Abstract: |
Numbers of rice landraces are grown by the farmers to fulfill their food requirement, socio econo mic needs as well as cultural preferences through utilization exist ing heterogeneity in so il , topograp hy and irrigation facility especially in far western Nepal. An experiment was conducted during rainy season of 20 12 at Regional Agriculture Research Station, Bhagetada, Doti as an attempt to characterize some of the direct seeded r ice landraces of foothi lls and river basin agro-environment. The study was further intended in varietal improvement of the local landraces for increasing productivity through effective selection techniques. For this purpose, twelve indigenous lines of direct seeded rice were co llected from foothills and river bas in areas of Doti and Dadeldhura districts. Cultivars were then evaluated in RCBD design with three replications. Recommended dose of fertilizer and management practices were appl ied. Morphologic al, Phenological and Yield attributing data were recorded and were subjected to analysis through app lication ofMSTAT-C software. Cultivars were found nonsignificant in traits such as; days to 75% flowering, days to 75% maturity, sp ike length, ti llers per sq. m and unfilled grain per panicle. In contrast, s ignificant difference was exhibited among these landraces in traits such as plant height, filled grain per panicle, Gra in Yield Kg per hectare and I 000 grain weight. Cultivar Dal Badale and Naugire were signi ficantly taller but Jhimma and Shyam jiro were found most dwarf. Latamandau Local showed significantly higher average filed gra ins per pan icle but Shyam jiro and Dal Badalehave lower average filled grain per panicle. Rate Dhan recorded significantly highest grain yield followed by Anj ana; whereas cultivar Ghaiya local had lowest grain yield. Maximum I 000 grain weight was recorded for Rate Dhan and Latamandau Local but Sunaulo exhibited the least test weight. |
