dc.description.abstractThe present investigation entitled “Screening of papaya genotypes under waterlogging condition and its management” was carried out during 2021-2022 in HI-tech horticulture unit, Department of Horticulture, Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University, Pusa, Samastipur (Bihar). The research work was carried out with two experiments, first experiment was laid out in Two-factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 9 different types of treatment viz., Control( without waterlogging) + Red lady, Submergence 10 cm above soil surface + Red Lady, Submergence 15 cm above soil surface + Red Lady, Control( without waterlogging) + Pusa Delicious, Submergence 10 cm above soil surface + Pusa Delicious, Submergence 15 cm above soil surface + Pusa Delicious, Control( without waterlogging) + Local Collection 1, Submergence 10 cm above soil surface + Local Collection 1, Submergence 15 cm above soil surface + Local Collection 1 which were replicated three times. The results of the investigation revealed that, among the different genotypes used Pusa Delicious gave better performance in different levels of waterlogged condition on growth and physiological parameters. With reference to different genotypes, Pusa Delicious recorded maximum plant height (78.23cm), relative growth rate (0.04), shoot length (64.62cm), chlorophyll index (44.57), relative water content (89.31%), fresh weight of shoot (187.57g), fresh weight of root (43.40g), dry weight of shoot (22.53g), dry weight of root (8.31g), number of leaves (8.11), leaf area (2.07m2), root length (23.63 cm), root to shoot ratio (0.31), survival (66.66%), flood tolerance potential (1) and lowest leaf senescence (13.63 %). Second was laid out in Three-factors Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 12 different types of treatment viz., Submergence 10 cm above soil surface +Red Lady + 5 MgO₂, Submergence 10 cm above soil surface + Red Lady +10g MgO₂, Submergence 15 cm above soil surface + Red Lady + 5g MgO₂, Submergence 15 cm above soil surface + Red Lady +10g MgO₂, Submergence 10 cm above soil surface+ Pusa Delicious + 5g MgO₂, Submergence 10 cm above soil surface + Pusa Delicious + 10g MgO₂, Submergence 15 cm above soil surface + Pusa Delicious + 5g MgO₂, Submergence 15 cm above soil surface +, Pusa Delicious + 10g MgO₂, Submergence 10 cm above soil surface + Local Collection 1 + 5g MgO₂, Submergence 10 cm above soil surface + Local Collection 1+10g MgO₂, Submergence 15 cm above soil surface + Local Collection 1 + 5g MgO₂, Submergence 15 cm above soil surface+ Local Collection 1+ 10g MgO₂. The results of the investigation showed that, among the different concentration of chemicals ( 5g and 10 g MgO₂), 10 g gave better performance under waterlogged condition on growth and physiological parameters of three genotypes. With refers to different treatment, submergence 10 cm above soil surface + Pusa Delicious + 10g MgO₂ recorded the maximum plant height (85.25cm), relative growth rate (0.06), shoot length (70.24 cm), chlorophyll index (49.70), relative water content (93.40%), fresh weight of shoot (198.74g), fresh weight of root (50.49 g), dry weight of shoot (26.42 g), dry weight of root (11.50 g), number of leaves (10.32), leaf area (2.41m2), root length (32.19cm), root to shoot ratio(0.41), survival percentage (66.66%), flood tolerance potential (1) and lowest leaf senescence (-3.38 %)en_US
