[article]
Title : Rice Gene Pool for Tarai and Inner Tarai Areas of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Joshi, Bal K., Author Publication Date: 2005 Article on page: 10-22 p Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Ancestor, Landrace, Nepalese rice cultivar, Rice gene pool, Tarai and Inner Abstract: Knowledge on crop gene pool helps to develop varieties, to know the potential sources for
breeding materials and to develop strategy for sustainable use and conservation. The amount of
genetic diversity presents depends on the number and diversity of the original ancestors
involved in the creation of a germplasm pool, existing landraces and wild species. The objective
of this research was to study the diversity of rice gene pool present in the Nepalese improved
rice cultivars and landraces adapted to Tarai and Inner Tarai ( Nepalese rice cultivars were examined and surveyed the literature for distribution of landraces
and wild relatives of rice. Crosses among indica rice gene pool are more common and use of
japonica and nivara species were less common. There are 28 improved rice cultivars, >500
landraces, and 6 wild species and relatives of rice adapted to Tarai and Inner Tarai. Eight
countries are the origins for 28 cultivars. In Nepal 4 cultivars were bred and developed using a
local landrace and exotic genotypes. A total of 35 ancestors originated in 11 different countries
were used to develop these 28 cultivars. Highest number of ancestors was from India. Use of
ancestors of both sativa and nivara species having indica and japonica types indicated the
collection of wide gene pool. Most of the ancestors were sativa (60.00%) and indica (65.71%).
Genetic erosion is observed in rice diversity therefore, in situ, on farm and ex situ conservations
are necessary for maintaining the genetic variation. Utilization of local landraces in breeding
program may be the good way of genetic resources conservation. Gene pool from these
landraces along with international gene pool could make towards success in developing high
yielding cultivars with wide adaptability and/or site specific. In this study, cultivars and
landraces surveyed represent a wide range of variation for different areas of origin and
adaptation. This genetic diversity is very useful for further rice improvement and should be
conserved both ex situ and in situ.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=56

Title : Storability of Some Promising Potato Cultivars under Diffused Lightstorage (DLS) Condition Material Type: printed text Authors: Khatri, B.B., Author ; D.N. Ojha, Author Publication Date: 1997 Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Cultivar, diffused light, potato, storability, temperature Abstract: The storability of eleven different Potato cultivars was assessed under diffused light storage (DLS) system. The growth and yield performance of the stored tubers were determined under field condition. Field performance in warm environment of locally multiplied seed stored under DLS indicates that cold-storage is not always necessary. Among the eleven clones, only CIP 800936 and Kufri Dewa had good storage quality under diffused light condition for 3.5 months with

Title : Effect of Cold Treatment for Off-Season Production of Different Cultlvar of Tomato (Lycopresicon Esculernum) Material Type: printed text Authors: Madhu S. Ghale, Author Pagination: 254-256 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Cold treatment, cultivar, thermo-sensitivity, tomato, yield Abstract: An experiment was conducted in tomato during 2004 and 2005 at Agriculture Research
Station (Horticulture) Malepatan, Pokhara. The .experiment was conducted in factorial
randomized complete block design with three teplications. Five different ·cultivars
namely HRD1xHRD7, HRD1xHRD6, N5-162, NS-835 and Lapsigede as local check
were the first factor. Two different cold treatments and control were the second factor.
The eight days old seedlings were imposed 12 and 24 hours to cold treatment {14±1
°C). It was grown under poly house maintaining 90cm row to row and 60 em plant to
plant spacing. HRD1xHRD7 recorded maximum number of cluster (10.30) per plant
where as flowers (8.29) per cluster were recorded in HRD1xHRD6. The highest
average fruit diameter (42.91 mm) and weight (54.81 gm) were observed in NS-835.
Statistical highest yield (43.28 Vha) were recorded from HRD1xHRD7 but it was at par
with NS-162. None of tested cultivars were found to be therrno~sensitive.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=257 Effect of Cold Treatment for Off-Season Production of Different Cultlvar of Tomato (Lycopresicon Esculernum) [printed text] / Madhu S. Ghale, Author . - [s.d.] . - 254-256 p.
