Genetic Variability of Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) for Water Logging and Salinity Tolerance under in vitro and in vivo Conditions
Pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) genotypes acquired from diverse sources, were screened for water logging and salinity tolerance under laboratory and field conditions. Analysis of variance revealed significant ...
Influence of plant growth retardants on growth, seed yield and quality in onion (Allium cepa) cv. Pusa Riddhi
A field experiment was conducted at New Delhi during rabi 2013-14 and 2014-15 to evaluate the effect of growth retardants on seed scape height, seed yield and quality attributes in onion (Allium cepa L.) cv. Pusa Riddhi.The ...
Nectarivore-aided Hybridization and its Exploitation for Productivity Enhancement in Pigeonpea
A record of out-crossing in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millsp.) from 32 locations indicated a large variation within and across 12 countries of Asia, Africa, and Americas. Pigeonpea breeders have exploited the natural ...
Development of new early maturing cytoplasmic genetic male sterile lines in pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan (L.) Millspaugh)
Sufficient level of heterosis and out crossing (>70%) in pigeonpea provides opportunity for the development of hybrid varieties. Earlier, GMS based hybrids were developed by different research institutes. However, due to ...
Natural chemical degradation of soils in the Indian semi-arid tropics and remedial measures
Most published research on soil degradation in general
emphasizes the role of anthropogenic factors.
Even among the natural soil degradation processes the
regressive pedogenic processes that lead to the formation
of CaCO3 ...
Effects of conservation agriculture on crop productivity and water-use efficiency under an irrigated pigeonpea – wheat cropping system in the western Indo-Gangetic Plains
In search of a suitable resource conservation technology under pigeonpea (Cajanus cajan L.)–wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) system in the Indo-Gangetic Plains, the effects of conservation agriculture (CA) on crop productivity ...
