K. SinghOnion is one of the most important vegetable crops grown in India, having both the food and medicinal values. Due to its ability to flavour a variety of vegetable preparations, it is a necessary component of every kitchen and is referred to as the "Queen of the Kitchen". The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design with three replications at Vegetable Research Farm of BUAT, Banda, during the Kharif season of 2022. The holistic aim of this experiment was to search out the most suitable variety of Kharif onion that could easily produce the optimum yield with better profitability and also to standardize appropriate organic and inorganic nutrient management techniques that suit well to the crops and variety in the region. The experiment consisted of one-factor treatments. Therefore, a total of 09 treatments combination arrived to test, and every treatments were replicated thrice in an experimental unit i.e., T1- Farmer practice (NPKS): 70-40-40-0 kg/ha, T2- NPKS:100- 50-50-30 kg/ha, T3- NPKS: 120-50-50-40 kg/ha, T4- NPKS: 140-50-60-50 kg/ha, T5- NPKS: 150-50-60-70 kg/ha, T6- 20 tons enriched FYM, T7- 75% RDN + 5 tons enriched FYM, T8- 50 % RDN + 10 tons enriched FYM, T9- 25 % RDN + 15 tons enriched FYM and they were applied with an objective to study the effect of organic and inorganic nutrients on growth, yield, quality and economics of kharif onion. In general, the weather condition was quite conducive resulting in harnessing good crop yields during the year of field experimentation. The soil of the experimental field was silt clay loam in texture having moderate basicity (pH-8.2, EC-0.31) and poor fertility. Overall, the soil holds organic carbon of 0.38 %, available nitrogen of 254 kgha-1 , available phosphorus of 17.3 kgha-1 , potassium of 259.3 kg ha-1 and Sulphur of 13.96, respectively. On the basis of result obtained and summarized from the present study, it can be concluded that all the observations taken for kharif onion were found to be superior with the application of organic and inorganic nutrients. In the study, it was observed that the application of T9-25 % RDN + 15 tons enriched FYM increased all growth and yield parameters such as plant height (cm), number leaves (cm), neck thickness (cm), bolting percentage, days to maturity (60-70%) neck fall followed by T7- 75% RDN + 15 tons enriched FYM and T8- 50% RDN + 10 tons enriched FYM. While the maximum B: C was recorded under T5-NPKS: 150- 50-60-70 kg/ha followed by T5- NPKS: 150-50-50-30 kg/ha, T4- NPKS: 140-50-60-50 kg/ha and T8-50% RDN + 10 tons enriched FYM. There for among all the combinations of organic and inorganic nutrients applied 25 % RDN + 15 tons enriched FYM was found significantly most effective in increasing the yield and yield attributing traits. Hence, application of T9-25 % RDN + 15 tons enriched FYM recorded higher yield (232.22 q/ha) and excellent quality bulbs may be suggested for cultivation in kharif onion as well as the maximum net return per hectare but maximum B: C ratio observed in Treatment T5- NPKS: 150-50-50-30 kg/ha due to low cost of cultivation. However, we can see the soil status in treatment T9-25 % RDN + 15 tons enriched FYM, that is significantly improve the soil health and fertility under Bundelkhand region.ThesisItem Open Access HALF DIALLEL ANALYSIS FOR FRUIT YIELD AND ITS COMPONENTS IN BRINJAL (SOLANUM MELONGENA L.)(DEPARTMENT OF VEGETABLE SCIENCE COLLEGE OF HORTICULTURE BANDA UNIVERSITY OF AGRICULTURE & TECHNOLOGY, BANDA- 210001, UTTAR PRADESH,INDIA, 2023-07-21) PRASHANT KUMAR TRIPATHI; Akhilesh Chandra MishraThesisItem Open Access EVALUATION OF CLUSTER BEAN [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L.] GENOTYPES FOR GROWTH, POD YIELD AND QUALITY ATTRIBUTES(Banda University of Agriculture & Technology, Banda-210001, Uttar Pradesh, India, 2022-09-08) Nayak, Priyanka; Dwivedi, Satya VartThesisItem Open Access STUDY OF ORGANIC AND INORGANIC NUTRIENTS EFFECT ON GROWTH AND PRODUCTIVITY OF GARDEN PEA (Pisum sativum L. var. hortense)(Banda University of Agriculture & Technology, Banda-210001,Uttar Pradesh, India, 2022-08-03) KUMAR, RAHUL; Soni, ShwetaAn investigation was carried out at Vegetable research farm of Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda U.P. on the prescribed topic “Study of organic and inorganic nutrients effect on growth and productivity of garden pea (Pisum sativum L. var. hortense)” during the Rabi season 2021-22. The treatments involved in the study were 09 in numbers i.e. T1 = NPK (30:80:60) , T2 = Farmyard manure @ 5 t ha-1 , T3 = Vermicompost @ 3 t ha-1 , T4 = 50% NPK (15:40:30) + 50% FYM @ 2.5 t ha-1 , T5 = 50% NPK (15:40:30) + 50% Vermicompost @ 1.5 t ha1 , T6 = 50% FYM @2.5 t ha-1 + 50% Vermicompost @1.5 t ha-1 , T7 = 50% NPK (15:40:30) + 100% FYM @ 5 t ha-1 , T8 = 50% NPK (15:40:30) + 100 % Vermicompost @ 3 t ha-1 , T9 = 50 % NPK (15:40:30) + 50% Vermicompost @ 1.5 t ha-1 + 50% FYM @ 2.5 t ha-1 and they were applied with an objective to study the effect of organic and inorganic nutrients on growth, yield, quality and economics of garden pea. On the basis of result obtained and summarized from the present study, it can be concluded that all the observations taken for garden pea were found to be superior with the application of organic and inorganic nutrients. In the study, it was observed that the application of 50 % NPK (15:40:30) + 100 % Vermicompost @ 3 t ha-1 increased all growth and quality parameters [i.e. plant height (cm), leaf area (cm2 ), days to first flowering, days taken to 50 % flowering and protein content] followed by T9 and T7.While maximum yield attributes i.e. [no. of pods per plant, no. of seeds per pod, pod yield q/ha] and highest B:C ratio was recorded under 50 % NPK (15:40:30) + 50 % Vermicompost @ 1.5 t ha -1 50 % + FYM @ 2.5 t ha-1 followed by T8 and T7. Therefore among all the combinations of organic and inorganic nutrients applied 50 % NPK (15:40:30) + 50 % Vermicompost @ 1.5 t ha -1 50 % + FYM @ 2.5 t ha-1 was found significantly most effective in increasing the yield and yield attributing traits. Hence, application of 50 % NPK (15:40:30) + 50 % Vermicompost @ 1.5 t ha -1 50 % + FYM @ 2.5 t ha-1 may be suggested in garden Pea in order to get higher yield of good quality pods as well as the maximum net return per hectare and B:C ratio under Bundelkhand region.ThesisItem Open Access "Studies on genetic variability in Vegetable Pea [Pisum sativum var. hortense. L.] genotypes in Bundelkhand region,"(Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, 2022-09-12) Mishra, Rudra Pratap; Kumar, SunilThe current study, titled "Studies on genetic variability in Vegetable Pea [Pisum sativum var. hortense. L.] genotypes in Bundelkhand region," was carried out during the Rabi (October-February) season of 2021 at the Vegetable Research Farm of Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda, Uttar-Pradesh. The experiment was laid out by Randomized Complete Block Design (RBD) with three replications and the experimental material consisted of 25 genotypes of garden pea obtained from various places in India. The principal objectives of the investigation were to study the genetic variability, character association, path analysis, and divergence among growth, yield, and quality parameters in garden pea genotypes. Five plants per treatment were selected randomly and tagged. Observations were recorded on selected tagged plants for different characters in each replication. The mean value of the data obtained from five plants in each treatment was worked out to represent a particular collection for a particular character. The data recorded on five plants per treatment was averaged and subjected to statistical analysis. The estimates of the mean sum of squares due to genotypes were highly significant for all the characters showing the existence of genetic variation in the source material. For the majority of the quantitative characteristics and qualitative traits, high phenotypic and genotypic coefficients of variation were observed. Most of the traits showed high heritability together with high genetic advance. Based on the mean performance the genotypes/variety Narendra Matar-2, VVP-1, JVP-1, and JVP-2 had the highest yield., The variety VVP-1 has good plant height, high seed, and pod weight. The varieties JVP-1 and Kashi Nandini have taken fewer days to maturity and also yielded well so these varieties can be also recommended for cultivation in the Bundelkhand region. A significant positive correlation coefficient of pod yield per plant was observed with days to 