Title : Genotype-Environment Interaction and Stability Analysis for Grain Yield of Mid-hill Rice Genotypes Material Type: printed text Authors: Upreti, H.K., Author ; Bista, S., Author ; Sah, S.N., Author Publication Date: 2007 Article on page: 14-17 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: G × E interaction, grain yield, mid-hill rice, stability Abstract: Genotype x Environment interaction limits the effectiveness of selection when selection is based only on mean yield. This G × E interaction was studied for grain yield in 7 genotypes of mid-hill rice in five different environments across the Nepal. Significant difference was observed among genotype (G), environment (E) and interaction (G × E) but could not identify the stable high yielding genotypes for diverse environments. Therefore, stability parameters were calculated and analyzed. On the basis of stability parameters, two genotypes, NR 10414, NR 10492 and NR 10515 were found to be most stable over different environments. NR 10353 was identified as suitable genotypes with high grain yield for favorable environment.

Title : Honeybee Flora at Kabre, Dolakha District Material Type: printed text Authors: Bista, S., Author ; Shivakoti, Gopal P., Author Publication Date: 2000 Article on page: 18-25 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Apis cerana, bee flora, keeping, dearth period, honey flow Abstract: Adequate knowledge about bee flora is the prerequisite to initiate bee keeping. A study was
conducted at Kabre area of Dolakha district during 1997-1999 to identify existing bee flora and
develop a floral calendar. Based on the interview with bee farmers and visual observations, 119
important plant species were recorded, out of which 47 species were found major sources for
honeybees. Spring season (mid-March to mid-June) and autumn season (mid-Sept to Oct) were
identified as honey flow periods having a number of floral plants such as Guizotia abyssinica,
Fraxinus floribunda, Prunus cerasoides, Pyrus communis, Castanopsis indica, Brassica spp.,
Citrus spp., Berberis spp., Rubus spp., Rhododendron spp. and Trifolium spp. Winter season (mid-
Nov to Feb) is the critical dearth period with a few flowering plants like Reinwardtia indica,
Pogestemon glaber, Caesalpinia spp. and Eupatorium spp. Depending upon the climatic
conditions, possibility of planting multipurpose plants has been discussed. Based on available
flora, major characteristics of these plant species, utility status and flowering duration a bee floral
calendar was developed for Kabre. To conserve these floras, attention must be made to maintain
and multiply the existing flora.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=88

Title : Major constraints and management practices in the performance of Apis cerana F. an d Apis mellifera L. in kathmandu valley Material Type: printed text Authors: Bista, S., Author ; G.P Shivakoti, Author Pagination: 190-194 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: Traditional beekeeping is a cultural heritage in Nepal. Among available four species of indigenous honeybees , Apiscerana is the only cultivated one. The exotic honeybee A.mellifera is also becoming popular. At present, both cultivated species have been practiced in modem beehives. But major constraints and management practices on honeybee production have not been identified under major agro-ecological conditions……………….

Title : Performance of silkworm races feeding on different mulberry cultivars in mid-hill conditions Material Type: printed text Authors: Bista, S., Author ; S. Aryal, Author ; B. P. Mainali, Author ; Maharjan, R, Author Pagination: 426-431 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Cocoon quality, mulberry cultivars, silkworm strains Abstract: Experiment was conducted to assess the optimum interaction between common silkworm races (J-12 and C-12) with different mulberry varieties (Kanva-2, Lun-40, K-22, Khumal-1 and Khumal-3) at Khumaltar, Lalitpur during the year 2004/05 and 2005/06. The bud initiation and senescence characteristics were found superior in Kanva–2 among the tested cultivars. The last instars larval weight was found more in Japanese strain of silkworm fed with Kanva-2, Lun-40 and K-22 cultivars while no much difference was observed in pupal weight. The mounting was faster in Chinese strains and percentage good cocoon recovery was slightly more in Japanese strains (82.75 to 90.74%) fed with Kanva-2 variety………………
