Abstract

The seed samples of D. sissoo were collected from 58 CPTs representing 7 seed sources of U.P. These samples were studied to evaluate different parameters viz. length, breadth, thickness, shape index (l/b ratio), seed weight, viability and germination percentage. Significant variation was observed between seed sources and studied parameters. On the basis of over all performance, the seed sources can be grouped in descending order as Mathura > Etawah > Kanpur > Ramnaghar > Lucknow > Haldwani > Mau. The performance of some CPTswas found poor with low values of viability and germination. Hence, these ePTs must be avoided for future collections. However, seeds from better CPTs could he used for further genetic improvement programmes.

Unprecedented explosion in the human capacity to acquire, store and manipulate data together with instant communication globally has transformed research from an era of data scarcity to data deluge, where experts see it as a 'second revolution of discovery'. Data citation being one of the ways of giving attribution, its standards and good practices can form the basis for increased incentives, recognition and rewards for research data activities, that in many cases are currently lacking.
