Fifty wheat lines were evaluated in 2011-2012 wheat season at Regional Wheat Research Centre, Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute Gazipur, Bangladesh under salinity stress condition. Various statistical tools were used in analyzing the data. Genetic variability was found among the evaluated wheat genotypes for all the traits studied. The evaluated lines were grouped into five clusters using cluster analysis ranging from high salt-tolerant to salt-sensitive genotypes. High to intermediate broad-sense heritability for measured traits showed their potential to be utilized under salinity stress for identifying salt- tolerant wheat lines. The traits under this study showed highly significant positive relationship with yield in terms of genotypic and phenotypic correlations. This indicated that all traits were important in influencing grain yield and could be exploited as selection criteria for improving grain yield of wheat under saline conditions. Eight wheat lines were selected as high salinity tolerant genotypes that would further be used in the breeding program to develop saline tolerant wheat varieties.","PeriodicalId":415976,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Research in Crop Science","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122060542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These treatments involved soaking the seeds in 30% H2SO4, vernalization and soaking in water (hydrotreatment). Five polyethene bags were used for each replicate, 16 replicates of 10kg of soil were prepared for the plant according to the treatments and duration placement. Morphometric data such as germination percentage, plant height, stem girth and leaf area were collected and analyzed using mean, variance, standard deviation, variance of the mean, standard error and confidence limit. The results of the analysis showed the various treatments and the duration significance on percentage germination and growth parameters of Abelmoschus esculentus seeds. Data showed the effects of various treatments duration and their significance on percentage germination of Abelmoschus esculentus seeds. The result further showed that the treatment of seeds before cultivation increased the percentage germination in A. esculentus when compared with the control replicate. It was also revealed that the height readings of different treatment sources and treatment durations did significantly affect the height of A. esculentus. It was also observed that leaf Area and stem girth significantly increased in different treatment methods and durations as seen in treatment of A. esculentus respectively. This research showed that seed treatment resulted in early germination and high growth rate; hence seed treatment with either soaking in 30% sulphuric acid, vernalization or soaking in water should be used for enhancing emergence and better seedling growth in Abelmoschus esculentus but attention should be paid to the duration of exposure of seed to these treatments.","PeriodicalId":415976,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Research in Crop Science","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130282252","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study assessed the effects of organically managed reduced tillage and conventional tillage on dynamic soil properties and winter triticale performance. Organic farm that has been treated with three different tillage systems for six consecutive years was used in this study at Drovendaal organic facility of Wageningen University and Research. The tillage systems included two reduced tillage NIT at 10 cm and ECO up to 20 cm deep and CON at a depth of 30 cm. The parameters evaluated are soil physico-chemical properties, leaf area index (LAI), plant dry matter, ear number per area, plant height and chlorophyll content (SPAD) at ear formation stage . Use of NIT led to higher SOM and N-NO3 of 13.03 mg kg-1 at 0-10 cm soil depth. Also, shallow soil depths had lower bulk density and penetration resistance compared to deeper depths but NIT had higher penetration resistance in all soil depths compared to ECO and CON. Based on crop performance, ECO and CON revealed a better crop performance than NIT. Therefore, ECO having intermediate potentials in soil properties and crop performance could be the right tillage system for organic crop production compared to NIT and CON. Moreover, ECO will be a suitable tillage system that improves soil fertility, mitigates greenhouse gases and at the same time influence high crop performance.","PeriodicalId":415976,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Research in Crop Science","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121579401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

From July 13 to November 2013, the field experiment was conducted on the experimental farm of the College of Agricultural Studies, Sudan University of Science and Technology, Shambat. A randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications was employed in this investigation. The seventeen sesame genotypes had their nine growths and yield parameters assessed, the number of branches, the height of the first capsules, the number of capsules per plant, and the weight of 1000 seeds all showed a highly significant difference. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (p≥0.05). The plant's height and days to 50% flowering were counted. The number of capsules per plant and seed weight showed the largest genotypic and phenotypic variance. The heritability value was greater when 1000 seeds were used. On the other hand, plant height had the lowest rating. The Highland genotype had the maximum yield (0.2506 ton/ha). Seed yield (ton/ha) was found to be highly associated with seed output per plant, capsule number per plant, and stem diameter. However, there was a non-significant, inverse relationship between height to first capsule and days to flowering. Molecular DNA marker (RAPD) analysis revealed that three RAPD primers chosen for molecular analysis had 170 bands, 130 of which were polymorphic (76.47%). The results based on high genetic variation for agro-morphological traits and polymorphism at DNA level indicating that, the techniques was efficient in determining diversity among sesame genotypes and this information will be useful for collection, conversation and breeding program in the future.","PeriodicalId":415976,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Research in Crop Science","volume":"94 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121473777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
