The rapid pace of climate change is adversely affecting crop yields, both quantitatively and qualitatively, with staple cereals requiring high inputs, posing ecological, economic, and nutritional risks. This shift contributes to a global concern known as ‘hidden hunger’, where micronutrient malnutrition has severe health repercussions, particularly in developing nations. The important nutrient deficiencies like zinc (Zn) in major food crops, posing a significant public health threat. In this context, pulse crops emerge as a promising solution within low-input farming systems, known for their suitability and nutritional richness. These crops can play a pivotal role in climate-resilient food systems. This review deals with the untapped potential of pulses as a crucial component in low-input food-production systems, emphasizing the need for zinc biofortification in pulses to sustain human nutrition.

A field experiment was conducted to study the effect of dose and time of imazethapyr on weed and yield in the summer season black gram. The predominant weed species in the experimental field were Eleusine indica, Amaranthus viridis, Commelina benghalensis, Alternanthera sessilis etc. The minimum weed population was observed with two-hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAS which was closely followed by imazethapyr @ 100 g a.i. ha-1 at 25 DAS and imazethapyr @ 75 g a.i. ha-1 at 15 DAS. Imazethapyr 100 g a.i. ha-1 at 25DAS recorded the pod length, number of seeds pod-1, test weight, harvest index, seed and stover yield. Application of imazethapyr @ 100 g a.i. ha-1 at 25 DAS gave a higher B:C ratio (1.03) as compared to two-hand weeding at 20 and 40 DAS.
通过田间试验研究了咪鲜胺的剂量和时间对夏季黑穗轴禾本科杂草和产量的影响。试验田中的主要杂草种类有荸荠、苋菜、贲门菜、泽兰等。在 20 和 40 DAS 期进行双手除草时,杂草数量最少,紧随其后的是在 25 DAS 期进行 100 g a.i. ha-1 吡嘧磺隆除草剂除草,以及在 15 DAS 期进行 75 g a.i. ha-1 吡嘧磺隆除草剂除草。在 25DAS 施用吡虫啉 100 g a.i. ha-1 时,豆荚长度、豆荚种子数、试验重量、收获指数、种子和秸秆产量均有所提高。与在 20 和 40 DAS 期进行双手除草相比,在 25 DAS 期施用吡虫啉 100 g a.i. ha-1 可获得更高的 B:C 比值(1.03)。

In the present study, a field experiment was conducted over two years to evaluate the efficacy and economic performance of imidazolinones. The combined application of imidazolinones with pendimethalin exhibited enhanced effectiveness in controlling the weed populations compared to their individual application. PRE application of pendimethalin + imazethapyr (Ready mix) at 1500 g ha-1, followed by one hoeing at 3-4 leaf stage, proved highly effective in suppressing the dominant weed flora and recorded higher growth parameters and significantly increased the seed yield of fenugreek. Moreover, it emerged as a profitable alternative to the current recommendation of weed control in fenugreek, which involves two hoeing sessions at 25 and 45 days after sowing (DAS).

Genetic variability is the most important factor for the success of any crop improvement program. Hence, the evaluation of germplasm has to be conducted as a preliminary step to study the extent of variability available in the germplasm and to identify suitable high-yielding genotypes that can be utilized in the crop improvement program. The present investigation was carried out to estimate genetic variability, heritability, and genetic advance for yield and yield contributing characters among seventy-nine diverse genotypes of mungbean for eleven quantitative traits. Significant differences were observed among genotypes for all eleven characters studied. The high degree of genetic variability along with high heritability and high genetic advance as percent of mean were recorded for seed yield per plant, number of pods per plant, harvest index, biological yield per plant, and plant height; which indicates that these characteristics were under the control of additive gene action and therefore, form the basis of selection for the mungbean improvement program.

