application of plantbreeding🪁🦄 Flashcards
sonalika and kalyan sona [1963]
high yielding and disease resistant intro all over wheat growing belt
icar new delhi
indian council of agri research
irri manilla PH- produce high yield variety of ir-8 and ir-24 varieties
int. rice research insst.
1960-2000 wheat prod.inc from
rice prod. inc from
11 m ton to 75 m tonn
35 m tonn to 89.5 m tonn
better yielding semi dwarf varieties rice
jaya and ratna
saccharum barberi
saccharum officinarum
north- poor yield sugar
thicker stems high sugar
hybrid maize, jowar,bajra [millets]
due to hybrid breeding led to development of several high yielding var. resistant to h20 stress
crop losses can due to diseases can be
20-30%
diseases- fungi[rusts]
- bacteria - viruses
brown rust of wheat,red rotof sugarcane, late bligt of potato
black rot of crucifere
tmv and turnip virus

resistance to ymv in bhindi [abelmoschus esculentus]
transferred from a wild species n resuted in new variety A.ESCULENTUS c/as PARBHANI KRANTI.
insect resistance in crop maybe
morphological, physiological, biochemical
hairy leaves ass. w/
resistance to insevt pests eg. rsistance to jassids in cotton and cereal leaf beetle in wheat
solid stems not preferred by
stem sawfly in wheat
smooth leaves and nectar less and cotton less varieties
do not attract bollworms
