The present field investigation entitled “Land use as influenced by intercrops in Broccoli (Brassic oleracea var. italica)” was carried out at Vegetable Experimental Farm, Division of Vegetable Science and Floriculture, SKUAST, Chatha, Jammu during rabi season of 2019-2020. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications compris...
The present investigation, “Leaf morpho-anatomical and molecular characterization of frost tolerant potato clones and in vitro micro-tuber production of promising clones’’ utilized the twenty potato accessions varying in their extent of frost tolerance. Significant variation was observed amongst accessions based on morpho-anatomical traits associated with frost ...
The investigation entitled “Level of self-incompatibility and inbreeding depression in tropical cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L. var. botrytis)” was carried out with the following objectives : (i) To study seed set under different modes of pollination. (ii) To estimate self-incompatibility within cultivar. (iii) To study inbreeding depression in S1 over open and s...
Bacterial wilt resistant determinate lines (7) and indeterminate testers (4) alongwith 28 hybrids developed as per line x tester mating design were evaluated alongwith standard check Avtar (7711) in Randomized Block Design with three replications at the Experimental Farm of Department of Vegetable Science and Floriculture, CSK HPKV, Palampur during summer-rainy sea...
The study entitled Line x Tester analysis for yield and bacterial wilt resistance in green brinjal (Solanum melongena L.) with the objectives of estimating magnitude of heterosis, combining ability effects and to identify the resistant sources for bacterial wilt resistance. The experimental material comprised of three lines viz., Arka Shirish, Mattugulla and Arka...
The present investigation was carried out at Vegetable Research Centre (VRC), G.B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar, Uttarakhand during Spring- summer season of 2012 and 2013. The major objectives of the study were to know the extent of heterosis, combining ability and various genetic parameters in tomato. Thirty crosses were evolved in a li...
In the present investigation, information on magnitude of heterosis, combining ability and stability parameters were obtained for fruit yield and its related components in brinjal adopting Line x Tester analysis involving twelve females, three males and their resultant 36 hybrids of brinjal, tested at three research stations of the university during late Kh...
