| dc.description.abstract | An Investigation was carried out with three experiments for studying the influence of plant population and nutrient management on seed yield and quality of baby corn hybrid at Water and Land Use Management Institute (WALMI) farm, Dharwad, during Kharif 2010. Influence of sieve size grading on seed quality and storage on specialty corn were studied at Seed Quality and Research Laboratory of National Seed Project (crops), University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad. Significantly higher seed yield (48.22 q ha-1) was recorded with 200:100:80 kg NPK ha-1 compared to 150:75:37.50 kg NPK ha-1 (41.36 q ha-1). Significantly higher seed yield (48.08 q ha-1) was recorded with spacing of 60 x 25 cm compared to spacing of 60 x 10 cm (38.71 q ha-1). Among interaction application of 200:100:80 kg NPK per ha with spacing of 60 x 25 cm recorded significantly higher seed yield (51.33 q ha-1). Among four genotypes significantly higher seed recovery (95.38 %) and germination (99.32 %) were recorded with the genotype PEHM-2. Significantly higher seed recovery (95.48 %) was recorded in lower sieve size with Top: 10.50 mm X Bottom 3.50 mm. whereas higher germination (99.34 %) was recorded with higher sieve size Top: 10.50 mm X Bottom 6.00 mm. The seeds of PEHM-2 genotype recorded significantly higher germination (88.94 %) compared to the rest of the genotype studied. Among four treatments T3 (Thiram @ 2.5 g kg-1 seed + Malathion @ 2 g kg-1 seed) recorded significantly higher germination (90.13 %) at the end of twelth month of storage period as compared to the rest of the treatments. Higher seed germination was recorded with seeds stored in polythene bag (87.58 %) as compared to cloth bag (85.81 %) at the end of twelve months of storage period. | en_US |
