Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda

Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda has been established as a full-fledged State University, having unique honour of being the “First Agricultural University of Bundelkhand Region”. The University was notified vide Government Order No. 301/79-V-1-10-1 (Ka) 27-2009 Lucknow and established on 2nd March 2010 under Uttar Pradesh Agriculture University Act (Sanshodhan) 1958 Gazette-Adhiniyam 2010. Initially it was named as “Manyawar Shri Kanshiram Ji University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda”, which was changed as “Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda” vide Uttar Pradesh Agriculture University Act (Sanshodhan) Adhiniyam, 2014, No. 1528(2)/LXXIX-V-1-14-1(Ka)-13-2014 dated 4th December 2014. The University has been established for the development of the agriculture and allied sectors in the Uttar Pradesh on the whole and Bundelkhand region in particular. It is committed to serve the Bundelkhand region with trinity concept, i.e. complete integration of teaching, research and extension for the development of agriculture and allied sectors in order to ensure food security and enhance socio-economic status of inhabitants. State Government of Uttar Pradesh has assigned the University with the responsibilities of (a) human resource generation and development, (b) generation and perfection of technologies, and (c) their dissemination to the farmers, orchardists and dairy farmers in the Chitrakoot Dham and Jhansi divisions. The Chirtrkoot Dham Division consists of four districts, namely Banda, Chitrakoot (Karvi), Mahoba and Hamirpur whereas Jhansi Division consists of Jhansi, Lalitpur and Jalaun (Orai) districts.

    “Characterization of Lentil Genotypes for Yield Component and Terminal Heat Stress Tolerance Traits”
    (BANDA UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE & TECHNOLOGY,BANDA, UTTAR PRADESH, INDIA, 2022-08-08) Kumar, Deepak
    Lentil is a cool-season food legume with an excellent source of protein, prebiotic carbohydrates, minerals, and vitamins. The present investigation was carried out at P.G. Research farm of College of Agriculture, BUAT, Banda, Uttar Pradesh, India in augmented block design during Rabi season 2021-22. The experimenting materials comprised of 123 genotypes of lentil containing exotic as well as indigenous germplasm lines of lentil including three check varieties viz. KM-1, KM-2 and PANT L-7. The data were recorded under two environments viz. timely sown (E1) and late sown (E2) for sixteen morpho-physiological characters for estimation of DUS characterization, analysis of variance, correlation coefficient, heat susceptibility index, yield stability index and principal component analysis. The considerable morphological diversity has been found especially in foliage intensity of green color, leaflet size, plant growth habit, seed size, and seed testa colour. Analysis of variance showed that wide range of variability under both environmental conditions. A wide range of estimates in the mean performance of genotypes was found for all characters under both the environmental conditions. LSS-18- 149, L-112-6 were identified as heat tolerant genotypes on the basis of HSI for economic yield/plant. An overall appraisal revealed that eight genotypes viz. KLS 1461, KLS1453, KL-09-01, KL 127, LOCAL, WBL-58, L-112-6 and EC-542186 exhibited highly heat tolerance on the basis of heat susceptibility index and yield stability index for economic yield/plant under both the conditions. Correlation coefficient of HSI and YSI among different traits exhibited significant and positive correlation of economic yield/plant with effective pods/plant, secondary branches/plant, total pods/plant and biological yield/plant. Principal component analysis exhibited highest cumulative variability of PC6 which contributed 65.7% in E1 and 67.4% E2 among all traits. Economic yield/plant was positively correlated with the no. of effective pods/plant, biological yield/plant, total chlorophyll content, canopy temperature depression and no. of secondary branches/plant in both the condition of normal and heat stress.
