The present investigation entitled, “Screening of Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench) germplasm against Okra Yellow Vein Mosaic Virus disease under field condition” was conducted at All India Co-ordinated Research Project on Vegetable Crops of OUAT, Bhubaneswar, Odisha during summer season of 2015. The objective was to study the genetic variability and scre...
The screening wascarried out undertwo conditions, control laboratory environment andnaturally ventilated polyhouse maintaining 25 pea genotypes at 3 levels of Al (control, 12 ppm and 24 ppm). Different genotypes of pea plants were grown in pots filled with aluminium treated soil. In polyhouse, screening was carried out using growth characters, root tolerance index ...
An investigation on screening of ridge gourd [Luffa acutangula (L.) Roxb.] genotypes against leaf miner, Liriomyza trifolii (Burgess) and fruit fly, Bactrocera cucurbitae (Coquillett) was undertaken during the year 2012-2013 at the Department of Horticulture Entomology K.R.C.C.H., Arabhavi, Karnataka. The level of leaf miner and fruit fly infestations was varie...
The Collected data were analyzed statisticall and means were adjudged at 5% level of probability. ANOVA for different yield contributing and some qualitative characters showed a high degree of variation among the genotypes used. It was further revealed that in general, high yielding genotypes showed superior performance in result of biochemical and yield contributi...
Carrot (Daucus carota L.) is most important root crop worldwide nutritionally and as a protective food, because it is a rich source of ß-carotene, fiber and other dietary nutrients. The investigation on “Seasonal response of carrot (Daucus carota L.) genotypes for yield and quality parameters” was carried out in the field of Vegetable Science, Kittur Rani Chann...
