EFFECT OF PRE AND POST EMERGENCE HERBICIDES ON WEEDS, PRODUCTIVITY AND PROFITABILITY OF MAIZE (ZEA MAYS L.)

A field experiment was conducted during kharif, 2017 at the Main Agricultural Research Station, agriculture college farm, Raichur to study the “Activity of soil enzyme and microorganisms in rhizosphere soil of maize (Zea mays L.) as influenced by different weed management practices”. The experiment[r]

A field experiment was conducted during Kharif 2011 to generate the ground truth data of maize crop at Crop Research Station Bahraich of N.D.U.A&T, Kumarganj, Faizabad (U.P.) as to assess the “Evaluation of the DSSAT Crop Growth Model with Maize (Zea mays L.)

The efficiency of a breeding programme depends mainly on the direction and magnitude of the association between yield and its components and also the relative importance of each factor involved in contributing to grain yield. The path analysis provides an effective measure of direct and indirect cau[r]

Maize is an important and popular cereal crop with the huge yield potential and it is grown as monocrop under irrigated condition. Monoculture of maize deprives the soil of its nutrients. Since, maize is relatively a widely spac[r]

Twenty four newly developed maize hybrids along with three commercial checks were evaluated for their yield performance at three locations under heat stress and optimal conditions. Pooled analysis of variance revealed significant differences among hybrids for grain yield. Mean sum of squares due to[r]

Ten S1 lines along with three hybrids were evaluated in randomized block design at Instructional-cum-Research (ICR) Farm of Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat. The aim to study the genetic variability, heritability, genetic advance and low nitrogen tolerance of S1 lines derived from local maize g[r]

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) form obligate symbiotic association with the roots of crop plants and play a critical role in enhancing plant growth under semi-arid climatic conditions. Present investigation has been taken up to characterize the isolated AM fungal species from rhizosphere soils o[r]

The field experiment was conducted during summer 2015 and 2016 under irrigated condition to study the effect of land configurations and deficit irrigation on maize at the Main Agriculture Research Station, University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad, Karnataka.

Introduction of multipurpose trees plays an important role in agroforestry systems. It enriches the soil by providing soil cover thus providing habitat for soil flora and fauna. However, integration of trees with various crops needs to be evaluated for its allelopathic potential before its introduct[r]

Drought stress is one of the most important environmental issues that reduce growth, development and yield of the plants. Developing maize cultivars that can perform well in drought and other abiotic stress is an important goal throughout the world. Germination is one of the main growth stages for s[r]

Combining ability analysis for yield and its component traits was performed with 8lines, 3 testers and the resulting 24 crosses using Line×Tester analysis. The analysis of variance indicated significant differences among parents, lines, testers, crosses, and parents vs. crosses for almost all the tr[r]

Turcicum leaf blight (TLB) or Northern Corn Leaf Blight (NCLB) is a ubiquitous foliar disease of corn (maize) caused by Exserohilum turcicum, the anamorph of the ascomycete Setosphaeria. The TLB fungus survives through the winter on infected maize residue at the soil surface. As temperatures rise in[r]

The present experiment was conducted to study the effect of different levels of potassium on growth, yield attributes, yields and economies of maize crop.

A field experiment was conducted at Parbhani on vertisols during rabi seasons of 2013-14 and 2014-15 to find out the effect of eight weed control strategies i.e. T1: Pendimethalin @ 0.75 kg/ ha (PE), T 2: Trifluralin @ 1.0 kg/ ha (PE), T 3: Metolachlor 0.75 kg/ ha (PE), T 4: Imazethapyr @ 0.75 kg/ h[r]

The highest total bacteria, actinomycetes and fungi count was recorded in atrazine @ 1.25 kg ai ha-1 as pre-emergence fbtopramezone @ 25 g ai ha-1 at 20 DAS as post-emergence (T6) which was superior over all other treatments during both the years of study and the lowest was recorded in weedy check.[r]
