Title : Effect of Different Maturity Stages and Surface Treatments on Shelf life of Mango cv. Maldah Material Type: printed text Authors: Neelam Subba, Author ; Keshab Gliimire, Author ; B.L. Yadav, Author Pagination: 71-74 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Maturity stages, surface treatments, TSS, TTA Abstract: The effect of maturity stages and surface treatment on shelf life of mango cv. Maldah
was studied in room temperature (27-31°C and 67-84% RH) at farmers' storage
condition in Mulghat (370masl). The shelf life of mango harv_ested at three different
stages; mature green, half ripe and full ripe was subjected to three different surface
treatments; hot water dip (53:t.2°C for 5 min), 2% CaCI2 for 10 minutes, individual
polythene wrap and control. Through out the storage time, the changes in fruit weight,
number of fruits decay, total soluble solids (TSS), total titratable acidity (TTA} were
measured. The interaction effect of maturity stages and surface treatment was found
significant on shelf life of fruit. The study revealed that mango could be stored for 7-10
days at room temperature with surface treatments; hot water treatment and surface
treatment of fruits with CaCI2 solution were found effective in all three stages for
controlling post haNest losses due to anthracnose. Fruit loss due to disease was 21,
29.3 and 34.06% higher in three stages of maturity respectively in control in
comparison to hot water treated fruits. Weight loss due to shrinkage was found lowest
(1.67, 2.83 & 7.53-14.50 gm) in fruits individually wrapped in polythene in three stages
respectively. Other quality parameters such as changes in TSS and TT A did not differ
significantly among surface treatments.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=207 Effect of Different Maturity Stages and Surface Treatments on Shelf life of Mango cv. Maldah [printed text] / Neelam Subba, Author ; Keshab Gliimire, Author ; B.L. Yadav, Author . - [s.d.] . - 71-74 p.

Title : Performance of winter oilseed in the river basin areas of Surkhet District Material Type: printed text Authors: B.B Pokhrel, Author ; J.P Dhakal, Author ; S.R Sharma, Author ; RR Chaudhary, Author Pagination: 138-141 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: Toria, Genotypes, Seed Yield, Maturity Abstract: Among the oilseed crops, Toria is grown by majority of the farmers of the mid and far western region . Agriculture Research Station, Dasarathpur Surkhet conducted varietal experiments on Toria during two winter seasons of 2008 and 2009. Twelve CVT genotypes received from National Oilseed Research Program (NORP), Nawalpur Sarlahi, were tested in RCB design with three replications to identify the suitable genotypes. Among the tested genotypes from CVT, ACT-2001-24 produced the highest grain yield (791 kg/ha). Rest of the genotypes were found low yielder than the standard check Preeti (751 kg/ha). All of the genotypes were similar in maturity and there was no significant difference. Similarly, four promising genotypes viz. Morang Tori, ACC#9 l 09, ACC#9 I 18, and Unnati were tested in the five farmers' field of different VDCs of Surkhet district. Morang Tori produced significantly higher yield (830 kg/ha) than the remaining three varieties. There was no significant difference among four tested genotypes in maturity period.

Title : Evaluation of Cauliflower Varieties for Off-Season Production in the Mid Hills of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Budathoki, K, Author ; N G Pradhan, Author ; Bhattarai, D.R., Author Pagination: 409-417 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: cauliflower, maturity groups Abstract: Asadh to mid Mangsir are the off-season months for cauliflower. It is, hence, production and
marketing of quality cauliflower curd during these months are becoming very attractive
among thejam1ers due to high income and high profit received from off-season cauliflower.
However, cultivars capable of producing high quality curd and high yield at mid to high It ills
during these periods are lacking. In view of addressing these problems, experiment was
conducted at Horticulture Research Division, Khumaltar (1360 mas/). There were 14
cultivars, the seedlings of which were transplanted on 5 Shravan and 5 Bhadra. The
experiment was laid out in RCBD and there were two replications in each treatment. The
result indicated that cultivars White Flash, Snow King m!d Silver Cup 60 were extra early
and matured in 40-50 days. The mid maturing cultivars were Milk Way and Rami, which
matured from 60-75 days of transplanting. Jyapu Local, Snow Crown and Snow Mystic were
matured from 95-120 days from transplanting at the first planting date (Shrawatl of the 2058
and 2059). Similarly, at second planting date, the result indicated that the cultivars Tropical
45, Snow King and Silver Cup 60 were extra early cultivars, which matured from 30-50 days
from transplanting. The mid maturing cultivars were Milk Way, White Flash, White Contessa
and Rami matured from 60-75 days after planting. The late maturating cultivars is Jyapu
Local, Snow Mastique and Snow Crown matured from 85-120 days after planting. The result
further revealed that late maturing cultivar produced higher yields than those of early
maturing cultivars. The result indicated that a combination of different cauliflower cultivars
could be recommended for wider cultivation to harvest curd in these months.Link for e-copy: http://elibrary.narc.gov.np/?r=679 Evaluation of Cauliflower Varieties for Off-Season Production in the Mid Hills of Nepal [printed text] / Budathoki, K, Author ; N G Pradhan, Author ; Bhattarai, D.R., Author . - [s.d.] . - 409-417 p.
