Analysis of Variability Parameters for Morphological and Agronomic Traits in Grain Amaranth (amaranthus Sp) Genotypes
Grain Amaranth is a very versatile pseudo-cereal crop and grown in a wide range of agro-climatic conditions (temperature 20-40oC, elevation 500-2500m amsl and rainfall 800 mm to 1500 mm). The genus Amaranthus consists of approximately 60 species out of which about 18 species are occurring in India. There are three major grain producing Amaranthus species, A. caudatus, A. cruentus and A. hypocho...
متن کاملGenetic studies for biochemical and quantitative characters in grain amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus L.)
Twenty six accessions of grain Amaranth (Amaranthus hypochondriacus L.) were evaluated for salient biochemical and quantitative traits particularly reference to chlorophyll a and b, total chlorophyll, phenol content, leaf moisture, leaf protein content, test weight and yield plant. Genetic divergence and association among these traits were analysed. Chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b, total chlorophy...
متن کاملPlant Population Influence on Yield and Agronomic Traits in ‘Plainsman’ Grain Amaranth*
Grain amaranth, a pseudo-cereal with a rich history as a source of food in Meso America, is an attractive alternative crop suitable to be produced in semi-arid conditions. Grain amaranth production in the United States was 1,800 ha in 1991 (Stallknecht and Schulz-Schaeffer 1991). Most amaranth production is located in the Great Plains, especially in Western Nebraska (Williams and Brenner 1995),...
متن کاملGenetic Variability Studies for Morphological and Yield Traits in Dolichos Bean (Lablab purpureus L.)
Thirty genotypes of Dolichos bean (Lablab purpureus) were evaluated to study the genetic variability on yield, yield contributing and related characters viz. days to 50% flowering, days to first pod set, days to maturity, number of pods per cluster, pod length, width of pod, weight of 10 green pods, number of single podded clusters per plant, number of pods per plant and protein content. The ra...
متن کاملAssessment of Antioxidant Activity, Grain and Oil Production of Amaranth (Amaranthus retroflexus L.) in Saline Conditions
Salt stress is one of the major factors limiting crop productivity worldwide. Grain amaranth is new crop with high yield potential and good nutrition value which can be a good substitute for salt-sensitive crops in saline areas. This research was conducted to evaluate different level of salinity and applied salinity stress at several growth stages on some morphological and physiological traits ...
