Abstract Under the INCOMPASS project, state of art eddy‐covariance based surface flux measurement systems were installed at eight locations across India. These sites cover different climatic conditions, land use and cover, water management practices. Here we present initial analysis measurements taken seven mainly focusing on year 2017, quantifying for first time remarkable contrasts in evaporative fraction seasons, climate zones practices Indian subcontinent. With exception Jaisalmer which...
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is widely grown in sub-tropical and tropical areas and, as such, it exposed to heatstress especially during the grain filling period (GFP). Global warming has further affected its production productivity these heat-stressed environments. We examined effects of on 18 morpho-physiological yield-related traits 96 bread accessions. Heat stress decreased crop growth GFP, consequently reduced morphological delayed sown crop. A low heat susceptibility index high...
Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the world's most important staple food crop providing 20% global energy and dietary proteins. It widely grown in sub-tropical tropical areas as such exposed to heat-stress especially at grain filling period (GFP). Global warming has further affected its production productivity these heat-stressed environments. We examined effect on 18 morpho-physiological yield-related traits 96 bread accessions. Heat susceptibility index (HSI...
Silivipastoral systems having trees and grasses play an important role in providing fodder for sustainable livestock production arid region, prevent soil erosion, conserve moisture add organic matter to soil. A field experiment was initiated on the silvipastoral system different species i.e., Hardwickia binata, Ailanthus excelsa Colophospermum mopane association with Cenchrus ciliaris grass at ICAR-CAZRI Jodhpur, India year 2003. Observations growth, biomass carbon content were recorded...
Abstract Indigofera oblongifolia Forssk. locally known as ‘Goilia or Jhil’, is an important underutilized leguminous browse shrub for small ruminants in hot arid region of India and traditionally utilized its medicinal value. Its irregular patchy distribution was observed depression rocky areas, bunds farmer fields along the on road sides Jaisalmer Pali district during collection. Soil samples collected from have high level pH electrical conductivity compared to which indicates suitability...
An investigation was carried out on the diversity of insect pests mustard and influence weather parameters.Survey surveillance data were recorded from 10 fields under cultivation located in a radius 80 km Jaisalmer district during Rabi 2019-20 2020-21.Mustard these grown either as rainfed (three fields) or irrigated (four with tube well three canal water) crop.The one site also used to find correlation between aphid population parameters.Data different insects infesting crop, namely aphid,...
Abstract Species of Indigofera are important source forage particularly in hot arid region and temperate areas. I . oblongifolia is one the underutilized leguminous browse shrub for small ruminants India traditionally utilize its medicinal value. Its irregular patchy distribution was observed depression rocky areas, bunds farmer fields along on road sides Jaisalmer Pali district during collection. Soil samples collected from have high level pH electrical conductivity as compared to which...
Abstract Grewia tenax locally known as ‘ Gangerun ’, is an important multipurpose underutilized shrub and potentially threaten species of the Thar Desert India. Owing to its importance, naturally available germplasm was collected evaluated for sustainable utilization in future. Data on individual mother plant, seed characters soil profile were investigated. Habitat occurrence G. found patches with dominant association Euphorbia caducifolia across four districts western Rajasthan. Individual...
Abstract Cordia sinensis , locally known as ‘Goondi’ in India, is an underexploited multipurpose fruit species found hot arid regions that well adapted to drought, salt and conditions. The present study was undertaken collect samples from different locations the Kachchh region of Gujarat, determine their field establishment for characterization, conservation utilization. maximum distribution observed Bhuj (45%) Mandvi (25%). Field boundaries (35%) scrub forests (30%) had greater frequencies,...
Grewia tenax (Forssk.) Fiori. belongs to the family Tiliaceae, an underutilized shrub in arid and semi-arid regions. The maximum distribution of G. population was recorded Nakhtarana (38%), Bhuj (32%), Mandvi (15%). Morpho-physiological trait variation germplasm viz., plant height ranged from 70 162.4 cm, canopy spread 79.7 175.8 cm2, leaf area 3.1 8. 3 relative water content 33.3 72.4% temperature depression 0.6 7.0ºC. fodder traits such as above-ground biomass (AGB) varied 0.4 2.9...
A study on the utilisation of conserved soil moisture and effect sowing time productivity taramira (Eruca sativa Mill.) was conducted during rabi 2021-22 at ICAR-CAZRI-RRS Jaisalmer, Rajasthan. The three treatments, i.e. T1 (sown in last week September) utilized with one irrigation, T2 October) T3 November)- two irrigations, taken this study. Yield attributes silique/branch, seed/siliqua seed yield were significantly influenced by different treatments. maximum recorded (34.92; 20.35; 0.95...
Bread wheat is grown in the sub-tropical and tropical regions world-wide. Terminal-heat stress a major abiotic global warming due to climate change has negatively impacted its production productivity. We evaluated 96 accessions of bread germplasm, which included 79 indigenous 17 exotic collections, by investigating 16 morpho-physiological yield-related traits during two successive Rabi seasons 2018-19 2019-20 under non-stressed heat-stressed (as delayed sown crop) environments. Heat...
