Buckwheat has attracted considerable interest amongst the global scientific community due to its nutritional and pharmaceutical properties. It is a low input crop whose cultivation has persisted through centuries of civilization in almost every country where cereals were cultivated. The crop is an important source of rutin, an important flavonoid which is known to have cardioprotective, vasoprotective, antihypertensive, anti-inflammation, cytoprotective and anti-diabetic properties. Grains of buckwheat are a rich source of protein with a balanced amino acid composition, gluten free flour, dietary fibre, vitamins, resistant starch, phytosterols, fagopyrins, fagopyritols and phenolic compounds. Buckwheat is a short season crop which completes its life cycle in 70-90 days and can grow in wide range of environmental conditions including marginal lands and rocky, poorly tilled soils. The protein content in buckwheat flour is higher than in commonly used cereals such as rice, wheat, millet, sorghum and maize. Buckwheat grain protein is rich in lysine and arginine, which are generally limiting in other cereals. Because of a low Lys/ Arg and Met/Gly ratio, buckwheat protein has strong hypolipidemic activity. While Buckwheat is considered as a healthy food because of its nutraceutical properties, low yields due to seed shattering because of pedicel breaking and heterozygosity due to self-incompatibility as a consequence of dimorphic heterostylism have always remained major problems in achieving large scale incorporation of common buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum) in the agricultural portfolio. The present review highlights the multicore potential of buckwheat as a super crop to meet the challenges of food and nutritional security.

In present study, 67 JNPT (Jawahar New Plant Type) lines were evaluated for 28 morphological and quality traits planted in RCBD with three replications. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) revealed that out of 28, only eight PCs exhibited more than 1.0 eigen value and showed about 81.84% total variability. For selecting the high yielding genotypes in rice, the characters viz., spikelet density, spikelet fertility, number of tillers plant–1and panicle weight plant–1 may be considered. On the basis of high PC score ten most prominent lines namely JNPT-1059-9, JNPT-1059- 10, JNPT1062-1, JNPT-1062-2, JNPT-1064-9, JNPT-1065-1, JNPT-1065-2, JNPT1065-3, JNPT-1066-52 and JNPT-1068- 65 were identified for yield and quality traits.

Triallel crosses can be readily exploited as breeding tool for developing commercial hybrids with traits of genetical and commercial importance by acquiring information on specific combining ability effects along with general combining ability effects if the experimentation size is reduced to an economical extent. In this paper, methods of constructing designs involving partial triallel crosses in smaller blocks using different types of lattice designs have been introduced. The designs have low degree of fractionation, which suggests their utility when there is a resource crunch. Canonical efficiency factor of these designs relative to an orthogonal design with same number of lines, assuming constant error variance for both situations, is high indicating that adoption of these designs for the trials could bring about improvement as the recommendations from the experiment will be associated with a high precision.

Twenty four Okra genotypes were evaluated for marketable fruit yield and its related traits for genotype environment interaction during 2015-16 and 2016-17. The genotypes were exposed to alkaline environment with a pH range of 8.0±0.2, 8.5±0.2, 9.0±0.2 and 9.5±0.2. A significant level of deviation in expression of different traits was observed in all the genotypes with increasing pH. Based on Additive Main Effects and Multiplicative Interaction (AMMI), Genotype and Genotype Environment Interaction (GGE) biplot, Wrick’s ecovalence (Wi2 ), AMMI Stability Value (ASV) and Yield Stability Index (YSi) stable genotypes with high fruit yield were identified over the eight environments. The combined AMMI analysis of variance indicated that genotype main effect, environment and genotype-by-environment interaction effects showed variation of 19.83%, 63.07% and 17.10%, respectively for fruit yield. On the basis of different stability measures, VRO-112, VRO-110, Kashi Kranti, VROB178, AE-70 and VRO-108 were differentiated as high yielding and stable genotypes over the tested environments. This study will be helpful for selecting alkali tolerant okra parents for further breeding programme and recommending the suitable genotypes for alkalinity prone area

Groundnut is sensitive to Fe deficiency under alkaline and calcareous soils and exhibits iron deficiency chlorosis (IDC) causing significant reduction in growth and yield. Genotypes were assessed for IDC related traits such as visual chlorosis rating, SPAD chlorophyll meter reading, chlorophyll and active iron (Fe2+) content across five growth stages and also for productivity traits viz., plant height, number of primary branches, number of pods per plant, pod yield, shelling per cent, 100 seed weight and haulm yield. Comparison between Fe-supplemented and Fe-nonsupplemented condition for IDC related traits showed not much difference among IDC tolerant genotypes across all five growth stages, while significant differences among IDC susceptible genotypes were observed. Maximum reduction in pod yield was observed among IDC susceptible genotypes compared to IDC tolerant and moderately tolerant genotypes. However, recently released variety G 2- 52 with moderate tolerance to IDC and higher yield potential recorded higher pod yield both under Fe applied (1754 kgha–1) and non-applied conditions (1544 kgha–1).

