Title : Nepalese barley: Variation in agro-morphological characteristics Material Type: printed text Authors: R.B Amgai, Author ; S Pantha, Author ; T.B Chhetri, Author ; S. K. Budhathoki, Author ; S. Piya, Author ; Khatiwada, S.P., Author ; M.P. Upadhyaya, Author ; A Mudwari, Author Pagination: 110-113 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Barley, Disease, Spike Length Abstract: Different experiments namely National Observation Nursery (NON), Initial Evaluation Trial (JET), Coordinated Varietal Trial (CVT) and Coordinated Farmers' Field Trials (CFFT) were conducted both in hill and mountain environments during winter season of 2008 and 2009. Among the tested genotypes when combined over years, genotype LG-51/XVeola-2-77-3-3-1-1-l K (2378 kg/ha) produced the highest yield followed by ACC# l 557 (1958 kg/ha) and B 8679-lk-2-0K3 (1946 kg/ha) in NON-hill.

Title : ON-FARM VARIATION AND HOUSEHOLD DIVERSITY OF PIGEON PEA LANDRACES IN KACHORWA, NEPAL Material Type: printed text Authors: Joshi, Bal K., Author ; P. Shrestha, Author ; M.P. Upadhyaya, Author Publication Date: 2007 Article on page: 23-28 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Household diversity index, on-farm variation, pigeon pea, quant-qualitativetraits Abstract: Farmers value the diversity because of diverse environments both in production and
consumption. On-farm morphological variation on pigeon peas (2n = 2x= 22 or 4x, 6x?) was
studied at Kachorwa, Bara, Nepal to assess the household categories that have maintained
diversity. Household diversity Index (HDI) of 10 different farmer categories was estimated
based on Shanon-Weaver method. Eighteen quantitative and qualitative (quant-qualitative)
traits were used for on-farm variation and HDI studies. On farm ANOVA was generated on
eight quantitative traits. Highest diversity (HDI, 0.265) was maintained by farmer of
medium wealth category who grows pigeon pea in upland bund. Pigeon pea grown in khet
(low land) bund with Pajawa landrace expressed least diversity (HDI, 0.079). Pigeon pea
growing in monoculture was more diverse (HDI, 0.224) for 18 traits than in other production
environments. Maximum variation was observed in growth habit followed by seed color
pattern. The highest grain yield among the Chanki growers was produced by the farmer of
medium wealth category growing pigeon pea in upland bund. Significance variation among
farmers in quantitative traits indicates the intra varietal diversity in pigeon pea. Diversity
varied with respect to wealth category and production environments. Farmer who has
maximum diversity on pigeon pea could able to receive the higher grain yield. Result related
to where and who maintain the diversity may be useful for development of on-farm
conservation strategy. Possibility of developing good varieties exits using Pajawa and
Chanki landraces.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=23

Title : Variation on agro-morphological characteristics among Nepalies finger millet germplasm Material Type: printed text Authors: R.B Amgai, Editor ; T.B Chettri ; S. K. Budhathoki, Author ; M.P. Upadhyaya, Author ; Khatiwada, S.P., Author ; A Mudwari, Author Pagination: 193-196 p. Keywords: Finger millet ; Landrace variation qualitative quantitative Abstract: Finger millet is the 4111 important food crop in Nepal. It is major food for hilly region of the
country. Finger millet is CQnsidered as more nutritious cereal food. Nepal harbor a lot of the
finger millet germplasm variability across the country that have a lot of breeding value.
Therefore, four hundred and thirty nine finger millet accessions collected from different
parts of the country were evaluated for 19 different qualitative and quantitative traits during
normal finger millet growing season of2009 and 2010. Two rows of 1.5 m long with 20 em
spacing were used on augmented design with Daile, Okhale, Kahre Kodo-1 and GPU-48 as
check varieties. Seed was sown on both rows and plant spacing was maintained for 15 em
after 30 days of seedling emergence. Other cultivation practice was conducted as per
normal condition. A lot of variation was found for both traits. Days to 50% heading, days to
SO% maturity, Effective tiller, Finger no., no. of seed per finger and total grain per spike
varied from 48-101, 79-172, 1-6, 2-10, 65-2597 and 123-2775 respectively. A lot of
variation was also found on ear shape, ear size, grain covering, grain color, grain shape,
grain surface and pericarp persistence characteristics. This variation can be used for the
development of the finger millet varieties for niche specificity and broad adaptability.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=941 Variation on agro-morphological characteristics among Nepalies finger millet germplasm [printed text] / R.B Amgai, Editor ; T.B Chettri ; S.
