Genetic Analysis of Heterosis and Combining Ability for Yield and Yield Components in Indian Mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern and Coss.]

Ravindra Kumar

Abstract

A field experiment was conducted during Kharif season of 2015 at the Research cum Instructional Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur to evaluate the effect of foliar nutrition on economics of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] under Vertisols of Chhattisgarh plains.The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications.The results revealed that application of RDF + spray of DAP @ 2 percent at pod initiations stages of crop growth resulted significantly higher uptake of nutrients N, P, K, and also positive effect on micronutrients and economics compared to the application of RDF + Water spray at pod initiation stage and RDF.
