Evaluation of Hybrid and OPV Maize Varieties for Grain Yield and Agronomic Attributes under Farmer's Field Conditions at Dukuchhap / Nepali, M.B. in Nepal Agriculture Research Journal, Vol. 9 (2009)

Title : Evaluation of Hybrid and OPV Maize Varieties for Grain Yield and Agronomic Attributes under Farmer's Field Conditions at Dukuchhap Material Type: printed text Authors: Nepali, M.B., Author Publication Date: 2009 Article on page: 17-20 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Hybrid, maize, OPV, yield attributes Abstract: Field experiments were conducted during two consecutive years 2006 and
2007 in full season of maize (May-Sep) at Dukuchhap, Lalitpur to find out
impact of growing hybrid and OPV maize in different rows combinations
with respect to their pure stands in same environment of growing and to sort
out non-lodging maize varieties. The experiments consisted of an open
pollinated variety (OPV) 'Deuti' and hybrid 'Gaurab' in different row
combinations (50% hybrid + 50% OPV, 75% hybrid + 25% OPV, 75% OPV
+ 25% hybrid plus their pure stands). The results showed that Gaurab
(yellow, flint type) and Deuti (white, semi- flint type, selected from
CIMMYT's material ZM 621) did not vary significantly in grain yield and
yield components. There was no effect of mixed row culture between the
OPV and hybrid for grain yield and yield attributes. A bivariate correlation
coefficient between agronomic traits and ear traits indicated that there was a
positive relation among these traits. However, a positive and highly
significant (r = 0.766**) relationship between ear fill and ear length was
observed while a very weak relation (r = 0.096*) between grain weight/ear
and ear height was also noticed suggesting taller the ear height lower the
grain yield/ear and vice versa. The findings of the study support that plant
height and ear height were weakly related with other ear traits; nevertheless,
these were highly related to grain weight/per plant. To cope with stalk
lodging problem and to attain higher grain yield these varieties are equally potential and recommended to grow under Dukuchhap conditions.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=3

Amataya, Author ; Sharma, B, Author ; Thakur, N.S., Author ; Gauchan, D., Author Pagination: 235-245 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Hybrid, vegetable, production, plastic tunnel Abstract: Vegetable production and marketing was started long ago in Nepal. In the beginning, vegetable production and marketing was in limited area. The objective of the study was to review the status of hybrid vegetable production in Nepal. The methodology of the study was to collect primary and secondary data. Primary data was collected from the 10 percent commercial vegetable growers in Panchkhal of Kavre and Hemja of Kaski district. Farmers cultivated different types of crops in their patch of land in order to get better production in different types of cropping pattern in low land…………………

Title : Evaluation of Tomato Inbred Lines for the Production of Fl Hybrids Material Type: printed text Authors: Regmi, H.N., Author ; Budathoki, K, Author ; N G Pradhan, Author Pagination: 401-404 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: hybrid, tomato, inbred lines Abstract: It has been estimated that hybrid seed of vegetable crops worth of million of Rupees is
imported every year to Nepal from various countries. These imported hybrid seeds are too
expensive and are affordable only to few resource rich famzers. Additionally the supply of
these hybrids seeds is irregular and quality is questionable which have affected productivity,
production, quality and income of farmers. In view of these problems hybrid seed production
of tomato was initiated at Horticulture Research Division Klwmaltar, during 2001, 2002 and
2003. A total of 18 inbred lines were characterized and evaluated. Variation infntit size (20
gm to 100 gm), fntit shape (round to oblong), growth habit (determinate and indeterminate),
yield potelltial of these inbreeds are recorded. Also different crosses were made from these
inbred lines. A total of 35 combinations were made during last three years. These F1 hybrid.
lines had fruit size ranged from 30 gm to BO·gm. Tomato growers from Kathmandu, i.Alitpur,
Bhaktapurand Kavre Districts evaluated these FJ hybrid lines at HRD, Khumal and selected
some of F1 lines on the basis offntit size, wilt tolerance andfntit shape.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=677 Evaluation of Tomato Inbred Lines for the Production of Fl Hybrids [printed text] / Regmi, H.N., Author ; Budathoki, K, Author ; N G Pradhan, Author . - [s.d.] . - 401-404 p.

[article]
Title : Plant Spacing: A Key Husbandry Practice for Rainy Season Cabbage Production Material Type: printed text Authors: Khatiwada, P.P., Author Publication Date: 2000 Article on page: 48-55 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Cabbage, hybrid, plant spacing, rainy season Abstract: A field experiment was accomplished to establish appropriate plant spacing for summer season
cabbage production in the rain fed condition of the high hills of eastern Nepal. The experiment
was conducted during the summer of 1997, 1998 and 1999. Five different plant spacings (45-
60-cm, 45- 50-cm, 45- 40-cm, 45- 30-cm and 45- 20-cm) and two varieties, Green Stone
and Green Coronet were tested. The interactive effect between variety and spacing was nonsignificant.
However, among the tested spacings, head yields were statistically higher at 45- 30-
cm and 45- 20-cm plant spacings. There was a positive linear correlation between closer plant
spacing and cabbage head yield. The number of unmarketable heads and the lowest head
compactness was recorded in 45- 20-cm spacing. Spacing of 45- 30-cm was found more
economical. Plant population can be maintained as high as 74,074 number ha-1 by decreasing the
spacing from 75- 60-cm to 45- 30-cm for the rainy season cabbage cultivation in high hills. By
using this spacing, as high as 35 t ha-1 cabbage head can be produced in the rainfed condition of
the high hills.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=93
