The present investigation was laid out to understand the combining ability effects, nature of gene action of parents and their hybrids, heterosis and stability performance for seed yield and yield contributing characters in four different environments. The experimental material comprising of 118 entries involving 25 parents, 18 single cross hybrids, 72 three way cross hybrids along with three checks were evaluated in randomized block design with two replications during two crop seasons i.e. Rabi, 2018 and Kharif, 2019 at two locations i.e. Parbhani (E1 and E3) and Latur (E2 and E4) comprising...

Sorghum is grown in India in places with 500 to 1000 mm of yearly rainfall and temperatures ranging from 26 to 32 0C. Plains and plateaus below 100m elevation provide good opportunities for effective crop cultivation in two seasons: Kharif as a rainfed crop and Rabi as a protected irrigated crop, with 60 and 40 percent cultivation, respectively. Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a diploid (2n = 2x = 20) cross pollinated crop from the poaceae family. After wheat, maize, rice, and barley, sorghum is the most essential cereal grain. The induced mutagenesis in kharif sorghum has been...

The topic of investigation revolves around the use of electron beam as a mutagen to induce variability in the rabi sorghum population known as TSG-98 (Muguthi). The study, conducted over a span of three years, aimed to evaluate the mutagenic sensitivity and effectiveness of different doses of electron beam irradiation on the germination, plant survival, and chlorophyll mutations in the M1 and M2 generations of TSG-98. The results revealed a dose-dependent reaction, with lower doses being more effective and efficient in inducing viable mutations.

The primary objective of present investigation was to assess the level of genetic variation, correlation, and path analysis of traits related to seed yield and yield contributing characters in Sesame (Sesamum indicum L.). The study utilized a set of thirty diverse elite sesame genotypes, including one check, which were planted in a Randomized Block Design with three replications during the 2022-23 summer season at Experimental Farm of AICRP on Safflower, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapeeth, Parbhani (Maharashtra).
