Title : On-farm performance of quality protein maize genotypes under rainfed hill environments of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Upadhyay, S.R., Author ; D.B Gurung, Author ; Paudel, D.C., Author ; Pokhrel, B.B., Author ; K.B Koirala, Author ; Sah, S.N., Author ; Katuwal, R.B., Author ; Prasad, R.C., Author ; Dhakal, R., Author Pagination: 40-46 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Genotype environment interaction, open pollinated varieties, quality protein maize. Abstract: Maize (Zea mays L.) is the second most important staple food crop after rice and a major food crop of the resource poor people in the hills of Nepal. Prevailing normal maize (non-QPM) is deficient in two essential amino acids: lysine and tryptophan. The majority of hill farm families are suffering from protein malnutrition as their major diet is maize and cannot afford animal protein. QPM (Quality Protein Maize) contains opaque-2, a single gene mutation that alters the protein composition of the endosperm portion and nearly double the essential amino acids concentrations than the normal maize grain……………….

Title : Rice varietal research for mid hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Upreti, H.K., Editor ; Bista, S., Author ; Sah, S.N., Author ; Prasad, R.C., Author ; HK Prasai, Author ; Dhakal, R., Author Publisher: Hardinath, Janakpur : National Rice Research Programme Publication Date: 2010 Pagination: 142-153 p. Keywords: Fine rice ; genotypes selection mid hills livelihood Abstract: Field experiments were conducted at Khumaltar farm involving 85 rice genotypes during 2004 and 101 in 2005 from previous
selection and exotic rice germplasm to identify input efficient, high yielding, and disease resistant superior rice genotypes for mid
hills. Multi location test of coordinated varietal and farmers field trials were conducted at Pakhribas, Lumle, Dolakha and
Dailekh.These lines were compared with standard check varieties in randomized complete block design. Five promising lines were
evaluated in the farmer's field for adaptability and acceptance test. Selected lines were NR10353-8-2-l, NR10414-34-2-3, NR10492-
7-2-2, NR10491-57-2-1, and NR10515-69-1 based on agro-morphological traits and quality parameters. The major traits used for
selection are days to maturity, plant height, grain type and size and yield. These lines were similar to or superior to standard check
varieties in most of the quality and other yield attributing traits. Among them NR10353-8-2-l was preferred by farmers due to its
input efficient high yield with fine quality rice and lodging resistant and released for general cultivation in the name of Khumal-8.
NR 10492-7-2-2 and NR 10515-69-1 showing yield stability over the year in farmers field across the country. Adoption of these
varieties will increase rice production and help to enhance the livelihood of the hill farmers.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1012 Rice varietal research for mid hills of Nepal [printed text] / Upreti, H.K., Editor ; Bista, S., Author ; Sah, S.N., Author ; Prasad, R.C., Author ; HK Prasai, Author ; Dhakal, R., Author . - Hardinath, Janakpur : National Rice Research Programme, 2010 . - 142-153 p.
