Diversity and Role of Mango (Magnifera Indica L.) in Livelihood of Mango Growers of Eastern Terai of Nepal / Regmi, H.N. ; K.Budathoki ; N G Pradhan    

Public ISBD in Fourth national workshop on horticulture , March 2-4, 2004 ; Abstracts     Title : Diversity and Role of Mango (Magnifera Indica L.) in Livelihood of Mango Growers of Eastern Terai of Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Regmi, H.N., Author ; K.Budathoki, Author ; N G Pradhan, Author Pagination: 102-109 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: diversity,  landraccs,  mango,  Socio-economic  study Abstract: A study was carried out during the summer of 2003 in Bastipur of Siraha and Sripur of Saptari districts where mango is a major tropical fruit. The objectives of the study were to understand the diversity of mango mailllained by the farmers, assess the opportunity and constraints and contribution made by the mango fruits in tl1eir livelihood. Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA), Focus group discussion (FGD), transect walk and key informant survey were the tools used in the study. The cultivation of mango is a tradition in both villages. History for cultivation of mango was traced since time immemorial. It was also found that some cultural relationships were also linked with the mango trees as well. In both sites, generally mango is being cultivated in dry and poor soil and also in marginal lands where no other crops do well. Diversity of mango has been observed in both villages maintained by the famlers. The famlers have grown a large number of improved cultivars as well as locallandraces. Among ihe cultivars Maldha, a medium maturity variety with goodlooking appearance. size and very good taste. After Maldha, Bombay Green was most popular for mid season cultivar, Kalkattia and local land races. Fruit has a major role in the livelihood of the farm family of the study sites, which contributed an average of 40% of the total household income. Opportunities and constraints in mango production identified and recommendations have been made accordinglv.

Ecogeographic and Genetic Diversity Analysis of Mango in Nepal / Subedi, A ; Bajracharya, J. ; Regmi, H.N. ; H. B. K. C ; Gupta, S.R. ; B.K. Joshi    

Public ISBD in Fourth national workshop on horticulture , March 2-4, 2004 ; Abstracts     Title : Ecogeographic and Genetic Diversity Analysis of Mango in Nepal Material Type: printed text Authors: Subedi, A, Author ; Bajracharya, J., Author ; Regmi, H.N., Author ; H. B. K. C, Author ; Gupta, S.R., Author ; B.K. Joshi, Author Pagination: 66-70 p. Languages : English (eng) Keywords: ccogcographic  survey,  genetic  diversity,  landraccs,  diversity  index Abstract: Mango is one of the important tropical fruits of Nepal ami occurs as a domesticated or ll'ild entity in the complex of biotic community of the ecosystem. Wide ecological variation and diverse needs of multi-ethnic comm1mities has enriched the country with genetic 1vealth of diverse mango varieties and land races. The tropical plain, river gorge areas and sub-tropical valleys are the regions that are rich in mango diversity. As a result, the global project on "Strengthening scientific basis of in-situ consen•ation of agricultural biodiversity on-farm, Nepal componellt" identified mango as a mandatol)' crop and under the project, ecogeographic sun•ey and genetic di1•ersity was carried to measure the extent of diversity. Siraha, Saptari, Dhading, Kavre, Parbat. Baglw1g and Dadeldlwra, the districts representing the Terai and mid-hill ecosystems ll'ere surreyed for mango diversity. Fruit samples of 216 mango trees collected in ecogeographic sun•ey were evaluated for nineteen nwrplwlogical characters of fruit to understand the genetic relationships. A mnge of \'(/riation e.risted in varietalfrmit of mango with dijferellf shapes, co/ow; sizes,j7al'fmr (aroma) and taste u·ith 25- 47 coefficiellts of variation and 0.59-0.87 Shannon Weaver index. Principal compm1e11t analysis of qualitative traits and quallfitative traits of fruits sholl'ed the existence of a collfinuum diversity of mango in Ne1}(ll with no ecogeograpflic differentiation and qualiwtive traits were of importance in determining tile groupings and relationships rif mcmgo \'Orieties under study.
