The present investigation was carried out with the objective of enhancement for stripe rust resistance in the adapted varieties of wheat grown under timely sown irrigated conditions. The material for the experiment consisted of six stripe rust resistant lines and three adapted varieties of wheat crossed in Line x Tester design during off season of 2013 at Dalang Maidan, Lahaul Spiti, and Himachal Pradesh. The F1s were grown during rabi 2013 at Research Farm, Division of Plant Breeding and Genetics, SKUAST Chatha, Jammu. The results revealed that the variances due to parents, hybrids and parents v/s hybrids were significant. The parent with the minimum plant height was DWR 19 (79.73 cm.), maximum number of effective tillers per plant was DPW 621-50 (14 tillers), minimum days to 50% flowering was DWR 41 at 61 days, maximum grains per spike was PBW 550 (54.67) and minimum days to maturity were DWR 46 and PBW 550 at 135 days. Amongst the crosses, minimum plant height was observed in DWR 46 x RSP 561(49.67 cm), maximum number of tillers was IBWSN1175 x PBW 550 with 16.67 tillers, maximum spike length with IBWSN1175 x RSP 561 and DWR 19 x RSP 561 had spike length measuring 14.17 cm, minimum days to 50% flowering were IBWSN1047 x PBW 550 and DWR 41 x RSP 561 with 60 days, maximum value for this trait were IBWSN1175 x PBW 550 (56.67), maximum grain yield per plant was IBWSN1175 x PBW 550.
