Abstract: An experiment was conducted to evaluate the “Seed yield performance of different maize (Zea mays L.) genotypesunder agro climatic conditions of Haripur†. The experiment was sown on 17th May, 2015, at Research Farm of the University of Haripur. Four different varieties of maize (PS-1, PS-2, PS-3 and Iqbal check) were tested in the experiment. The experiment was laid out in randomized complete block design with three replications. The data recorded on various parameters were analyzed using computer software Statistics 8.1. For mean separation LSD test was used. The analyzed data revealed significant differences for various parameters studied. Mean values of the data indicated that PS-1 and PS-2 produced tallest plants (212.1 and 201.7 cm), higher number of rows ear-1 (15.6 and 14.8), Maximum number of grains ear-1 (531.3 and 518.7) and greater thousand grains weight (330 and 327 g), respectively.
