    Studies on genetic veriability and character association for yield components and seed quality parameters in rice (Oryza sativa L.)
    (ANDUAT, Kumarganj, Ayodhya, 2017-06-28) Singh, Rishabh Kumar; Yadav, H.C.
    The present investigation was carried out at the Crop Research Station (CRS) Masodha, Faizabad, farm and seed quality parameters were tested in Seed Testing Laboratory of the Seed Technology Section, Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj, Faizabad (U.P.). In the present study the experimental material constituted 30 germplasm line with 3 check varieties viz., Shusk samrat, Narendra 359, Narendra 2064. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with three replications in normal soil under irrigated condition during Kharif 2016. Each entry was grown in 5 meter long single row plots with spacing 20 cm and 15 cm within row to row and plant to plant, respectively. The characters studie namely Days to 50% flowering, Days for maturity, Plant height (cm), Panicle length (cm), Seeds/panicle, 1000-seed weight (g), Seed yield/plant (g), Seed germination (%), Seedling dry weight (mg), Germination Index, Vigour index. The high magnitude of genotypic and phenotypic coefficients of variation were observed for seed per panicle, seed yield per plant, vigour index, plant height, indicating thereby, substantial scope for improving in this character after hybridization and subsequent selection the high estimate of heritability with high genetic advance in per cent of mean were observed for seed yield per plant, seed per panicle, vigour index and plant height. The highest seed yield per plant was produced by NDR-359 (28.49 g), while the lowest seed yield per plant were given by Jaya (12.18 g). The general mean calculated for this character was 18.02 g. Ten genotypes, namely, NDR-359, NDR-2024, NDR-2032, Shushk samrat, NDR-2031, Usar-2, NDR-2064, IET-16057, NDR-1087-10 and NDR-1018 were significantly produced seed yield per plant. The most desirable genotypes for characters other than seed yield were Heera, Gajgaur gonad, Karahani, Akatahawa, Dehula-1, NDR-1087-10, Tinpakhiya, NDR-1018, Sapana and Shushk samrat for early flowering; Heera, Tinpakhiya, Gajgaur gonad, Karahani, NDR-1087-10, NDR-1018, Dehula-1, Shushk samrat, Duddhi and Sapana for early maturity; Heera, IET-16068, Pant dhan-11, IET-16062, NDR-1087-10, Tinpakhiya, IET-16057, Gajgaur gonad, NDR-2064 and Jaya for dwarf plant height;

    Studies on seed and seedling characters in different varieties of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
    (ANDUAT,KUMARGANJ,AYODHYA, 2015-06-27) Mishra, Lokesh Kumar; Shrivastava, R.K.
    Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) commonly known as gram or Bengal gram is the most important pulse crop of India. In the present study, twenty genotypes of chickpea sowing wide spectrum of variation for various characters, were evaluated in laboratory and field condition for nine seed attributes during 2014- 15. The experiment was conducted following Randomized Block Design with three replications in seed testing laboratory of Seed Science and Technology Department, Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology, Kumarganj (Narendra Nager), Faizabad. The characters studied were seed volume (ml), 100-seed weight (g), seed germination (%), speed of germination (in lab), field emergence (%), shoot length (cm), root length (cm), seedling length (cm) and vigour index. Among the twenty chickpea genotypes ICCV 92944 (2372.49) followed by ICCV 14364 (2339.29), ICCV 88105 (2333.62), JAKI 9218 (2291.32), Phule G 5 (2015.08), JG 11 (2012.88), HC 3 (2009.30), Udai (1990.27), IPC 2004-52 (1906.90) and Vijay (1905.93) produced highest vigour index. The estimates of heritability with high genetic advance in per cent of mean wereobserved for seed volume and 100-seed weight. The two characters, mentioned above, having high values of heritability and genetic advance in per cent of mean emerged as ideal traits for improvement through selection.Vigour index and seedling length showed moderate heritability coupled with high to moderate genetic advance in per cent of mean which indicated possibility of obtaining reasonable response to selection in these owing to their moderate transmissibility.

    Studies on biofortification for the optimization of seed yield and its quality parameters in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.)
    (ANDUAT,KUMARGANJ,AYODHYA, 2015-07-24) Kumar, Pradeep; Chaudhary, R.K.
    The gram is mentioned in Sanskrit which indicates that it is cultivated in India since a longer period than in any other country in the world. Chickpea (Cicer arietnium L.) is an important Rabi season, self pollinated legume crop having extensive geographical distribution. Chickpea is known by different names in various countries such as Gram, Chana, Bengal gram etc. Chickpea is a diploid species with a chromosome number 2n = 16. Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) belongs to genus Cicer, tribe Cicereae, family Fabaceae, and subfamily Papilionaceae. Effect of sulphur and boron fertilization on yield, quality and nutrient uptake by chickpea was investigated.
