Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar
Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University popularly known as HAU, is one of Asia's biggest agricultural universities, located at Hisar in the Indian state of Haryana. It is named after India's seventh Prime Minister, Chaudhary Charan Singh. It is a leader in agricultural research in India and contributed significantly to Green Revolution and White Revolution in India in the 1960s and 70s. It has a very large campus and has several research centres throughout the state. It won the Indian Council of Agricultural Research's Award for the Best Institute in 1997. HAU was initially a campus of Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana. After the formation of Haryana in 1966, it became an autonomous institution on February 2, 1970 through a Presidential Ordinance, later ratified as Haryana and Punjab Agricultural Universities Act, 1970, passed by the Lok Sabha on March 29, 1970. A. L. Fletcher, the first Vice-Chancellor of the university, was instrumental in its initial growth.

ThesisItem Open Access Studies on rice root-knot nematode, meloidogyne graminicola golden and birchfield, 1965 with emphasis on its management in rice nursery(CCSHAU, 2018) Matcha, Udaya Kumar; Kanwar, R.S.Survey of rice nurseries for M. graminicola in Ambala, Kaithal, Karnal, Kurukshetra, Panchkula and Yamunanagar districts of Haryana showed that 55.0% samples in in situ and 80.0 % samples after bioassay were infected with rice root-knot nematode. Nematode infestation was more in sandy loam than loamy sand and loam soils. In the experiment on the effect of M. graminicola on absorption and translocation of nutrients from the soil, at all three levels of 0, 2, and 4 J2/g soil, maximum plant growth parameters were observed in the treatment with all nutrients (shoot weight 2.4 g, root weight 2.2 g and shoot length 21.9 cm) and minimum in treatment where no nutrient was applied (shoot weight 1.3 g, root weight 1.0 g and shoot length 15.1 cm). Nematode population per plant was more (2650.0) in treatment where no nutrients were applied and minimum in potassium treatment (1895.6). The nutrient content of N, P, K, Zn, Fe and Cu were more in soil, in their respective treatments where the individual nutrients were applied alone. The data on uptake of nutrients in rice seedlings revealed the maximum uptake of nutrients (N 23.0%, P 12.7 %, K 19.4 %, Zn 14.3 ppm, Fe 20.5 ppm, and Cu 6.0 ppm) in rice seedlings was recorded in control (0 J2/g soil). Among the treatments maximum nutrients uptake was observed in treatment where all nutrients were applied in soil (N 15.1 %, P 11.7 %, K 14.9 %, Zn 13.6 ppm, Fe 21.0 ppm and Cu 4.1 ppm). Amount of nutrients was more in soil at 4 J2/g soil (N 151.5 mg, P 33.7 mg, K 125.2 mg, Zn 37.5 ppm, Fe 78.2 ppm, and Cu 20.4 ppm per kg soil) than 2J2/g soil (N 140.0 mg, P 32.9 mg, K 123.7 mg, Zn 31.5 ppm, Fe 74.5 ppm, and Cu 19.4 ppm per kg soil). Among five bacterial isolates evaluated for nematoxicity, Bacillus strain (RKB-91) showed best results on nematode mortality as well as in inhibiting egg hatching at S/2 concentration in both cell cultures and cell free culture filterates. This strain also suppressed the nematode population as well as promoted plant growth. Among neem, cabbage and cauliflower, neem showed best results in terms of nematode mortality at 100 % concentration and > 50% hatching inhibition at 1:10 dilution. It reduced the nematode population and improved plant growth in pots. In vitro results on synthetic chemicals showed that the Coumarin carbamate series, Coumarin I and Coumarin III gave > 50% on mortality of nematode as well as hatching supression at 1000 and 500 ppm concentration. In planta study revealed that Coumarin carbamate III and Coumarin Carbamate V were more effective in reducing the nematode population and improving plant growth. Integration of different treatments for the management of M. graminicola in rice nursery showed that application of Bacillus sp. (RKB-91) + Neem extract + Coumarin carbamate III ranked first in reducing the galls as well as the nematode population and also in improving the plant growth.ThesisItem Open Access Studies on cereal cyst nematode, heterodera avenae woll. on wheat (Triticum aestivum) with emphasis on nutrients(CCSHAU, 2018) Yadav, Saroj; Kanwar, R.S.Investigations were carried out on absorption and translocation of nutrients in wheat infected with Heterodera avenae, its management through organic amendments, crop rotation and additional fertilizers as soil application and spray. Effect of fertilizers on emergence of larvae from cyst was also studied. Absorption and translocation of nutrients in wheat was hampered by nematode. Combination of all four nutrients promoted plant growth and reduced nematode population. N, P, K and Zn contents in soil were more, in their respective treatments, where the individual nutrients were applied. Amount of nutrients was more in infested soil than uninfested soil. Combination of all the four nutrients increased the nutrient uptake in wheat and nutrient content in straw and grain was more in uninfested soil. Organic amendments reduced nematode populations and increased plant growth both with and without nematicide. Castor cake at 20g/kg soil increased plant growth but neem cake at same dose gave maximum population reduction. All the organic amendments performed better in combination with nematicide than alone. Recommended doses of fertilizers with urea (2.5 %) + zinc (0.5 %) spray at 30 days after sowing followed by kinetin (100 ppm) spray at 40 days after sowing improved maximum plant growth but 30 % higher dose of fertilizers reduced maximum nematode population. Fenugreekwheat rotation increased plant growth more than other rotations but mustard-wheat and cabbage-wheat rotations reduced maximum nematode population. Fenugreek and gram increased N content in soil but maize reduced the N and P content and cabbage reduced the K content in soil. Nematode penetration occurred in susceptible wheat, resistant wheat and maize but not in gram, fenugreek, mustard, cabbage, garlic and onion. Under laboratory conditions, all fertilizers suppressed larval emergence from cysts, except zinc, which stimulated it. In pots, minimum nematodes in soil and roots were found at higher dose of urea. In zinc larvae in roots and soil were less than untreated check (water) but higher than other fertilizer treatments.ThesisItem Open Access Studies on the efficacy of agro-industrial wastes for the management of root-knot nematode (Meloidogyne incognita) infecting brinjal (Solanum melongena L.)(College of Agriculture Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University Hisar, 2003) Singh, Sardul; Gupta, D.
