Title : Physico-morphological evaluation of Banana (Musa sp.) genotypes at Nepalgunj Material Type: printed text Authors: S Ahamad, Author ; R.M K.C, Author Pagination: 138-140 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Banana, banana genotypes, germplasm, variety evaluation Abstract: An experiment was conducted at RARS, Khajura during 2058-2063 to evaluate the physico- morphological characters and yields of different cultivars. The experiment was laid out in RCBD with three replications. Spacing was maintained in 2 x 1.5 meters, in which uniform size of suckers (40-45 cm height) was planted and physico-morphological characters were evaluated. Highest pseudo-stem length was recorded for Khajura Malbhog. Maximum girth was recorded for Robasta and minimum for Harichal………..

Title : Use of Ethephone and Indigenous Plant Materials in ripening Banana in Winter Material Type: printed text Authors: K.C, Ram Bahadur, Author ; Durga M. Gautam, Author ; Sunder Tiwari, Author Publication Date: 2009 Article on page: 102-105 p General note: Research note Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Banana, ethephone, plant materials, ripening, shelf-life Abstract: Post-harvest handling of banana is a crucial activity to get good quality fruit
to the consumers. A post-harvest study on ripening of banana was carried out
at Regional Agriculture Research Station, Khajura during winter season of
2005 to find out the effect of different materials in ripening of banana and
study about shelf-life period. Dipping fruits in Kripone 2.56 ml per liter of
water (ethephone 1000 ppm) for five minutes was found effective for banana
ripening. Those fruits treated with ethephone 1000 ppm started to soften in
three days and became ready to consume in five days with shelf-life of eight
days. Fruits treated with 'Asuro' (Adhatoda vesica) started to become soft in
five days where as fruits treated with 'Koiralo' (Bahunia veriagata) became
soft in four days. By using these indigenous plant materials, we can prolong
shelf-life of fruit by 2-3 days more than the Kripone-treated fruits. Use of
ripe banana fruit also found effective to hasten ripening the banana with
excellent taste. However, the shelf-life was relatively short (8 days). It is
difficult to ripen the banana in winter without using any ripening materials.
In untreated control, only 33% fruits started to become soft after 7-9 days of
storage and were ready to consume in nine days. Rest 66% fruits were
remain as such up to 11 days then after fruit started uneven softening ie some
portion became soft and other portion remained hard. After 14 days fruits
became black without softening and got spoiled. Overall percent weight loss
was found 6.0 to 10.7 from initial to end of shelf-life period.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=15