In present study, 21 F1 hybrids derived from crossing between seven female genotypes and three male testers following a line × tester mating design were evaluated for analyzing the component of genetic variation and heterosis of yield contributing traits. The components of variances due to gca and sca revealed the predominance of non-additive gene action for biomass and harvest index. The average better parent heterosis (BPH) and standard heterosis (SH) for Biomass yield (BY) was 43.71 and 114.67, respectively, and the average BPH and SH for the Harvest index (HI) was -13.04 and -20.45, respectively. The higher magnitude of the BPH and SH recorded for BY indicated that the scope for increasing the HI in Rajmash is limited and that further increases in productivity have to come mainly through enhanced BY. The parent RR21-01 and GR 1 were good general combiners for biomass, TRCR 3, TRCR 2, SKAU-R-19 and RKR 1033 for harvest index. Cross combinations IPR-277- 19 × HUR recorded positively significant sca effect for BY and IPR-277-19 × GR, TRCR 3 × GR 1, TRCR 2 × GR 1, IPR-205-19 × HUR, IPR-277-19 × GR 1, SKAU-R-19 ×RKR 1033, RR-21-01 × HUR and RR-21-12 × GR 1 for HI. These results demonstrate that the selection of parents should not only be based on per se performance but also on combining ability and heterosis for achieving genetic improvement in Rajmash,
在本研究中,对 7 个雌性基因型和 3 个雄性测试者按照品系 × 测试者交配设计杂交产生的 21 个 F1 杂交种进行了评估,以分析产量贡献性状的遗传变异成分和异质性。gca 和 sca 的变异成分表明,生物量和收获指数的非加性基因作用占主导地位。生物量产量(BY)的平均较优亲本异交率(BPH)和标准异交率(SH)分别为 43.71 和 114.67,收获指数(HI)的平均较优亲本异交率(BPH)和标准异交率(SH)分别为 -13.04 和 -20.45。BY的BPH和SH值较高,表明Rajmash的HI提高空间有限,要进一步提高生产率,必须主要通过提高BY来实现。在生物量方面,亲本 RR21-01 和 GR 1 是良好的一般组合;在收获指数方面,TRCR 3、TRCR 2、SKAU-R-19 和 RKR 1033 是良好的一般组合。杂交组合 IPR-277- 19 × HUR 对 BY 有正显著的 sca 效应,IPR-277-19 × GR、TRCR 3 × GR 1、TRCR 2 × GR 1、IPR-205-19 × HUR、IPR-277-19 × GR 1、SKAU-R-19 ×RKR 1033、RR-21-01 × HUR 和 RR-21-12 × GR 1 对 HI 有正显著的 sca 效应。这些结果表明,要实现 Rajmash 的遗传改良,在选择亲本时不仅要看其本身的表现,还要看组合能力和异质性、

The experiment aimed to investigate the impact of polyethylene glycol (PEG) treatments, specifically 0% (control), 15% (PEG-I), and 20% (PEG-II), on various seed quality traits, proline content, and morpho-physiological traits at both the seed (9 days) and seedling stage (18 days) in five Lathyrus genotypes and to relate the ISSR markers based molecular characterization of these genotypes osmotic stress. The results unveiled substantial phenotypic and molecular diversity among the accessions concerning morpho-physiological and seed quality traits. Ratan variety exhibited promise as it demonstrated a higher germination percentage (G%) at 62.78±2.42% for PEG-I and 13.33±0.10% for PEG-II, along with a lower mean germination time (MGT) of 3.80±0.071 days for PEG-I and 7.33±0.16 days for PEG-II. P-24 showcased the highest seed vigour index-I (SVI-I) at 872.06±27.02 for PEG-I, whereas Nirmal recorded the highest SVI-I at 80.03±8.53 for PEG-II. Notably, Nirmal displayed the lowest proline content, expressed as μmol per gram of fresh weight (52.45±6.27 units for PEG-I and 111.37±4.75 units for PEG-II) at the seed stage. For the seedling stage, Ratan exhibited the lowest proline content, expressed as μmol per gram of fresh weight (14.18±1.09 units for PEG-I and 10.67±0.851 units for PEG-II). Prateek demonstrated higher seedling length (42.00±1.44 cm for PEG-I and 45.88±0.30 cm for PEG-II), as well as root length (14.11±0.84 cm for PEG-I and 21.29±1.59 cm). Principal component analysis (PCA) highlighted that the most influential variables contributing to the highest variability in the PCA included SVI-I, MGT, and seedling length. Molecular characterization employing ISSR markers resulted in three clusters: CI (Ratan), CII (Pusa-24 and Mahateora), and CIII (Prateek and Nirmal), based on the genetic similarity coefficient. These genotypes exhibit the potential to be recommended and utilized in breeding programs for developing drought-tolerant Lathyrus germplasm.

