Chickpea is one of the important pulse crops of the Faizabad district among pulses which is affected by the Fusarium wilt (Fusarium udum) disease causing severe yield loss. An eco-friendly integrated disease management technology, particularly use of Trichoderma as seed and soil treatment with rotted FYM have been evaluated on large area of farmers' field during Rabi 2012-13 and 2013-14 in the Madhupur, Anjana and Magalsi villages of Faizabad district (Uttar Pradesh) through on farm trial. Grain yield of chick pea and incidence of wilt were significantly less under Trichoderma treatment and was much superior over the control. Soil and seed treatments with Trichoderma resulted in lowering the wilt disease and considerably increased grain yield of chick pea over farmers' practice. The use of Trichoderma for the management of wilt was very much appreciated by the farmers. The success of Trichoderma in the target villages outlines the need for its popularization in larger areas.Keywords

Combining ability analysis of 10×10 diallel set of crosses in Indian mustard for ten quantative traits revealed preponderance of non-additive gene effects for plant height, number of primary branches per plant and seed yield per plant, whereas additive gene effect was found to be predominant for the inheritance of rest of the character. The parent Varuna, RH-3904 and RH-819 were the good general combiners for seed yield and oil content. Varuna and RH-819 also exhibited desirable general combining ability effect for earliness and dwarfness. Among the cross combination, cross Varuna×RH-819 exhibited superior specific combining ability effect for days to 50% flowering, number of secondary branches per plant and other yield attributing traits. Most of the cross involving high-low general combining parent, exhibited high sca effect for various traits. Seed yield was highly, significantly and positively correlated with days to 50 % flowering, plant height, number of primary branches per plant, length of siliqua, and test weight. Hence, selection for the higher values of these traits will be desirable to increase seed yield.Keywords
