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.

    ASSESSMENT OF GENETIC DIVERSITY FOR YIELD AND FRUIT QUALYTY TRAITS IN TOMATO (Solanum lycopersicum L.)
    (DEPARTMENT OF VEGETABLE SCIENCE COLLEGE OF HORTIICULTURE BANDA UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE & TECHNOLOGY, BANDA- 210001, UTTAR PRADESH, INDIA, 2023-08-16) AKANKSHA RAI; Sunil Kumar
    An investigation was carried out at Vegetable research farm of Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda, U.P. on the prescribed topic “Assessment of genetic diversity for yield and fruit quality traits in Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L)” during late kharif 2022-23, with objective to estimate to assess genetic variability for yield and fruit quality traits, to estimate correlation coefficient among yield and fruit quality traits and to estimate genetic divergence among germplasm line for yield and its component traits. Experimental material for the study consisted of 43 genotypes including three checks i.e. Kashi Aman, Kashi Amul and Pusa Upkar. The experiment was conducted in Augmented Block Design. Observations were recorded on 17 quantitative and 5 qualitative traits viz., Days to 50% flowering, Plant hight (cm.) Leaf area (cm2 ), Leaf petiole length (cm), No. of primary branches, Number of flower per clusters, Number of fruits per clusters, Days to 1st harvesting, Average fruit weight at marketable stage (g), Total number of fruits at marketable stage, Polar diameter (cm), Equatorial diameter (cm), Fruit size (cm2 ), Pericarp thickness (mm), Locules per fruits, TSS (0B), Lycopene (mg/100g), β-carotene (mg/100g), Ascorbic acid (mg/100g), Dry matter content (%), Yield / plant and Total yield (t/ha). Analysis of variance showed that highly significant for all traits in treatments and for block showed non significant except 12 traits which significant. A wide range of variation was estimates in the mean performance of genotypes for all traits select the best genotypes according to Yield per plant were performance Banda Local-2 followed by Sel.-7, S.Naveen, Pusa-120, Kashi Amrit, Kashi Adarsh, EC-538408, EC538441 and LA-1800 were pick out for higher fruit yield to the best check Kashi Aman. The moderate variation phenotypic as well as genotypic coefficients of variation were observed in case of average fruit weight at marketable stage, yield per plant, total yield, plant hight, leaf area, locules /fruit, fruit size, number of primary branches, Total number
