An investigation was conducted at Vegetable unit, Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University, Chidambaram during 2011-12, with a view to identify superior genotypes in garden bean. The experiment was laid out by collecting 27 genotypes from various sources in a randomized block design with three replications for two seasons. The observations on various growth and yield parameters were recorded and analyzed for identifying the superior genotype. Path analysis revealed the existence of high magnitude of positive direct effect of pod weight, number of pods per inflorescence, number of branches per plant on yield of pods per plant in season I. In season II, the traits like pod weight, number of branches per plant, number of days taken for fruit setting and number of pods per plant had highly significant and positive direct effect on yield of pods in season II.Keywords

An investigation was conducted to study the effect of water soluble fertilizers on yield parameters of chilli hybrid (Capsicum annuum L.) was carried out during 2015-2016 in the Pudhukuraipettai village at VirudhachalamTaluk in Cuddalore district. Foliar feeding of water soluble fertilizers NPK viz., 19:19:19, 18:18:18, 13:40:13 were given at 0.5 and 1.0 per cent concentration with 5 sprays each starting from 30 DAT at 15 days interval along with 100 and 75 per cent recommended dose of NPK (120:80:80 kg ha-1), formed thirteen treatments in chilli hybrid. The experimental plots were laid out in Randomized Block Design and replicated thrice. The results obtained showed that 100% RDF + WSF 1.0% NPK @ 13:40:13 recorded the highest number fruits per plant, fruit length, fruit girth, fruit weight, yield per plant and yield per hectare.Keywords

The present investigation was carried out using thirty genotypes of watermelon from diversified origin to elicit information on the quantum of genetic variability, heritability and genetic advance in watermelon in the Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar. Variability studies showed significant differences among the thirty genotypes for all the thirteen characters. Yield per plant was maximum in CL 4 genotype collected from Atchirupakkam in Villupuram district. The characters viz., number of vines per plant, sex ratio, days to first female flowers, node number of first female flower, days to fruit maturity and number of fruits per plant were recorded the maximum in the same genotype. Genetic analysis indicated maximum phenotypic and genotypic co-efficient of variation for single fruit weight and 100 seed weight. The characters viz., fruits diameter, flesh thickness, number of fruits per plant and yield per plant, recorded highest estimate of PCV and moderate estimation of GCV. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance as per cent of mean were observed for single fruit weight, 100 seed weight, number of seeds per fruit, flesh thickness, yield per plant, fruit diameter, vine length, fruit length, number of male flowers, number of fruits per plant, sex ratio and number of primary branches per plant. Moderate estimate of heritability was recorded for number of female flower. Based on mean performance, CL 4 followed by CL 22 and CL 10 were selected as the best genotypes in watermelon for the costal ecosystem, by virtue of their higher yield combined with desirable component characters.Keywords

Field investigation was carried out to study the effect of water soluble fertilizers on yield and quality parameters of brinjal hybrids due to application of various levels of water soluble fertilizer in the University Orchard, Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar. Foliar feeding of water soluble fertilizer NPK (19:19:19) at 0.5 per cent and 1 per cent along with 100 and 75 per cent recommended dose of NPK (200:150:100 kg ha-1) with 5 and 7 sprays, each starting from 30 DAT at 10 days interval, formed twenty treatments in two hybrids. The experimental plots were laid out in Randomized Block Design and replicated thrice. The observations on various yield and quality parameters were recorded and subjected to statistical analysis. The results obtained showed that among the two different concentrations of foliar applied nutrients, 7 sprays of 1 per cent NPK (19:19:19) along with 100 per cent recommended dose of fertilizer (200:150:100 kg ha-1) recorded earlier days to 50 per cent flowering, highest number flowers per plant, fruit girth, fruit weight, yield per plant and yield per hectare. The highest quality parameters were also recorded in the same treatment.Keywords
