Participatory plant breeding in rice: Experience of National Rice Research Program, Hardinath / B. Chaudhary    

Public ISBD in Agricultural research for enhancing livelihood of Nepalese people: Proceedings of 2nd SAS-N Convention, 30 July-1 Aug 2003, Kathmandu / Joshi, Bal K.     Title : Participatory plant breeding in rice: Experience of National Rice Research Program, Hardinath Material Type: printed text Authors: B. Chaudhary, Author ; Gyawali S., Author ; Joshi, K.D., Author ; K.P Khatiwada, Author ; Shrestha, K.P., Author ; A Mudwari, Author ; M.P Uphadhyay, Author ; Joshi, Bal K., Author ; Sthapit, Bhuwan R., Author ; Shrestha, H.K., Author Pagination: 222-226 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Participatory  plant  breeding,  rice,  selection  criteria Abstract: Rice is the most important cereal crop in Nepal for ensuring food security and enhancing economic growth. The crop is grown in diverse agroecological zones ranging from lowland Terai of 60 mast to 3000 masl of Jumla district (NARC 1997).Based on rainfall pattern and altitudes, Upadhyay (1996) classified eleven rice production and recommendation domains at macro level. At present, the development of varieties and production technologies is based on major rice production domains as described by Chaudhary (2002). At micro level, there is wide diversity in fanncrs' resources endowments, production objectives, agroecological conditions and socio­ cultural settings for rice production even within the Terai (Gauchan ct al 1997, Gauchan 2001). In addition, fanners used to grow more than 2000 rice landraces before introduction of tnodcm varieties (Joshi 2000).This demands u wide runge of rice varieties to meet lhe farmers' requirements nnd fanners still grow more limn 200 landraces of rice to address their specific needs.

Red Listing of Agricultural Crop Species, Varieties and Landraces / Joshi, Bal K. in Nepal Agriculture Research Journal, Vol. 5 (2004)  

Public ISBD [article]  inNepal Agriculture Research Journal > Vol. 5 (2004) . - 73-79 p Title : Red Listing of Agricultural Crop Species, Varieties and Landraces Material Type: printed text Authors: Joshi, Bal K., Author ; ,Upadhyay, Madhusudan, Author ; Gauchan, Devendra, Author ; Sthapit, Bhuwan R., Author ; Joshi, K.D., Author Publication Date: 2004 Article on page: 73-79 p General note: Review article Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Agricultural  crops,  conservation,  on  farm,  red  list  category,  red-listing  criteria Abstract: Red listing mechanism has been developed for wild fauna and flora. There are several documents illustrating red listed wild fauna and flora. But there is a lack of information on the red list and red listing criteria of agricultural crop species, varieties or landraces. For initiating on- farm, in situ and ex situ conservations, red listing is helpful in locating region of crop species, varieties or landraces diversity. The paper reviewed the red listing criteria used for the categorization of wild fauna and flora. Categorization of on-farm crop species, varieties and landraces is based on population, ecological, social, modernization and use criteria. Among them ecological, social and modernization criteria are useful in selecting location for sampling materials for ex situ conservation and appropriate sites for in situ conservation. Modernization and use criteria are suitable for categorization of crop genotypes. Combinations of these criteria are proposed for red listing crop genotypes and areas.
