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.

    Studies on in vitro plant regeneration in Capsicum (Capsicum annuum L.)
    (CCSHAU, 2014) Hegde, Vivek; Partap, P.S.
    Development of an efficient plant regeneration system is a pre-requisite for any plant biotechnological approach for crop improvement. In this regard the in vitro regeneration from cotyledon and hypocotyl explants from aseptically raised seedlings of popular Capsicum F1 hybrids Bharat and Indra was achieved. The anther culture was also tried to produce double haploids. Seeds of both hybrids were exposed to different treatments for proper germination. The treated seeds were decontaminated and placed in a half-strength MS medium and then incubated in 16h photoperiod for germination. The seed soaked in distilled water along with GA3 at 2 mg/l for two days prior to sowing had more pronounced effect on both capsicum hybrids recording maximum germination (90.45 and 84.59 %, respectively) and that also in minimum number of days (9.67 days and 10.33 days, respectively). Tissue culture responses to morphogenesis varied with the genotypes, source of explants, type of explants and combinations of growth regulators used. Per cent regeneration (96.30%), number of shoots per explants (4.56) and per cent elongation (82.10%) was maximum in hybrid Indra from cotyledons having abaxial side in contact with growing medium supplemented with zeatin at 7.5 mg/l along with GA3 at 2.0 mg/l. Cent per cent rooting, optimum number of roots (27.56 and 23.65, respectively) and root length (4.94 cm and 7.71 cm, respectively) were observed when regenerated shoots cultured on MS media supplemented with IBA at 0.5 mg/l in both the hybrids. The survival percentage of regenerated plantlets was higher in Indra (92.31%) as compared to Bharat (85.71%) during hardening in pots containing sterile mixture of coco-peat and vermiculite (1:1) and thereafter in pots containing soil. Anthers of both hybrids were collected at three different stages of microspore development and cultured on medium supplemented with different ratios of growth regulators and additives. The effect of heat treatment at 35oC for seven days on androgenesis was also examined. Androgenic callus induction was best on heat treated anthers cultured on media supplemented with zeatin at 1.0 mg/l along with 2,4-D at 0.2 mg/l and AgNO3 at15 mg/l in both the hybrids (54.02% and 60.92%, respectively) and hybrid Indra responded better than Bharat. The effect of different cytokinins (BAP, kinetin, TDZ and zeatin) along with NAA on regeneration of androgenic callus was also studied, however, shoot induction could not be achieved. Hence, greening of callus in particular medium was recorded. The MS media supplemented with kinetin at 7.5 mg/l along with NAA at 0.2 mg/l recorded maximum per cent greening of callus i.e. 53.33% and 51.11% in hybrid Indra and Bharat, respectively.

    Effect of manures and biofertilizers on growth and yield of garlic
    (CCSHAU, 2012) Ramesh Kumar; Avtar Singh
    The experiment entitled “Effect of manures and biofertilizers on growth and yield of garlic” was conducted at Research Farm of the Department of Vegetable Science, CCS HAU, Agricultural University, Hisar during winter season of 2009-10. The experiment comprised the 15 treatments (manures and biofertilizers) and was laid out in a Randomized Block Design with three replications. Net plot size was kept 2.25× 2 m. Ten competitive plants were observed randomly from each experimental treatment to record data on various parameters that were influenced by different manures and biofertilizers. Plant height, number of leaves per plant, average length of leaves, average breadth of leaves were found maximum with treatment T6 followed by T11 at 45, 60 and 90 DAS and same trend was observed in case of average bulb diameter, bulb neck thickness, average bulb weight, number of clove per bulb, clove size, total plant biomass and shoot weight per plant. The yield parameters of garlic were significantly influenced by different manures and biofertilizers. The yield of garlic was found maximum with treatment of T11 (124.24 q/ha) which was on par with T9 (124.05 q/ha). The lowest garlic yield was observed with T15 (114.06 q/ha). HG-17 produced highest leaf dry matter (%), Bulb dry matter (%) and total soluble solids along with treatment of T6 followed by T11 and T14.