In the present study, the influence of phosphorus and bio-fertilizers was investigated on the productivity and profitability of summer black gram. The experimental study revealed that among the phosphorus levels, the application of 50 kg P ha-1 recorded significantly the high seed (1108 Kg ha-1) and stover (2616 Kg ha-1) yield. However, among the bio-fertilizers, t h e application of phosphate solubilizing bacteria + Rhizobium resulted in the highest seed (1116 Kg ha-1) and stover yield of chickpea (2655 Kg ha-1). Application of 50 kg ha-1 phosphorus and combined treatment of phosphate solubilizing bacteria + Rhizobium incurred the highest cost of cultivation (₹ 30,421 ha-1), highest gross return (₹ 1,00,015 ha-1), net return (₹ 69,594 ha-1) and benefit-cost ratio (₹ 2.29). It can be concluded that the application of 50 kg ha-1 phosphorus and treatment of phosphate solubilizing bacteria+ Rhizobium in chickpea cultivation may be profitable.

Legumes have been used as an entry point to improve productivity, food security in terms of nutrition and availability aspect and income for smallholder farmers. The findings reveal that the growth in the area of soybean, tur and gram was significantly increased and the production growth in all the selected crops was significantly increased. Productivity growth was significantly increased in gram on the other hand it was stagnant in case of soybean. The high variability in WSPs in almost all the selected crops indicated that all the crops were volatile in terms of prices and also that large variability in MSP were observed. Significantly positive growth rates were observed for FHP and MSP of all the selected crops.

Mungbean yellow mosaic virus (MYMV) is an important viral disease across mungbean growing areas and causes severe yield loss in mungbean especially during the spring/summer season. The present study was envisaged to identify MYMV donors in mungbean. A total of 104 mungbean genotypes were evaluated for MYMV under natural field conditions during summer, 2019. The results revealed that MYMV severity ranged from 0% to 100% among mungbean genotypes. Out of 104 genotypes, 32 genotypes were completely free from MYMV, two genotypes exhibited resistant reaction (R), 22 genotypes were found moderately resistant (MR) and the remaining 48 genotypes were susceptible to highly susceptible reaction to MYMV. Thus, the identified 34 promising lines of mungbean were further evaluated against MYMV along with susceptible check DGGV-2 under epiphytotic conditions during the summer of 2020 and 2021. Pooled data of MYMV over the two years indicated that six genotypes namely, IPM-1205-2, IPM-2-14, IPM-410-3, IPM14-10, IPM-205-7 and IPM-1604-1 were showed stability for MYMV resistance. These identified stable resistant genotypes will serve as potential donors for the mungbean breeding program to develop resistance cultivars.

Thus, the identified 34 promising lines of mungbean were further evaluated against MYMV along with susceptible check DGGV-2 under epiphytotic conditions during the summer of 2020 and 2021. Pooled data of MYMV over the two years indicated that six genotypes namely, IPM-1205-2, IPM-2-14, IPM-410-3, IPM14-10, IPM-205-7 and IPM-1604-1 were showed stability for MYMV resistance. These identified stable resistant genotypes will serve as potential donors for the mungbean breeding program to develop resistance cultivars.","PeriodicalId":202323,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Food Legumes","volume":"62 48","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140972152","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}

Seventy-one genotypes of desi chickpea including released varieties were evaluated over two years under normal and late conditions. The selection index based on discriminant function analysis was used to determine the phenotypic value of different characters in selection. Seed yield and its five contributing traits were used to construct the index under normal and late-sown conditions. The results indicated that the efficiency of the index increased with the inclusion of a greater number of traits. The best selection index for the normal sown condition was observed for three characters including date of maturity, reproductive phase duration, and number of pods per plant in E1 as well as with days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, and number of pods per plant in E3 . On the other hand, under late sown conditions (E2 and E4 ), four characters seed yield per plant, reproductive phase duration, number of pods per plant, and 100-seed weight had the best selection index. This study showed that the selection of these characters may be considered for better genetic gain for higher seed yield under any of these conditions.
