Title : Development of cold tolerant rice varieties for the western hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Sah, R.P. ; Koirala, K.B., Author ; Ghimire, K.H., Author ; HK Prasai, Author ; Bhandari, H.S., Author ; R Poudel, Author ; Bhattarai M, Author Pagination: 88-93 p. Languages : English (eng) Abstract: In order to improve the yield potentials of rice in the western hills of Nepal, different field
experiments were conducted during 2000- 2001 in Regional Agriculture Research Station
rRA.RS) Lumle's Reseai·ch Command Area (RCA). Advanced breeding lines were evaluated
in mid to high hills for their cold tolerance ability. A few selected lines were evaluated
under farmers' field conditions and the farmers 'perception on the improved genotypes was
taken into consideration. Based on tlze overall results and feedbacks from farmers,
genotypes Lumle 1-9-1, LR 93002 and Lumle 1-1-1 were found better for quantitative and
qualitative traits with grain yield more than 5 tlha. These new lines are superior to local
and standard (Chhomrong) checks in all respects and have widely been accepted by
farmers.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1090 Development of cold tolerant rice varieties for the western hills of Nepal [printed text] / Sah, R.P. ; Koirala, K.B., Author ; Ghimire, K.H., Author ; HK Prasai, Author ; Bhandari, H.S., Author ; R Poudel, Author ; Bhattarai M, Author . - [s.d.] . - 88-93 p.

Languages : English (eng) Abstract: A total of 192 lines including exotic CGP and DGP received from International Rice
Research Institute (lRRl) and local sources were evaluated at Agriculture Botany Division,
Khumaltar and National Rice Research Program (NRRP), Hardinath during summer
2000-2002. A considerable variation for quantitative traits was recorded in the germplasm
evaluated Different lines have been identified as donor:s for various important agronomic
and yield contributing traits. F1s, BC1F1s, BC~1s and three-way crosses have been
developed through introgression of elite QTL from CGP and DGP lines into pcpular
commercial varieties K.humal-4 and Masuli. They will be advanced to BC~1. BC~1 and
BC-IF1 and selection for target traits in target environments will be carried out.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=1091 Development of rice varieties through introgression of elite genes from cgp and dgp lines using recurrent backcrossing with Khumal-4 and Masuli [printed text] / Sah, R.P. ; Koirala, K.B., Author ; Ghimire, K.H., Author ; HK Prasai, Author ; Bhandari, H.S., Author ; R Poudel, Author ; Bhattarai M, Author ; Akhtar, T., Author . - [s.d.] . - 95-104 p.

Title : Morphological characterization of district seeded rice landraces of foothills and river basin in far western development region Material Type: printed text Authors: HK Prasai ; Subarna Sharma, Author ; Ujjwal Kumar Singh Kushwaha, Author ; Bishnu Joshi, Author Pagination: 188-191 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Landraces ; Characterization Direct seeded rice Agro-environment Abstract: Numbers of rice landraces are grown by the farmers to fulfill their food requirement, socio econo
mic needs as well as cultural preferences through utilization exist ing heterogeneity in
so il , topograp hy and irrigation facility especially in far western Nepal. An experiment was
conducted during rainy season of 20 12 at Regional Agriculture Research Station, Bhagetada,
Doti as an attempt to characterize some of the direct seeded r ice landraces of foothi lls and
river basin agro-environment. The study was further intended in varietal improvement of the
local landraces for increasing productivity through effective selection techniques. For this
purpose, twelve indigenous lines of direct seeded rice were co llected from foothills and river
bas in areas of Doti and Dadeldhura districts. Cultivars were then evaluated in RCBD design
with three replications. Recommended dose of fertilizer and management practices were
appl ied. Morphologic al, Phenological and Yield attributing data were recorded and were
subjected to analysis through app lication ofMSTAT-C software. Cultivars were found nonsignificant
in traits such as; days to 75% flowering, days to 75% maturity, sp ike length, ti llers
per sq. m and unfilled grain per panicle. In contrast, s ignificant difference was exhibited
among these landraces in traits such as plant height, filled grain per panicle, Gra in Yield Kg
per hectare and I 000 grain weight. Cultivar Dal Badale and Naugire were signi ficantly taller
but Jhimma and Shyam jiro were found most dwarf. Latamandau Local showed significantly
higher average filed gra ins per pan icle but Shyam jiro and Dal Badalehave lower average
filled grain per panicle. Rate Dhan recorded significantly highest grain yield followed by
Anj ana; whereas cultivar Ghaiya local had lowest grain yield. Maximum I 000 grain weight
was recorded for Rate Dhan and Latamandau Local but Sunaulo exhibited the least test
weight.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=889 Morphological characterization of district seeded rice landraces of foothills and river basin in far western development region [printed text] / HK Prasai ; Subarna Sharma, Author ; Ujjwal Kumar Singh Kushwaha, Author ; Bishnu Joshi, Author . - [s.d.] . - 188-191 p.

Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Cultivar ; Upland Yield Local Grain Abstract: Seventeen landraces cultivars of rice were planted during 2012113 at agriculture research
station of Doti. Randomi zed Complete Blcok Design was appl ied during planting and the
experiment was repli cated twice. Each plot had one meter square area with 25 ems row to row
di stance. Different characters were recorded such as tillers/m2
• days to flowering, days to
maturi ty, culm length, panicle length, total length, fill ed grains per panicle, unfill ed grains per
panicle, grain yield and test weight. Among different lines, Churot showed high est till ers/m2
(350) followed by Jhimma (294) and Rato Seto had the least ( 160). Similarly, Basmati Bikase
had longer days to flowering (91) followed by Anj ana Rato (88) and Pele had shorter days to
flowering (75). Basmati Bikase took longer days to maturity ( 11 6) whereas Sal auga had
shorter days (111) to maturity. Longer culm length was of Gad i Dhan (131 em) and Sunaulo
had the least (85 em). In the same way, Pele had longest panicle length (28 em) and Basmati
Bikase (22 em) had the shortest. Highest tilled grains per panicle recorded in cu lti var Salauga
(175) and lowest was shown by Bikase Basmati ( l 02 ). Dhunge and Gadi Dhan showed (33)
and (32) unfilled grain per panicle respectively and the lowest was shown by Chadke (8.5). In
terms of grain yie ld, cultivar n1imma had high est grain y ie ld (5450 kg/ha) and Rato Seto had
the lowest (2200 kg!ha). Similarly, lowest test weight was shown by Jhimma (20.0 gm).
Among all local lines, cultivar Jbimma was found best in terms of yield, and so many others
characters such as shorter days to flowering and shorter days to maturiy. Simil arl y, cultivar
Rato Seto had lowest yield with less tillering and less number of grain per panicle.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=888 Morphological characterization of local rice germplasms of Far Western hills [printed text] / HK Prasai ; Subarna Sharma, Author ; Ujjwal Kumar Singh Kushwaha, Author ; Bishnu Joshi, Author . - [s.d.] . - 184-187 p.
