Progeny testing is the second part of maternal recurrent selection scheme adopted by
INRA-Morocco for the national sugar beet breeding programme. The objective of this study is
sugar beet germplasm productivity, heritability and stability analysis. The studied material
concern 18 half-sib families (HSF) preselected initially for their seed production potential. Trials
were conducted using randomised complete blocks designs during, 2013/14, 2014/15, 2015/16,
2017/18 campaigns in two experimental fields of INRA-Morocco; Sidi Allal Tazi (34° 30' N, 6°
19' W) and Larache (35° 11’ N, 6° 09’ W). Evaluated parameters concern the vigour, root weight
(RW), leaf biomass yield (LBY), and sugar content (Sc). Data analysis by comparative
procedures explores different accordance degrees of HSF versus controls. Good vegetative
growth was observed, 85.6% closer to the maximal indicated scale level. The RW was
significantly influenced by the genotype and reached a maximum of 1.06 kg versus 1.08 kg
average recorded by controls. Sugar content recorded mean was 20.97% in HSF versus 21.39%
in the controls. Most of HSF revealed mean values close to Z-type variety. Estimated heritability
was 0.5 for RW, 0.2 for the LBY, and 0.02 for Sc. Sugar content was influenced by the
environment and explained by the AMMI model (73.6%) versus 53.9% and 44.4% for root weight
and leaf biomass yield respectively. The AMMI stability values showed F11, F12, F16, and F17
families as the most performing and stable HSF. Results demonstrate the relevance of the
maternal recurrent selection scheme of the on-going national breeding programme.
