Evaluation of finger millet genotypes for river basin area of mid-western hills of Nepal / K.R Pokhrel
Title : Evaluation of finger millet genotypes for river basin area of mid-western hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: K.R Pokhrel, Editor ; Dhakal, J.P. ; T. B. Ghimire, Author ; A Pokharel, Author ; Pokharel, B.B., Author Pagination: 179-183 p. Keywords: On station trial ; farmers field trials mother genotypes river basin area Abstract: Finger millet( Elusinecoracana) is a fourth most important food crop of Nepal occupying
area of2,99,523 hectare, with the production and productivity of3,02,691 metric tons and
1.12 metric tons/ ha. respectively. Limited availability of improved varieties is one of the
prime reason for low average productivity of finger millet in Nepal. With the view to
identify superior genotypes for river basin areas of mid-western hill, various genotypes
obtained from Hill Crop Research Program. Kavre, Dolakba, were tested at Agriculture
Research Station, Dasarathpur,Surkhet and its outreach sites, during 2011 and 2012. In on
station trial the genotypes were highly significant for days to SO% panicle emergence and
days to 75% maturity. Significant difference was also observed for grain yield, number of
finger per plant, and lodging, while genotypes were significantly not different for straw
yield, plant height, and thousand seed weight. Based on the combined result of2011 and
2012, genotype ACC#2827-1 (2361 Kglha.) was found top grain yielder followed by
ACC#2324-1(2044Kglha.) and Local Check (1553Kg/ha.). In farmers' field and mother
trials the genotypes were highly significant for grain yield. Under ·these trials, genotype
GPU-0025 was found superior among all other genotypes.Evaluation of finger millet genotypes for river basin area of mid-western hills of Nepal [printed text] / K.R Pokhrel, Editor ; Dhakal, J.P. ; T. B. Ghimire, Author ; A Pokharel, Author ; Pokharel, B.B., Author . - [s.d.] . - 179-183 p.

Title : Evaluation of Potato Genotypes in the Western Hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Gautam, I.P., Author ; Paudel, K.B., Author ; K. P. Upadhyay, Author ; J. N. Chaudahry, Author ; B. Khatri, Author Pagination: 146-153 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: mid-hills. potato, RVT, RFFT, river basin Abstract: Regional varietal trial (RVI') and Regional Farmers' Field Trial (RFFT) on potato were
conducted to find out the most suitable and high yielding varieties at the outreach research
(OR) site Hemja ( 1000 masl) and river-basins of westem hills during winter of 2001 and
2002. Seven genotypes were replicated three times in RVI' and si.t: times iiz RFFT.
Experiments were conducted in a RCB design with the plot size of 16.8m2 in RVI' and 21m2 in
RFFT. Spacing was maintained at 60cm x 25cnL Fertilizers were applied at the rate of 20 t/ha
FYM and /50:100:90 kg N: P20 5: K20/ha. Observations were recorded on yield and yield
contributing parameters. The pooled analysis of two-year RVI' data showed a significant
result on tuber yield per hectare. The maximum tuber yield (25.0 tlha) was recorded on
genotype 388764.26 LB and it was found at par. with NSI -17 (22.6 t/ha) and NSI-6 (22.5
t/ha). Where as the lowest yield ( 18.6 t/ha) was recorded in MS-42-3 and was found at a par
with NSI-3W (20.9), NS/-1 3 (21) and NS/-1 2 (20.2) t/ha, respectively. The weight and number
of under sized tubers and tubers/plam showed a significant and highly significallt effect.
Similarly, the pooled analysis of CFFT result showed a highly significant effect on tuber yield
due to genotypic effect. The highest yield (22.38 t/ha) was recorded on the NS/-17 and it was
found at a par with NS1-12, NSI-3W and NS/-6 where as the lowest yield (14.16 t/ha) was
recorded 011 local variety MS-42-3.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=482 Evaluation of Potato Genotypes in the Western Hills of Nepal [printed text] / Gautam, I.P., Author ; Paudel, K.B., Author ; K.
