRIDA HARAPAN TEMBAKAU MADURA

Abstract
Description
Four hybrids resulted from the first generation of the crossing of madura and oiental tobaccos and Prancak-95 aa a standard vaiety were tested at several locations from 1997 to 2000 randomized block design. The experiments aimed at obtaining promising hybid varieties of the madura tobacco. The yield potency, quality and stability of the hybrids were tested by using the method of yau and HAMBLIN (1994), which was based on lite highest average and the loweat standard deviation. Two promising hybrids, i.e. PIS and PXA had quality and crop indexes higher and had lower content of nicotine compared to that of Prancak 95, and they were more adaptive compared with Prancak-95. The quality indexes of PIS, PXA and Prancak-95 were respectively 79.30 ; 75.65 and 65.02.
