Performance of True Potato Seed (Tps) Families for Seedling Transplanting for Potato Production at Khumaltar / Adhikari, R.C. ; G. P. Rai ; K.C.Upreti
Title : Performance of True Potato Seed (Tps) Families for Seedling Transplanting for Potato Production at Khumaltar Material Type: printed text Authors: Adhikari, R.C., Author ; G. P. Rai, Author ; K.C.Upreti, Author Pagination: 167-173 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: seedlings, tuber family, transplanting, true potato seed, yield Abstract: Five different hybrid tnte potato seed (TPS) families received from the International Potato
Center (CIP), Lima, Peru were evaluated and compared with HPS ll/67 during the spring
season of 2002 and 2003 to see the peifomzance of TPS families for seedling transplanting for
potato production. TPS were raised in the aluminum trays and 32 days old seedlings were
transplamed in the field in randomized complete block design with four replications at
Klwmaltar, LLtlitpur. Nepal (I 360m as/). Survival of the transplanted seedlings in the field was
ranged from 72.77% to 95.84%. Late blight disease buildup in all the families was far low.
Total tuber weight, total tuber numbers and tuber numbers per plant among the TPS families
were significantly different. The ma.timum total tuber weights (2.44 kglm2
), numbers
( 129.53/nl) and ltlbers per plant ( 15.56) was produced by LT 8 x TPS 67. TPS families LT 8 x
TPS I 3 produced significamly highest average per tuber weight (28.59 g). The rested families
gave the average tuber production in the ratio of29:58: 13 of over seed size (>50 g), seed size
(25~50 g) and under size (<25 g) tubers, respectively. The result suggests that the families LT 8
x TPS 67 and MF I x TPS 67 were promising for potato production through seedling
transplanting under Klmmaltar conditions.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=485 Performance of True Potato Seed (Tps) Families for Seedling Transplanting for Potato Production at Khumaltar [printed text] / Adhikari, R.C., Author ; G.

Title : Effect of Planting Dates and Plant Spacing On.Late Season (March-May) Cauliflower Production Material Type: printed text Authors: P. P. Khatiwada, Author ; Chaudhary, B.P., Author Pagination: 328-333 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: cauliflower, date of transplanting, spacing Abstract: Afield experimellt was carried out for three consecutive years ( 1997-1999) in upper mid hills
( 1940 mas/) to identify an appropriate spacing and date of transplanting for the late season
(March -May) caulijlov..'.!r production using a11 open pollinated variety. Four different plant
spacing (45x30 em, 45x40 em, 45x50 em and 45x60 em) and the same mtmber of
transplallting dates ( 1" week of February, 3rr1 week of February, 1" week of March and 3"1
week of March) were tested in factorial arrangements in randomized complete block design
with three replications. Among the tested plant spacing, 45x30 em between row and plants
respectively yielded the highest ( 19.63 t/ha) curd yield, which was followed by 45x40 em
spacing ( 18.5 tlha). None significant yield difference of curd yield between 111 week of
February ( 18.55 tlha) and 11
' week of March ( 18.98 t/ha) transplanting clearly demonstrates
that Kibo Giant variety of cauliflower ca11 be transplanted up to the first week of March for
late season production without loosing its genetic potelllial. Higher yield than that of
national average from the last date of transplallling i.e. 3'd week March ( 13.9 t/ha) clearly
point out a need for further testing of the dates by using the same variety. Recommendation
of closer spacing simultaneously demands a new rate of fertilizer requirement. Hence, an
investigation for appropriate dose of chemical fenilizers using the new spacing is pivotal for
the technology promotion.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=553 Effect of Planting Dates and Plant Spacing On.Late Season (March-May) Cauliflower Production [printed text] / P. P. Khatiwada, Author ; Chaudhary, B.P., Author . - [s.d.] . - 328-333 p.
