Combining Ability Studies for Yield, Yield Components and Nutritional Traits in Greengram (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek)

TL;DR: The genetic potential of present day cultivars of mungbean can be improved by employing diverse paents in hybridization programme and the combining ability analysis serves as an efficient tool for selection of desirable parents for hybridization and also aids in screening of promising crosses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Studies on Storability of Elite Hybrids of Sunflower

TL;DR: The crop is well adopted because of attributes such as short duration, photoperiod insensitivity, adoptability to wide range of soil and climatic conditions, drought tolerance, higher seed multiplication ratio and high percentage of edible oil.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Variability Analysis in Ashwagandha [Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal]

TL;DR: Ashwagandha [Withania somnifera (L.) Dunal] generally known as Indian ginseng is likewise named poison gooseberry or winter cherry and is native of North-western and Central India as well as the Mediterranean region of North Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intercropping in cabbage (Brassica Oleracea L.var. capitata f.) for growth, yield, quality and sustainable soil health under foothills of Eastern himalayan region

TL;DR: Inclusion of garden pea in cabbage inter rows may be adopted by cabbage growers of foothills of eastern Himalayan region of West Bengal for additional income and soil enrichment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nature of Genetic Variability for Yield and Drought Tolerance Related Physiological Traits in Clusterbean [Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.)]

TL;DR: Although, clusterbean is an important drought tolerant crop but very meager information is available on the physiology of this crop, it is of paramount importance to study the genetics of drought tolerance related traits and develop tolerant genotypes based on sound physiological mechanisms in clusterbean.

Salinity induced oxidative stress and antioxidant system in salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive cultivars of rice Oryza sativa L

TL;DR: It is inferred that leaves of salt-tolerant cultivars tend to attain greater capacity to perform reactions of antioxidative pathway under saline conditions to combat salinity-induced oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbial properties of soils as affected by cropping and nutrient management practices in several long-term manurial experiments in the semi-arid tropics of India

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of longterm cropping, fertilization, manuring and their integration on microbial community were studied in soil samples from five long-term fertilizer experiments under various rainfed production systems in the semi-arid tropics of India.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus levels due to deforestation and cultivation: A case study in Simlipal National Park, India

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that deforestation and cultivation result in statistically significant reduction in organic C, total N and C:N ratios but no significant changes in total and available P levels; C:P and N:P ratios also reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arsenic-tolerant, arsenite-oxidising bacterial strains in the contaminated soils of West Bengal, India

TL;DR: This study presents the first correlation regarding the presence of the aoxB gene and As(III) oxidation ability in Geobacillus stearothermophilus, and identifies four strains as superior As-oxidisers.

Genetic Variability Studies for Qualitative and Quantitative traits in Popular Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Hybrids of India

TL;DR: The characters viz., number of filled grains per panicle and water uptake exhibited high heritability coupled with high genetic advance indicating that simple selection could be effective for improving these characters.
