Pumpkin crop can be improved by exploitation of heterosis. This study was carried out during three different seasons, Kharif, 2015 (E1), Rabi 2015-16 (E2) and summer-season, 2016 (E3) in Eastern Uttar Pradesh, India. The objective was to find out the magnitude of heterobeltiosis, economic heterosis and suitable cross-combination for higher quality fruit yield in pumpkin. Fifteen F1 hybrids were developed through diallel mating design of six parental lines excluding reciprocals. The evolution of hybrids revealed significant heterobeltiosis as well as economic heterosis for all the traits in all three seasons independently (E1, E2 and E3) and combined. Crosses P1 x P5, P4 x P6 and P1 x P2 may be exploited as commercial hybrids for profitable yield in pumpkin. Significant heterobeltiosis and economic heterosis indicates the importance of heterosis breeding for the developing high yield hybrids.Keywords

Solid-to-water proportion decides the effectiveness of paste backfill in terms of transportation characteristics during mine backfilling. This article highlights various laboratory tests conducted to determine the optimum solid-to-water ratio. Also, numerical simulation was carried out using computational fluid dynamics technique (ANSYS FLUENT) to understand the slump lifting process and variation in volume of the paste with time. The optimum slump and spread for lead–zinc mill tailings paste were in the range 190– 200 mm and 330–340 mm respectively. The optimum water content in the paste fill for this study was found to be 23 wt%. Results show that the solid percentage is inversely related with slump and spread. Also, an optimum slump lifting speed needs to be maintained for accurate values of slump and spread.Keywords
