Merrill) genotypes were studied in three groups. The objectives of the research work to evaluate the diversity of soybean genotypes at morpho-physiological traits and plant architecture linked to higher yield and their correlation among the traits. Negative and significant correlations were observed between HI and CGR, RGR, NAR, and biological yield in early duration group. However CGR of medium duration and long duration group was positively correlated with RGR, NAR, and biological yield and negatively correlation with test weight in (Medium group). HI was positively correlated with seed yield and test weight in long duration genotypes. The correlation of morpho-physiological traits showed positive correlation of plant height with HI and test weight. In yield traits negative and significant correlation was observed between chlorophyll (SPAD) value and biological yield. Genotype KDS 775 (Early) RSC10-30 (Early) NRC123 (Medium) and PS1570 (Long) have higher HI amongst their group. Genotype RVS 2010-1 (Early), KDS-975 (Early),RSC10-04 (Medium), NRC 117 (Medium), JS 20-94 (Medium) and JS 97-52 (c)( long) and RSC 10-29 (Long) have shown significantly higher seed yield amongst their respective groups.

Gums are metabolic by-products of plant tissues either in normal course or often as a result of disease or injury to the bark or wood of certain plants and it can not be re-entered with plant system. Dhawda (Anogeissuslatifolia) also known as Gum ghatti is the dried exudates tree belonging to family Combretaceae. The commercial tapping of Dhawda is done by blazing, peeling, or by making deep cuts at the base of the bole using an axe. These method soften lead to the death of the tapped trees. On account of crude tapping methods and over exploitation the population of Dhawda trees has markedly declined. The harvesting method currently used is traditional and injurious due to which often obtained inferior quality of products. Hence, the study was undertaken in ICAR Network Project for research work at village Khargadih, district Raipur (Chhattisgarh) to develop the scientific tapping techniquefor sustainable harvesting in major gum producing tree of Chhattisgarh state during year 2015. The various chemical methods are used for tapping purpose. Chemical tapping method using ethephon and IAA injected by battery operated drill machine. However, temperature and relative humidity also play significant role in gum exudation. Theethephon @ 2.34% in 4 ml in two consecutive doses in 45-60 days intervals at high temperature in month of April toJune was found significantly effective for maximum gum production. The process of gummosis related to biotic and abiotic stress of tree plant and plays significant role in production of biopolymers (gum/resin). Therefore, the physiological tool was used to impose artificial stress via various concentration of ethephon (slow releasing substance of ethylene) as gum enhancer in stem of dhawda to find out the mechanism of gummosis and compared with mechanical tapping method. The biological (anatomical), studies were done via taking the sample of soft (sapwood) after injecting the gum enhancer ethephon at different time intervals. It can observed that the application of ethephon enhance the process of gummosis, due to formation of gum duct. The gum duct formation was observed in histological analysis of bark section within 2-4 hrs of ethephon treatment in dhawda. The histological changes indicated that the gum ducts arises schizogenously by the formation of intercellar spaces among a group of axial parenchyma cells in dhawda.

We examined the effect of chlorpyrifos, which is used to crop against fleas, insects, termites, pests and mosquitoes to determine whether it adversely affect ashwagandha plant. The experiment was conducted at Indian Institute of Soil Science (ICAR), Bhopal (MP) during 2015-2016, comprising four concentrations of pesticide chlorpyrifos viz. 0%, 0.25%, 0.75% and 1.25%. The commencement of foliar treatment applied on vegetative phase i.e., 30, 45 and 60 days after transplanting on ashwagandha. The biochemical characteristics of ashwagandha were recorded after various doses of pesticide treatment application. The peroxidase and catalase activity decreased with increasing level of pesticide treatment in ashwagandha. Chlorophyll a content and chlorophyll b content decreased with higher dose of pesticide treatment in the experimental crops.

Gum karaya (Sterculia urens Roxb.) is a dry deciduous tree belonging to the family Sterculiaceae distributed throughout India and Chhattisgarh. Karaya gum is the dried exudate obtained from trees of Sterculia species. Karaya gum is predominately used for many industries such as petroleum and gas, textiles, paper and pulp, pharmaceuticals, medicine and several other products. The commercial tapping of karaya is done by blazing, peeling, or by making deep cuts at the base of the bole using an axe or a cycle. These methods often lead to the death of the tapped trees. On account of crude tapping methods and over exploitation the population of karaya trees has markedly declined. The harvesting methods currently used are traditional and injurious due to which often obtained inferior quality of products. Hence, the study was undertaken in ICAR Network Project to develop the scientific tapping technique for sustainable harvesting in major gum producing tree of Chhattisgarh state to enhance the livelihood of the rural areas as well as to protect the plant and generate the revenue of the government. The various chemical methods are used for tapping purpose. Chemical tapping method using ethephon and IAA injected by battery operated drill machine. However, temperature and relative humidity also play significant role in gum exudation. The ethephon @ 3.9% in 4 ml in two consecutive doses in 45-60 days intervals at high temperature in month of April to June was found significantly effective for maximum gum production during both the year 2015 and 2016. The physiochemical properties of exudated gum were investigated and gum was found to be mild acidic, least soluble in cold water but absorb water and swell, soluble in hot water but insoluble in organic solvent.

Plant growth substances promote more number of quality corm production in gladiolus. Hence, the present study was conducted to study the impact of plant growth substances in gladiolus at Research cum Instructional Farm, Indira Gandhi Krishi Vishwavidyalaya, Raipur (C.G.). The five gladiolus cultivars i.e., Saffron, Summer shine yellow, American beauty, Candyman and White prosperity were tested with plant growth substances viz., GA3 @ 100 ppm + Vermicompost @ 80 g/pot, CCC @ 500 ppm, Humic acid @ 0.1% + Chicken manure @ 10 g/ pot, Salicylic acid @ 150 ppm and control (distilled water) in Factorial Completely Randomized Design with three replications during Rabi season 2016-17. The plant growth substances were sprayed with the help of a sprayer and the organic manures (Vermicompost, Chicken manure) was given by soil application at two, four, six leaves and flowering stage. It was observed that the experimental cultivars were exhibited genotypic variation regarding corm and cormel number, size, weight and diameters. The cultivar American beauty having maximum number of cormels whereas, cultivar White prosperity having significantly highest corm weight, corm diameter and cormel diameter and cultivar Saffron recorded minimum corm weight and corm diameter in all the tested cultivars. The treatment CCC @ 500 ppm was significantly improved the yield parameters and treatment GA3 @ 100 ppm along with Vermicompost @ 80 g/ pot was found inferior among all the treatments.
