Evaluación agronómica de adaptabilidad y rendimiento de 15 cultivares de ajonjolí (Sesamun Índicum L.) en la zona agroecológica de Caluma, provincia Bolívar

Sesame or sesame sedge is more content in seed oils, may vary from 41 to 63% of the total weight thereof, depending on the variety and growing conditions. It may also contain from 17 to 32% protein; 18-20% carbohydrates mainly fibers; essential amino acids including methionine stand. World production in 2004 was 3,092 million tons, which showed growth of 9.5% compared to 2000. America's largest producers are Paraguay, Guatemala, Mexico and Venezuela. In Ecuador it is grown in the provinces of Manabi: Portoviejo; Guayas: Miracle and Pedro Carbo. This research was conducted at the Farm The Triumph of the UEB 350 meters. The objectives in this research were: I. Assess the main agronomic traits of 15 cultivars of sesame. ii.- Select the best cultivars of sesame for the agro-ecological area under study. iii.- generate a database of agronomic characterization of 15 sesame varieties for the agro-ecological zone Caluma. In this study 15 cultivars of sesame complete design Random (RCBD) with 3 replications Blocks Analysis of variance, Tukey test, correlation and regression was performed was applied were evaluated. Treatment with a higher load height was the T13 with 65.07 cm and which had the highest yield was the T14 to 2396.29 kg/ha al 14% humidity. Finally, this study allowed us select promising sesame germplasm for this agro-ecological zone to improve the efficiency of local production systems
