Study Design: Random Complete Block Design with two replications. Place and duration of study: The study was done in Vegetable Experimental Field of ICAR-Central Institute of Temperate Horticulture, Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, India from 2017-18 to 2018-19. Methodology: The germplasm comprising breeding lines and landraces as checks was sown and then transplanted at different times of the year to evaluate for leaf yield potential at edible maturity stage. The final yield for each genotype was calculated by summing up all pickings. Critical differences among genotypes for total leaf yield were calculated from ANOVA using OPSTAT online tool for one factor analysis. Results: Considering the average performance of two years in terms of leaf yield in tone per hectare, NW-Sa...

The experiment was laid out in RCBD with nine treatment combinations replicated three times. The treatments comprised of organic manures viz., farm yard manure, sheep manure, vermicompost, mustard cake and two types of bio-fertilizers namely Azospirillum and PSB, including RFD (recommended fertilizer dose) as control. Results revealed that growth parameters like plant height (27.18, 27.44 and 27.48 cm), weight of leaf blade (1.13, 2.55 and 3.54 g), weight of leaf petiole (0.48, 0.50 and 0.63 g), seedling emergence per cent (97.68 %), seedling root length (9.09 cm), seedling shoot length (6.19 cm) and seedling vigour index (1492.55) were highest in the treatment in which vermicompost @ 3 tonnes ha-1 + biofertilizers @ 5 kg ha-1 was applied. Lowest values for growth paramet...

There are different types of cabbage depending upon shape, size, and color. It is a highly crosspollinated crop where heterosis in F1 hybrid progeny has been exploited so largely in developing countries too. Due to high yield, strong disease resistance, wide adaptability, good quality, and uniform economic characters. The rate of conversion from open pollinated varieties to hybrid varieties and seed replacement ratio is very high in this crop. There are different temperature requirements for fresh vegetable and seed production purposes. The self-incompatibility and male sterility systems are present in the crop, which facilitates easy and cheaper hybrid seed production. For the successful seed production program we need suitable production area, congenial environment, and stable parents. The present review deals with the molecular approaches and biotechnology tools for the ...

It has become an important regimen due to its consequential role in medical and nutritional sciences. It is an interdisciplinary science that amalgamates the information from physiology, pathology, genetics, molecular biology, and nutrition to establish the effects of ingested nutrients on expression and regulation of genes. The ultimate aim of nutrigenomics is to ascertain the nutritional requirement of an individual in accordance with genetic makeup. Moreover, it aims to purvey treatment in the management of certain ailments having a dietary role based on individual’s genomic profile. Therefore, vast research in the field of nutritional genomics is a dire need to make people aware regarding their health and diet relationship. Here, we have given an overview of nutrigenomics coupled with novel technologies to produce utilitarian information for health professionals and researchers by divulging certa...
