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.

    Residue dynamics and leaching potential of chlorantraniliprole in chilli crop
    (CCSHAU, 2017) Suman; Sushil
    The main objective of this study was to understand the persistence behaviour of new novel insecticide chlorantraniliprole (coragen 18.5 SC) in chilli fruit and its leaching behaviour in sandy loam soil. Recovery experiments were carried out at 0.01 and 0.05 Ī¼g/g fortification level in both chilli and soil samples for which average recoveries were found to be 85.23% and 87.46% in chilli samples and 85.92% and 87.11% in soil samples respectively. For dissipation / persistence study a field experiment was conducted following application of single dose (30 g a.i./ha) and double dose (60 g a.i./ha) on chilli crop. The initial residues of CAP at single and double doses were 3.16 and 4.68 mg/kg. Residues persisted upto 7th and 15th day in single and double doses respectively, after which BDL (0.01 mg/kg) comes. For single dose half-life value was of 1.18 days with degradation rate constant (k) value of 0.58 day -1. For double dose half-life was 2.05 days with degradation rate constant (k) value of 0.33 day-1. Leaching behavior of CAP in soil was studied at single (5.6 Ī¼g) and double dose (11.2 Ī¼g) respectively, for which soil plexi columns were packed and percolated with 35 ml of tap water after each 24 hours. Total amount of CAP recovered out of 5.6 and 11.2 Ī¼g were 82.40% and 81.42% from single and double doses respectively. Maximum retention of pesticide in both doses was in 0-5 cm soil core i.e. 79.82% in single dose and 79.11% in double dose. None of the leachate fractions from both the treatments showed the presence of chlorantraniliprole residue considering it safe for ground water table after field application.

    Evaluation of mango varieties for the preparation of mixed fruit bar
    (CCSHAU, 2006) Suman; Dhawan, S. S.
    The present investigation ā€œEvaluation of mango varieties for the preparation of mango-papaya fruit barā€ was conducted in the Centre of Food Science and Technology CCSHAU Hisar. Mixed fruit bar was prepared from five different mango varieties named Dasheri, Langra, Totapuri, Safeda and Sanduri papaya (local) with standardized method. In all the combination of mixed fruit bar the pulp percentage of mango and papaya was maintained at 60:40 ratio, TSS at 25%, acidity at 0.5%. The freshly prepared mixed fruit bar was evaluated for the nutritional and organoleptic property after processing and during storage for two months at room temperature. During storage the moisture content, ascorbic acid and total carotenoids decreased while total sugar, reducing sugar and acidity increased significantly. The analysis was also done to evaluate the proximate composition of fresh fruit i.e. papaya and five different mango varieties. The papaya fruit yielded 75.8% pulp, moisture of 89.2%, TSS of 8.0%, acidity 0.1%, ascorbic acid 51.2-mg/100g and total carotenoids 2.5 mg/100g. Among different varieties of mango Dasheri mango had the better quality as compared to others varieties followed by Langra, Safeda, Totapuri and Sanduri. After preparation of mixed fruit bar from various varieties Langra variety was rated best in combination with papaya in terms of nutritional and keeping quality followed by variety Sanduri, Safeda, Totapuri and Dasheri with papaya pulp. There were significant changes observed in organoleptic quality of mango papaya bar during storage period and they remained acceptable upto two months of storage during period of study.

    Screening and characterization of Mesorhizobium ciceri isolates for antagonistic effect to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceri
    (CCSHAU, 2010) Suman; Yadav, A.S.
    Screening and characterization of Mesorhizobium ciceri isolates for antagonistic effect to Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceriā€ was investigated on 207 isolates obtained from the nodules of chickpea plant. The growth of these 207 isolates was checked on YEMA Congo red medium. Out of 207 isolates, 117 were fast growing and 90 were slow growing rhizobia. These 207 isolates were screened for their anagonistic effect against Fusarium oxysporum. Out of 207 isolates, seven isolates were found to be antagonistic to F. oxysporum. Size of inhibition zone varied among the seven isolates from 5 mm to 15 mm. MC99 produced the largest inhibition zone. These seven isolates were further studied for antibiotic, siderophore, indole acetic acid (IAA) production and phosphate solubilization. None of the seven isolates was producing antibiotic. Out of these seven isolates, MC84, MC96, MC99 were producing siderophore and MC69, MC180, MC183 and MC190 were not producing siderophore. So, the mechanism of antagonism might be different in all these isolates. All the seven isolates were produing IAA, which varied among these isolates. The isolate MC99 was producing maximum indole acetic acid. None of the seven isolates was solubilizing tricalcium phosphate. In the present study, the isolate MC99 was found to be having maximum antagonistic activity against F. oxysporum, as it produced maximum zone of inhibition against this fungus. It had also the maximum amount of IAA and siderophore.
