Research was carried out to estimate the levels of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin that may be found in some heat tolerant chili pepper genotypes determine degree pungency as well percentage content each analyzed peppers. A sensitive, precise, specific ultra fast liquid chromatographic (UFLC) system used for separation, identification quantitation capsaicinoids extraction solvent acetonitrile. The method validation parameters, including linearity, precision, accuracy recovery, yielded good...

High temperature tolerance is an important component of adaptation to arid and semiarid cropping environment in chili pepper. Two experiments were carried out study the genetic variability among pepper for heat morphophysiological traits estimate heritability advance expected from selection. There was a highly significant variation genotypes response high (CMT), photosynthesis rate, plant height, disease incidence, fruit length, weight, number fruits, yield per plant. At 5% selection...

Experiments were carried out to study the mechanisms for heat tolerance in chili pepper ( Capsicum annuum ). To assess these mechanisms, six genotypes evaluated cellular membrane thermostability (CMT) and HSP70 gene expression. The plants grown an experimental plant growth chamber. mean value of CMT indicates that integrity was not damaged by high temperature treatment (50 °C) most genotypes. classified as follows: heat-tolerant (greater than 60%), moderately tolerant (30% susceptible (less...

Studies on genotypic and phenotypic correlations among characters of crop plants are useful in planning, evaluating setting selection criteria for the desired a breeding program. The present study aimed to estimate correlation coefficients yield attributed work out direct indirect effects yield-related per plant using path coefficient analysis. Twenty-six genotypes chili pepper were laid randomized complete block design with three replications.Yield showed positive highly significant (P ≤...

Backcrossing together with simple sequence repeat marker strategy was adopted to improve popular Malaysian chilli Kulai (Capsicum annuum L.) for heat tolerance. The use of molecular markers in backcross breeding and selection contributes significantly overcoming the main drawbacks such as increase linkage drag time consumption, ancient manual approach (conventional), speeds up genome recovery recurrent parent. introgress shock protein gene(s) from AVPP0702 (C. L.), which are heat-tolerant,...

Assessment of the different desirable characters among chili genotypes has expanded effective selection for crop improvement. Identification genetically superior parents is important in assortment best to develop new hybrids.This study was done assess hereditary assorted variety selected Capsicum annuum based on their morphophysiological and yield traits two planting seasons. The biochemical properties, capsaicinoid content (capsaicin dihydrocapsaicin), total phenolics antioxidant action...

Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are primarily found in plants stem, roots, and other organs play significant roles tolerance to several abiotic stresses. Plants synthesize a discrete set of LEA response drought stress. In this study, the expression patterns genes were investigated two advanced mutant rice genotypes subjected stress condition different physiological traits including photosynthetic rate, leaf chlorophyll content, photosystem II (PSII) photochemical efficiency (...

This study evaluated subsequent effects of glycerin on productive performance, egg quality, and hatching traits in Japanese quail. A total 200 birds was arranged according to a completely randomized design into 5 treatment groups having replicates 8 each (6 females 2 males). Treatments consisted levels glycerin, i.e., 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10% the control group. Birds were fed with different during rearing period 6 wk their observed. Data collected regarding performance for 16 wk; however, quality...

Forty-two accessions of eggplant were screened against Ralstonia solanacearum in screen-house environments. This was followed by an assessment the genetic diversity 42 successions originating from Bangladesh, China, Thailand and Malaysia, accomplished exploring SSR markers for germplasm characterisation. Five selected resistant genotypes used as a rootstock further assessed with UPMSE16 strain subsequent trial. The pathogenicity test based on area under disease progress curve (AUDPC)...

A study was conducted under irrigation during dry season at the Katsina State Irrigation Site, Ajiwa. The aim of experiment to enhance productivity garlic through choice appropriate levels nitrogenous fertilizer and suitable cultivar which maximizes yield. consisted two varieties (ex-kofa ex-sokoto) four nitrogen (0, 50, 100, 150 kgN/ha). They were arranged in a randomized complete block design three replications. variety ex-sokoto found superior ex-kofa with respect plant height, number...

Eggplant is an essential vegetable crop that rich in health-related compounds, and the content of these compounds can be increased through grafting. It was reported grafting with vigorous wild relatives’ rootstocks improve eggplant’s fruit quality. The study conducted to investigate yield, composition physicochemical traits Solanum melongena ME, CE, NE TE scions grafted on ST, SM SI. results show a notable graft success (100%) recorded (TE/ST) self-grafted (TE/TE) plants using cleft...

Field experiment was conducted with the objective to determine effect of inorganic fertilizer on soil properties, growth and yield maize at Teaching Research Farm, Federal University Agriculture, Makurdi, Southern Guinea Savanna Zone Nigeria, during 2017 2018 cropping seasons. The experimental treatments consisted 0, 75, 150 300 kg ha-1 NPK laid out in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) replicated thrice. Soil samples were collected from plough layer 0-15 cm before after for each...

Research on phenotypic and genotypic associations between traits of eggplants provide valuable insights into the intricate dynamics breeding programs. By understanding relationships different traits, breeders can effectively plan, evaluate, establish selection criteria to cultivate desired characteristics in eggplant. The aim this experiment was determine correlation coefficients, both genotypic, among various characters related yield analyse direct indirect effects these per plant using...
