Forty five F 1 s were developed by crossing 10 elite lines of okra in half diallel fashion during summer 2016. All 45 F 1 s along with their 10 parents and one standard check (Nunhems hybrid Shakti) were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications during late kharif

The experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with two replications. Observations were recorded on various yield and yield contributing characters. In general, the magnitude of the phenotypic coefficient of variation (PCV) was greater than that of the genotypic coefficient of variation (GCV) and the narrow difference between them indicates less environmental influence on the expression of the trait. High PCVand GCV (>20%) were recorded on plant height, number of branches per plant, pod thickness, number of pods per plant and non-reducing sugars which indicates the presence of high genetic variation and scope for effective improvement. All the characters studied in this experiment showed high heritability (>60%) in a broad sense coup...

Methods: 22 pea genotypes were analyzed using twenty-one phenotypic characters and eight SSR markers. The data obtained by morphological and molecular profiling was used to analyze genetic diversity among genotypes. Result: This study reveals that most genetic variation was due to variation within the population and was clustered into two distinct groups. As revealed by molecular markers, the relation among the diversified genotypes was not significantly correlated with those based on morphological traits, suggesting that the two systems give different estimates of genetic relations among the genotypes. The present study’s findings can be used to select diverse genotypes to be used as parents of crosses aimed at breeding improved pea cultivars.

Six cultivars were evaluated for candy, murabba and pickle with four replication and storage studies was also conducted. The Physico-chemical and sensory score were analysed during the product preparation and storage. Cultivars yield significant results in the parameters studied. Candy and murabba prepared from cv. Chakaiya proved much better with respect to quality parameters studied ranged viz.

Majority of the coconut growers in the district were facing the problem of theft of fallen nuts and shortage of skilled labor for nut harvesting. The traditional method of harvesting the nuts using knife with bamboo sticks for dwarf trees and climbing the tall trees was quite risky and accident prone. To overcome this problem, ICAR-Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Chitradurga conducted training programmes to unemployed rural farm youths in collaboration with Coconut Development Board, Cochin. Total 80 farm youths were trained during 2012-13. With the conventional coconut climbing, a person could harvest about 8-25 nuts/ tree while climbing the tree one had experienced body pain, muscles catch and lot of life risk with meager earnings of Rs.5,000-15,000/-year. After using the Coconut tree climber, annual income increased to Rs.20,000-60,000/-year and a person could climb more than 80-100 feet tall coconut tree without any life risk and harvesting efficiency increased to tune of 20-50 nuts/tree. This was encouraged many youths from surrounding villages to approach KVK to undergo training and choose coconut harvesting as an employment generation opportunity to meet their livelihood demand. Simultaneously, farmers were also benefitted by harvesting the nuts at right time and getting quality nuts also good price in the market.

Moench] is a prestigious and prize value vegetable crop, which has captured a significant position among vegetables in India. It is especially valued for its tender green fresh delicious fruits, which are used as vegetable. Okra is normally cultivated during summer and rainy seasons and it is an important vegetable crop of the tropics and subtropics of the world and has found its place in India since time immemorial. Okra is significant herbaceous annual crop, having a somatic chromosome number of 2n=130 and is considered to be an amphidiploid. It is being an often cross pollinated crop, out crossing occurs to an extent of 4 to 19 per cent with a maximum of 42.2 per cent by insect assisted pollination (Kumar, 2006), which render a International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 8 Number 04 (2019) Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com

The district average yield of onion is 19.9 t/ha but, potential yield is around 30 t/ha, which indicates that there is scope for increasing the productivity and returns. The reasons for lower productivity are poor quality seed material, imbalanced nutrient management, and lack of awareness on plant protection measures and use of local varieties.

Protection of crops against bacterial disease is an important issue in agricultural production. Pomegranate production in India is severely hampered by the high incidence of bacterial blight disease caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. punicae is air borne, the conventional ways and means of controlling this disease have failed. Evolving a resistant genotype using resistant variety through conventional breeding may be a way out but it is a time consuming process. Transgenic approach appears to be promising to minimize the losses caused by disease. In the present investigation efficient protocols were developed to get healthy and well-formed plants from juvenile and mature-origin explants of the pomegranate cv. ‘Bhagwa’ and transformants with PFLP...

Although, it is a multipurpose and multifarious crop, it is extensively grown for its tender pods, which are used as a very popular, tasty and gelatinous vegetable. Okra is the most important vegetable crop in India. Among the vegetables grown in India, okra occupies fifth position, next to tomato in area. Yield plateau seems to have been reached in openpollinated varieties of okra. However, it could be improved through hybridization. Marked heterosis of 38 to 71 percent has been reported in okra for yield and its components International Journal of Current Microbiology and Applied Sciences ISSN: 2319-7706 Volume 8 Number 01 (2019) Journal homepage: http://www.ijcmas.com

The plant was previously included in the genus Hibiscus. Later, it was designated to Abelmoschus, which is distinguished from the genus Hibiscus (Aladele et al., 2008). Okra originated in Ethiopia and was then propagated in North Africa and in India by the 12 th century BC.
