Mustard seed oil

In India, oilseed Brassica are grown over an area of about 6.3 million hectares with an annual production of 7.92 million tones with an average yield of 1304 kg/ha whereas in Rajasthan it was still 1422kg/ha. The severe attack of many diseases not only deteriorates the quality of the seed, but also reduces the oil content considerably. Among the diseases, white rust caused by Albugo candida (Pers. Ex Hook) O. Kuntze, is an important disease of a wide variety of Brassica crops. Its infection causes disfiguring white pustules on leaves, flowers stems and pod leading to yield losses.

Seventy five crosses of Indian mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern & Coss] generated by crossing of fifty lines with five testers in a line x tester mating design, which were used to estimate the standard heterosis potentiality for seed yield, its component traits and oil content. These parents, crosses and checks were sown in randomized complete block design under four environments each replicated thrice at two different locations. Observations were recorded on thirteen different characters.

Rapeseed-mustard accounts for 19.97 per cent of the total oilseeds production in India and it is one of the major contributors to Yellow Revolution. Their yield losses due to Alternaria blight was reported in the range of 10 to 70 per cent variable. The seed quality, seed size, colour and reduction of oil up to 10 per cent and seed germination ability is also adversely affected due to this disease in addition to quantities yield losses.

Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) is the most important and major edible oil seed crop. White rust [Albugo candida (Pers. Ex.Lev.) Kuntze] is the important disease which can cause major yield losses in Indian Mustard. This study shows comparative assessment of white rust disease index (%), white rust disease severity and white rust disease incidence on leaves as well as on the inflorescence in the improved varieties of Indian Mustard.

An experiment was conducted during 2014-2015 to study the oil and fatty acids content in 26 genotypes of Brassica species. Significant differences (p≤0.05) were observed among the genotypes for the oil quality, viz. oil content and fatty acids content. Oil content is in the range of 32.67–39.47%, 37.82–40.56% and 40.35–41.43% in Brassica juncea, Brassica napus and Brassica rapa seeds, respectively. The saturated fatty acid (Palmitic acid) content is in the range of 3.08–3.85, 3.70–5.15, 2.75–3.

Sowing of seeds with seed drill at proper seed rate, depth and covering them with soil is very important. This allows plants to get sufficient sunlight and nutrients from the soil and also saves them from being eaten by birds or being dried up due to exposure to sun. Meanwhile it ensures improved ratio of crop yield with saving in time and labour. Small land holding in Indian farms limits farm mechanization on Indian farms. Conventional methods of seeding will results in low seed placements, less area covered per unit time, physical health issue like back ache etc.

The current investigation aims to determine the phenotypic stability and GxE interaction among the Brassica juncea L. genotypes. Fifteen released genotypes of Brassica juncea L. were evaluated in two different environments and two dates of sowing during Rabi 2014- 2015 and 2015-2016. Analysis of variance indicated that all the genotypes exhibited significant genetic differences except forno. of secondary branches/plant, siliqua length, 1000 seed weight and oil content.
