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 WILD VIGNA SPECIES FOR SEEDLING WATER-LOGGING TOLERANCE AS REVEALED BY PHYSIO-CHEMICAL AND EXPRESSION PROFILING
    (Banda University of Agriculture & Technology, Banda-210001, Uttar Pradesh, India, 2022-08-24) Kumar I, Sandeep; Singh, C.M.
    Mungbean is the most important short duration grain legume. It is consumed as food and feed, fodder and manure crop. It has wider adaptability to array of environmental conditions, shorter life cycle and improves the soil health through symbiosis. These features indicated that there is an ample scope of vertical and horizontal expansion of mungbean worldwide. However, it is much weather sensitive crop in which water logging at early crop growth stage caused sever plant loss and stunted growth. The development of water logging tolerant mungbean varieties required the potential donors. The crop wild relatives (CWRs) and cross species Vigna possessed improved tolerance can be identified and introgressed in mungbean. The 32 Vigna accessions including cultivated and wild belong to nine different species were evaluated and six genotypes namely PRR 2008-2, PRR 2008-2-1, TCR-93, L-24, TCR-20 and W-17 were found as water logging tolerant. These tolerant genotypes had better survival, strong root system, proper shoot elongation and delayed chlorophyll degradation. The two genotypes PRR 2008-2-1 and PRR 2008-2 showed induction of adventitious roots from the hypocotyl region under water logging stres. The histochemical staining indicated the lower cell death in leaves of PRR 2008-2. The PRR 2008-2 showed formation of aerenchyma as adoptive mechanism as compare to IPM 2-3. The higher activity of ADH, proline and O2 were was recorded in PRR 2008-2 whereas it was lower in IPM 2-3. The expression of candidate genes and transcriptional factors provides a fundamental resources for understanding signaling behaviour, hormonal regulation and antioxidant homeostatsis involved in water logging tolerance.
