The results indicated that for eggplant improvement, additive variation is of great importance and makes it possible to successfully select better individuals in segregating populations, since the selective gains will depend only on gametic variation. For this reason, backcross, pedigree, single-seed descent or gametic selection methods are recommended for advancing the segregating populations.

Seed weight is a complex yield-related trait with a lot of quantitative trait loci (QTL) reported through linkage mapping studies. Integration of QTL from linkage mapping into breeding program is challenging due to numerous limitations, therefore, Genome-wide association study (GWAS) provides more precise location of QTL due to higher resolution and diverse genetic diversity in un-related individuals.

Seed and accessibility constraints are core features to enable highly accurate sRNA target screens based on RNA-RNA interaction prediction. Currently, available tools provide different (sets of) constraints and default parameter sets. Thus, it is hard to impossible for users to estimate the influence of individual restrictions on the prediction results.

The effect of growth regulator on growth and flowering of seed guar cultivars viz., HG 365 and HG 563 was analysed under Mahanandi conditions. The highest nitrate reductase activity, crude protein and gum content was recorded by HG 365 cultivar whereas the growth regulators found maximum in nitrate reductase activity and crude protein was recorded by the application of CCC at 1500 ppm which was on par with CCC 1000 ppm.

The objective of study was to develop high yielding (>20quintals/hectare) and high ginning out turn per cent (>35) cultures/ varieties. Out of 19 advance generation, three advance generation individual populations RS875xSA524 P12, F1861xSA668 P15, RS875xSA524 P4 had significantly higher seed cotton yield in comparison to both the check varieties H1226 (1717.37±292.3) and (F1861 1751.09 ±292.3) and possessed GOT% of 40.6, 38.5 and 39.0 and lint yield 935.6, 848.0 and772.4kg/ hectare, respectively.

Field experiment on efficacy of biocontrol agents for the management of rice root knot nematode Meloidogyen graminicola in paddy nursery and field were conducted during the samba season (2014-15) with rice variety TRY 3. The results revealed that seed treatment (10g/kg of seeds) along with soil application (@2.5kg/ha) of Pseudomonas fluorescens were found to inhibit the nematode population and increase the plant biomass followed by individual application compared to untreated control.

Morinda citrifolia Linn. belongs to family Rubiaceae, also called as „noni‟ is an evergreen shrub that originated in Southeast Asia and is being used from many centuries as traditional medicine. Various communities throughout the world consume the fruit and leaves of this traditional medicinal plant for its various therapeutic properties. M. citrifolia parts including fruits, seeds, barks, leaves, and flowers are utilized on their own for individual nutritional and therapeutical values, however, the fruit is considered to contain the most valuable chemical compounds.

Small tractor operated seed planter with battery drive consists of a frame, furrow openers, individual seed boxes and battery drive, vertical rotor type seed metering mechanism, push button switch, and speed regulator. Seed metering mechanism gets a drive from the dc motor with aids of chain and sprocket arrangement instead of from ground wheel. As per the design calculations, the width of seed planter was 1.25 m. Shoe type furrow openers were selected to open the furrow. No. of furrow openers and row to row spacing was 5no.s and 25 cm respectively.

Rhizoctonia solani causing sheath blight of rice is reported to survive through soil and collateral hosts. Although it infects seed in field, role of seed-borne inoculum in disease development is not properly understood. However, only little information is available on the role of seed-borne inoculum in disease development in the field (Roy, 1989; Acharya and Gupta, 1996; Silvalingam et al., 2006). During the present investigation seed samples of two varieties were collected from healthy seeds (i.e. seeds harvested from healthy plant panicles) and diseased seeds (i.e.

Gamma radiation is the most commonly used mutagen in plants as it causes a high frequency of induced mutations. It can be used to overcome the difficulties in papaya breeding to get true to type plantlets especially in dioecious varieties. An optimum dose is highly desired to produce the high frequency of mutations with minimum killing of treated individuals. Therefore, the present investigation was undertaken to determine the LD50 of gamma rays and effect of different dosages of gamma rays on morphological, physiochemical, biochemical parameters of papaya.

Plants are constantly exposed to biotic stresses, which cause changes in plant metabolism including physiological damages, leading to crop productivity losses. This study was conducted to investigate bio-fertilizer applications (i.e., phosphorein, microbein, and combination of them at a ratio of 1:1 for seed before sowing) influences on two varieties (i.e., Giza 429 and Giza 40) of Vicia faba (L.) plant performances on borne diseasesinfected soil. Growth, yield and its quality, physio-biochemical attributes, nutrient contents and disease assessment were investigated.

Groundnut contributes 40% of the total oil seeds production in the country. Groundnut is a rainfed crop in kharif season with least productivity. Hence an attempt was made for improving the abiotic stress resistance of plants through seed bacterization with biological agents. The present study was undertaken to examine the impact of bacterization of Rhizobium and Methylobacterium radiotolerans to enhance groundnut germination rate and vigour index.