50% flowering. Yield per plant showed a positive association with all the characters except shelling %, TSS, total sugars, and protein content. Path coefficient analysis of different characteristics contributing towards pod yield per plant showed that days to 50% flowering had the highest positive direct effect followed by days taken for first pod formation, shelling%, protein content, TSS,100 seed weight, pod length, and average pod weight. Days to 50% flowering has a high positive direct effect along with a positive significant correlation with pod yield per plant hence it can be directly selected and simultaneously the characters which show high positive indirect effects can also be selected for the improvement of yield. For the divergence study, 25 genotypes were grouped into 6 clusters using Tocher's method. Of the 6 clusters, cluster V was the largest, comprising 8 genotypes followed by cluster I, cluster III, cluster IV, cluster II and cluster VI with one genotype only. Based on distances between clusters, i.e., inter-cluster distances, the maximum divergence was observed between cluster III and cluster VI. Maximum inter-cluster D2 values between the clusters indicated that the genotypes included in these clusters can be used as a parent in the hybridization program to get higher heterotic hybrids from the segregating population. The intra-cluster D2 values observed were 175.62 for cluster I and 214.35 for Cluster III. Clusters II, VI, V, and IV had no intra-cluster distances. Maximum intra-cluster distance indicates that the genotypes are very diverse. TSS contributed the maximum to the genetic diversity among the characters followed by plant height, days to first pod formation, protein content, total sugar, number of seeds per pod, yield in tones/h, average pod weight, days to first pod picking, shelling%, pod length, yield per plant, yield per plot, days to 50% flowering, days to first flower emergence and 100 seed weight.ThesisItem Open Access Studies on Genetic Variability in Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graecum L.)(Banda University of Agriculture & Technology, Banda-210001, Uttar Pradesh, India, 2022-08-06) Upadhyay, ArchanaAn investigation was carried out at Vegetable research farm of Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda U.P. on the prescribed topic “Studies on genetic variability in fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graecum L.).”during the Rabi season 2021-22. The comprehensive aim of experiment was to asses the variability present among fenugreek genotypes and identify the traits which are positively associated to seed yield and find out most diverse and suitable parents for crossing programme. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. The treatments involved in the study were 20 in numbers. On the basis of result obtained from the present investigation, it can be concluded that considerable significant amount of variability was present among the characters under study .Phenotypic Coefficient of Variation (PCV) was higher than Genotypic Coefficient of Variation (GCV). High Genotypic Coefficient of variation (GCV) and Phenotypic Coefficient of Variation (PCV) were found high for days to 50 % flowering (21.47 and 22.10), total sugar content (29.93 and 30.64) and total tannin content (72.49 and 72.59). High estimates of heritability in broad sense coupled with high genetic advance as percent of mean were found for days to 50% flowering (94.40 and 42.96), branches per plant (86.90 and 31.94), test weight (86.10 and 24.33), seed yield per plot (85.21 and 31.55), total sugar content (95.41 and 60.25) and total tannin content (99.72 and 149.72).. Plant height (0.490**), no of pods per plant (0.603**), pod length (0.385**) and test weight (0.590**) showed positive correlation with seed yield per plot at both genotypic and phenotypic level. Evaluation of path coefficient revealed that plant height (1.012**) and test weight (1.336**) had highest direct positive effect on seed yield per plot. In Genetic divergence analysis, No of pods per plant contributed to maximum divergence and on the basis of inter cluster distance it is also concluded that crossing between cluster I and cluster V would give better seggregants with respect to gene combinations.