Outliers are a common phenomenon when genotypes are evaluated over locations and years under field conditions and such outliers makes studying genotype-environment Interactions difficult. Robust-AMMI models which use a combination of robust fit and robust SVD approaches, denoted as ‘R-AMMI-RLM’ have been proposed to study GEI in presence of such outliers. Instead of ‘R-AMMI-RLM’ we propose a model which uses a combination of linear fit and robust SVD to study GEI in presence of outliers and we denote this model as ‘R-AMMI-LM’. Here we prove that ‘RAMMI-LM’ was superior over ‘R-AMMI-RLM’ as it recorded very low residual sum of squares and low RMSE values. Thus proposed, ‘R-AMMI-LM’ model could explain the GEI more precisely even in presence of outliers.

Stem characters such as stem solidness and stem carbohydrates (water soluble carbohydrates and non-structural carbohydrates estimated as fructan) play an important role in stabilizing grain yield in stressful environments. Ten wheat genotypes were screened for carbohydrate content (Water soluble sugars and fructan) in peduncle along with other stem parameters namely, stem solidness, grain growth rate and stem osmotic potential under irrigated and drought conditions. Data was analyzed for correlation among these parameters along with biomass and yield. The results of present study indicated that stress-tolerant genotype RIL-S1-38 and WH 1235 accumulated higher fructan content in stem and contributed in grain growth rate, reduced osmotic potential and further imparted drought tolerance. Clear differences in stem solidness and fructan content exhibited lesser grain yield reduction under drought condition.

Genomic Selection (GS) is the most prevalent method in today’s scenario to access the genetic merit of individual under study. It selects the candidates for next breeding cycle on the basis of its genetic merit. GS has successfully been used in various plant and animal studies in last decade. Several parametric statistical models have been proposed and being used successfully in various GS studies. However, performance of parametric methods becomes very poor when we have non additive kind of genetic architecture. In such cases, generally performance of non-parametric methods are quite satisfactory as these methods do not require strict statistical assumptions. This article presents comparative performance of few most commonly used non-parametric methods for complex genetic architecture i.e. non-additive, using simulated dataset generated at different level of heritability and varying combination of population size. Among several non-parametric methods, SVM outperformed across a range of genetic architecture.

This study was undertaken to identify new sources of resistance against downy mildew of cucumber caused by Pseudoperonospora cubensis [(Berk. and Cart.) Rostow]. Pot experiments were conducted with 16 accessions each of Cucumis sativus and C. hardwickii during the years 2017 and 2018 using 12 isolates of P. cubensis representing different agroclimatic zones of India. The accession, IC331627 from Dehradun, Uttarakhand showed plant disease index (PDI) ranging from 5.55-20.35 per cent with an average PDI of 11.56 and 11.87 per cent during the years, 2017 and 2018, respectively. Hence, IC331627 was identified to be resistant against the five isolates of P. cubesis (Pc12, Pc17, Pc19, Pc21 and Pc24) and moderately resistant against one isolate (Pc22). This resistant accession C. hardwickii (IC331627) could be utilized to develop mapping population to map genomic regions conferring the resistance to downy mildew in cucumber.

In the present study, 23 sorghum genotypes comprising 17 advanced mutant lines (M5) and six check varieties were evaluated for stability parameters over four locations during rabi 2017-18. Based on the ten morphological and yield traits, pooled ANOVA showed significant differences for the quantitative traits except for seed yield per plant. Mean sum of squares due to E+ (GxE) was significant for most of the characters except for days to flowering, and 100 seed weight. Environment component showed significant values for all traits. The GxE (linear) showed non-significant interaction for most of the characters in this study except for plant height, panicle length and seed yield. J-12 and J-3 mutants had mean value more than population mean and coefficient of regression near to unity and adapted to all situations.
