Rust diseases are considered to be responsible for significant qualitative and quantitative damages on wheat. However, the severity of rust diseases can be managed through development of resistant lines. The present study was aimed to scrutinize existing wheat germplasm against leaf rust and stripe rust of wheat. For this purpose 30 wheat genotypes were assessed for disease resistance under artificial inoculation conditions and 16 genotypes were evaluated under natural conditions at Nuclear Institute for Agriculture (NIA), Tandojam, Pakistan. The disease severity ratings were taken according to Cobs’scale. The studies revealed that wheat genotypes were markedly differed in their resistance to leaf and stripe rust. Among the tested wheat lines / varieties, 6 were rated as resistant, 6 moderately resistant, 13 showed MRMS type response, 2 showed moderately susceptible reaction, 3 lines/varieties displayed susceptible response against leaf rust under artificial conditions. Moreover, under natural conditions 1 was rated as resistant, 2 showed MRMS type response against leaf rust and all were found resistant or immune against stripe rusts under both the conditions. Hence, it was suggested that resistant genotypes evaluated from these studies can be deployed in the future breeding strategies to evolve the resistant varieties against leaf & stripe rusts of wheat

The present study is an attempt to forecast the wheat production in Sindh province of Pakistan using sophisticated statistical techniques. The secondary data regarding area, production and yield of wheat crop were collected for the last thirty years (1984-85 to 2013-14) for estimation and forecasting purposes using time series techniques such as moving averages and exponential smoothing. The estimates for three, five and seven-years moving averages for area were found to have a minimum value of 849.87,863.04, and 890.09 hectares and maximum value of 1129.4,1111.58, and 1109.6 hectares respectively. Likewise, for production, these estimates were found as 2065.57, 2117.7, 2154.3 and 3917.50, 3740.8, 3469.4 tons respectively. So, for as the yield is concerned, the above-mentioned estimates for minimum and maximum were found as 2071.7, 2107.8, 2121 and 3574.0, 3520, and 3414 respectively. Based on the findings of the present study, it is concluded that during the last thirty years the area, production and yield under wheat cultivation showed an increasing trend. In case of forecasting, the area and production under wheat cultivation was increase in the coming year, but the yield under wheat cultivation was considerably decreased due to shortage of irrigation water.

Bread wheat is an important food crop of world and Pakistan. An experiment was conducted in winter wheat growing season to assess yield and yield related traits of newly evolved wheat genotypes. The 16 wheat genotypes includes 14 advanced lines viz., CIM-04-5, CIM-04-21, CIM-04-3, C7-98-11, 5-02, V2-10-12, CIM-03-2, C2-98- 6, 6-12, V3-10-9, C6-98-5, V3-10-32, C2-98-8, V2-10-21 and 2 local checks NIA Sunhari and Kiran 95 were tested. Experimental design was laid out in RCBD with 3 replicates. Mean square for genotypes showed high significantly differences for most of agro-morphological characters. Mean and range of all wheat genotypes for all the traits indicated a considerable variability between genotypes. Mean performance for the trait grain yield showed that newly developed genotypes C2-98-8, CIM-04-21, V3-10-32 and CIM-04-3 produced higher grain yield (3 to 3.25 kg plot-1) than both the contesting check varieties. High significantly and positively correlation of the plot yield to thousand grain weight (0.41**), biomass (0.41**) and harvest index (0.86***) with grain yield were found. It indicated that by improving these three traits, we can significantly improve grain yield. Selected genotypes and traits can be used in breeding program for wheat improvement.
面包小麦是世界和巴基斯坦重要的粮食作物。在冬小麦生长季节对新进化的小麦基因型进行了产量及产量相关性状的评价试验。16个小麦基因型包括14个高级品系(CIM-04-5、CIM-04-21、CIM-04-3、C7-98-11、5-02、V2-10-12、CIM-03-2、C2-98- 6、6-12、V3-10-9、C6-98-5、V3-10-32、C2-98-8、V2-10-21)和2个地方检验品(Sunhari和Kiran 95)。试验设计为RCBD，设3个重复。各基因型的均方根差异均极显著。所有小麦性状的基因型平均值和变异范围表明，基因型之间存在较大差异。籽粒产量的平均表现表明，新开发的基因型C2-98-8、CIM-04-21、V3-10-32和CIM-04-3的籽粒产量(3 ~ 3.25 kg - plot-1)高于两个对照品种。小区产量与千粒重(0.41**)、生物量(0.41**)、收获指数(0.86***)呈极显著正相关。说明通过改良这3个性状，可以显著提高籽粒产量。所选基因型和性状可用于小麦改良育种计划。

In modern-day agriculture, we are well aware of the utilization of artificial fertilizers in the soil to supply major soil nutrients for plant growth and development. The most common used nutrients in agroecosystem are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), and sulfur (S). These fertilizers cause an increase in crop production, but the excess use of these fertilizers has several health hazards for the plants and animals feeding on them. Presently the consumer's preference has been shifted from synthetic fertilizer-based food to organic food. This paper aims to review the results of the research work done in the past few decays on the environment detoxification and beneficial effects of Azolla (aquatic fern) on plants and soil health. Hopefully, it will help the collaborative research on this “green gold” in the future.Azolla fixes the free-living atmospheric N as they have symbiotic Cyanobacterium Anabaena Azolla. Azolla adds organic matter and provides natural mulch to the soil because of these benefits is known as bio-fertilizer. Azolla remediates industrial and sewage water by accumulating heavy metals in their body and plays an active role in the reclamation of salt-affected soil by accumulating heavy metals and salts and by increasing the soil organic matter

Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is the most important nutritive pulse crop which is cultivated throughout the world. A field experiment was conducted in order to study the effect of sulphur on growth and yield of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) under rice chickpea cropping system. A commercial chickpea variety DG-89 was used for this study under five treatments T1 = 36-72 kg NP ha־¹ + 0 kg S ha־¹ (Control), T2 = 36-72 kg NP ha־¹ + 20 kg S ha־¹, T3 = 36-72 kg NP ha־¹ + 40 kg S ha־¹, T4 = 36-72 kg NP ha־¹ + 60 kg S ha־¹ and T5 = 36-72 kg NP ha־¹ + 80 kg S ha־¹. The results of the study showed that the application of 36-72 kg NP ha־¹ + 40 kg S ha־¹, resulted maximum plant height, more pods plant-1, higher number of branches plant-1, maximum seed index 1000 grain weight and more grain yield over control. The maximum nitrogen and phosphorous content in chickpea were noted due to S application @ 36-72 kg NP ha-1+ 40 kg S ha-1. It is concluded that for better growth and yield of chickpea sulphur application @ 40 kg S ha-1 should be included in the fertilization program of chickpea along with recommended NP (36-72 kg NP ha-1) under rice chickpea cropping system
鹰嘴豆(Cicer arietinum L.)是世界上最重要的营养豆类作物。为研究水稻鹰嘴豆种植制度下硫对鹰嘴豆生长和产量的影响，进行了田间试验。以商品鹰嘴豆品种DG-89为研究对象，采用5个处理，T1 = 36-72 kg NP ha + 0 kg S ha +对照，T2 = 36-72 kg NP ha + 20 kg S ha + 1, T3 = 36-72 kg NP ha + 40 kg S ha + 1, T4 = 36-72 kg NP ha + 60 kg S + 1, T5 = 36-72 kg NP + 80 kg S + 1。结果表明，施用36 ~ 72 kg NP + 40 kg S，可获得最高株高、最大荚果数、最大分枝数、最大千粒重和最高籽粒产量。鹰嘴豆氮磷含量最高是在36 ~ 72 kg NP hm -1+ 40 kg S hm -1处理下。综上所述，为提高鹰嘴豆的生长和产量，水稻鹰嘴豆种植制度下，鹰嘴豆施肥方案中应施用40 kg S hm -1的硫，同时推荐NP (36-72 kg NP hm -1)

Wheat considered to be the most important among all cereal crops, is grown across various agro-ecological zones around the globe. It is the main staple food playing a prominent role in the economy of the country as well as in the cropping system. The present study was conducted to estimate genotypic correlations among morphological traits and yield using 50 accessions of diploid wheat including 2 parents and 48 RILs at F7:8 stage to determine direct as well as indirect effects. The results presented here showed that generally the coefficients of genotypical correlation (rg) depicted higher values in comparison to the coefficients of phenotypic correlation (rp). Among the morphological traits contributing to the grain yield, genotypic as well as phenotypic coefficients of correlation have been evaluated. All the traits displayed positive correlation with each other except emergence percentage (EP) that depicted negative interaction with booting time (BT), flowering time (FT) and heading time (HT) phenotypically. Highest estimates of direct effect i.e., 2.1217 on grain yield have been counted for booting time however, maximum indirect effect counted on grain yield was for heading time via booting time. Therefore, booting time can be successfully employed as an effective trait in the breeding programs focused on increasing wheat yield.

The present study was conducted to estimate genotypic correlations among morphological traits and yield using 50 accessions of diploid wheat including 2 parents and 48 RILs at F7:8 stage to determine direct as well as indirect effects. The results presented here showed that generally the coefficients of genotypical correlation (rg) depicted higher values in comparison to the coefficients of phenotypic correlation (rp). Among the morphological traits contributing to the grain yield, genotypic as well as phenotypic coefficients of correlation have been evaluated. All the traits displayed positive correlation with each other except emergence percentage (EP) that depicted negative interaction with booting time (BT), flowering time (FT) and heading time (HT) phenotypically. Highest estimates of direct effect i.e., 2.1217 on grain yield have been counted for booting time however, maximum indirect effect counted on grain yield was for heading time via booting time. Therefore, booting time can be successfully employed as an effective trait in the breeding programs focused on increasing wheat yield.","PeriodicalId":197597,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Research in Plant Sciences","volume":"47 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120998684","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rice Bacterial Leaf Blight (BLB) is considered the most imperative disease among various dangerous maladies of rice in Pakistan. There is no any reliable source of resistance against this disease. Moreover, pathogen has a vast diversity in its population. So, first and most important step for its control is pathogen identification and characterization. Therefore, present studies were carried out for surveillance of disease and to collect disease specimens from Hyderabad and Tando-Muhammad Khan (TMK) Districts. Associated pathogen was isolated from collected samples by direct plating method. Fourteen cultures were purified by streaking method and were characterized on the basis of colony morphology, cell morphology and gram staining. The colonies were found to be large, medium and small. Their shapes were filamentous, irregular and circular. They were found to be raised, undulate, entire and convex showing pale yellow, yellow, off white, reddish and creamy color and surface of most of the colonies was observed to be smooth.
