    (ANDUAT, Kumarganj,Ayodhya, 2021-06-14) Gupta, Mohit; Yadav, R.D.S.
    The present investigation entitled “Studies on genetic variability, diversity and stability behaviour of seed yield, its contributing traits and seed quality parameters in Indian mustard { Brassica juncea ( L.) Czern & Coss }” was carried out in randomized block design with three replications during 2018-19 and 2019-20 to study the nature and magnitude of variability, character association, divergence and stability behaviour for twenty two parameters among 65 genotypes. The findings revealed that a wide range of variability observed for these yields and its contributing traits among sixty five genotypes. Based on per se performance, the genotype Varuna produced maximum seed yield followed by Vardan, Kranti, NDR8501 and SIVT17-47. The phenotypic coefficients of variation (PCV) were higher than genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) for all the characters. High estimates of PCV as well as GCV were observed for 1000-seed weight followed by number of primary branches per plant, number of secondary branches per plant, harvest index, number of total branches per plant, seed yield per plant, number of seed per siliqua, number of siliqua on main raceme per plant, length of main raceme, biological yield per plant, number of siliqua per plant, plant height, days to 50 % flowering and days to maturity. The high heritability accompanied with high genetic advance was observed for number of siliqua per plant, plant height, length of main raceme, number of siliqua on main raceme per plant, harvest index, number of total branches per plant, seed yield per plant, days to 50 % flowering, biological yield per plant, days to maturity, number of secondary branches per plant, 1000-seed weight and number of primary branches per plant. The seed yield had significant positive correlations with harvest index, number of total branches per plant, number of secondary branches per plant, number of primary branches per plant, number of siliqua per seeds, 1000-seed weight, days to maturity, plant height and length of main raceme. At phenotypic level among other traits, days to 50 % flowering exhibited highly significant and positive phenotypic correlation with plant height, days to maturity, biological yield per plant, 1000-seed weight, number of siliqua per plant, number of total branches per plant, number of secondary branches per plant and primary branches per plant. The phenotypic path coefficient identified that seed yield per plant was highly exhibited via harvest index followed by number of total branches per plant, biological yield per plant, days to 50 % flowering, number of siliqua per plant, number of seed per siliqua and exhibited highest negative direct effect was noted with secondary branches per plant followed by primary branches per plant. The genotypic path coefficient seed yield was positive and directly effected by number of total branches per plant followed by harvest index, biological yield per plant, length on main raceme, number of siliqua per plant. Secondary branches per plant exhibited highest negative direct effect on seed yield per plant followed by number of primary branches per plant and days to 50 % flowering. The highest number of genotypes was appered in cluster IV followed by cluster II, cluster VIII, cluster I, cluster VI, cluster VII, cluster IX, cluster III, cluster V, cluster III, and cluster VII. The pooled analysis of variance indicated that highly significant differences were observed among the genotypes for all the traits. Mean squares due to environments were showed highly significant differences for all the parameters. Genotypic x environment interactions were significant for all the parameters except plant height, number of seed per siliqua, 1000-seed weight and seed yield per plant. Environment + (genotype × environment) interactions were highly significant for all the parameters. The mean squares due to environment (linear) were also significant for all parameters.

    (ANDUAT,Kumarganj, Ayodhya, 2021-01) Purushottam; Yadav, R.D.S.
    The present investigation entitled “Studies on seed enhancement in rice (Oryzasativa L.)” was taken up at student instructional farm of Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology KumarganjAyodhya during Kharif session 2017 and 2018. Three improved and diverse cultivars namely, NDR-2064, ShuskSamrat and shabha Sub-1 were included. Dry (moisture, 11-12%) and uniform seed of three varieties were subjected to seed priming treatments viz.,GA3 @ 200 ppm, KNO3 @ 200 ppm, KCL @ 200 ppm, IAA @ 50 ppm, Thiram @ 2.5g/kg,Trichodermaviride @ 5g/kg,Pseudomonas fluorescence @ 5g/kg, solid matrix sand and Control (unprimed/untreated) for 12 and 16 hrs separately and dried under shadow to bring down the moisture content to the original level (11-12%). Untreated seed of varieties were served as respective control. Treated seed along with control were divided in two parts. In first part, seed were subjected in laboratory to record the various seed quality parameters viz.,seed germination (%), speed of germination, seed moisture content (%), root length (cm), shoot length (cm), seedling length (cm), and vigour index as per ISTA rules (Anonymous., 2013). The second part of seed were used for conducting the field experiment in randomized block deign with 3 replications Recommended package of practices was followed time to raise an ideal crop. Ten random plants were selected for taking the observations viz., plant height (cm), number of panicle bearing tillers/plant, panicle length (cm) and number of grain/panicle. Days to 50% flowering and day taken of maturity were observed on plot basis. Physiologically matured corps were harvested treatment/plot wise, dried, threshed and weighed. The yield obtained on plot wise was converted in to q/ha. One thousand seed were randomly counted and weighed. Harvest index was computed as economic (grain) yield (q/ha)/biological yield (q/ha). The most effective seed priming treatment was KNO3 @ 200 ppm followed by GA3 @ 200 ppm and KCL @ 200 ppm applied for 16 hrs.

    (ANDUAT,Kumarganj,Ayodhya, 2021-07-31) Sharma, Saurabh; Vimal, S.C.
    The present experiment entitled “Studies on terminal heat mitigation in Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L.” was taken up during Rabi 2020-21 at Students Instructional Farm of Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture and Technology (Narendra Nagar) Kumarganj, ayodhya (Uttar Pradesh). The experiment was conducted on Indian mustard variety NDR-8501 were sown in three different date of sowing viz. D1 15 October, 30 October and 15 November with application of heat induces chemicals. The experimental site was characterized by 0.33 % organic carbon, 180 kg available N/ha, 11.80 available kg/ha P2O5, 180 kg available K2O/ha, 8.8 pH and 0.96 dS/m electrical conductivity (EC). The days to 50% flowering , Plant height (cm), main raceme length (cm), Number of siliqua on main raceme, number of unfilled siliqua on main raceme, number of primary branches per plant, number of secondary branches per plant, number of total branches per plant, number of seeds per siliqua, 1000-seed weight (gm), germination %, seedling length (cm), vigour index, biological yield per plant (gm), seed yield per plant (gm) and harvest index were recorded following ISTA rules. The result was observed significantly induced most of Quantitative and qualitative traits like Plant height (cm), number of primary branches per plant, number of secondary branches per plant, number of seeds per siliqua, seed yield, germination %, seedling length (cm) and vigour index in D2 (30 October). In case of heat inducing chemicals the higher growth components, seed yield and its contributing traits were recorded when applying of salicylic acid (800ppm) followed by salicylic acid (400ppm) and KNo3 (0.3%). Interaction effect between date of sowing and heat inducing chemicals was also observed. As the sowing delayed, seed yield and its contributing traits was poor performance due to terminal heat stress. Thus by applying heat inducing chemicals, the seed yield could be substituted even delaying in sowing by the month of November and vice-versa.
