Quantitative data were collected and analysed on 10 metric characters from F1s and F2s of sixteen green gram (Vigna radiata L. Wilczek) hybrids, developed from ten genetically diverse parents, to obtain information on variability, heritability, coheritability, and genotypic and phenotypic correlations. The increased genetic variability of F2 over F1 was observed for plant height, number of primary branches, pods/cluster, pods/plant, pod length and harvest index, suggesting the greater segregation and recombination of genes governing these characters. The high broad-sense heritability coupled with high genetic advance for plant height, days to 50% flowering and pod length in both F1s and F2s indicated the predominant role of additive gene action in their expression. The genotypic and phenotypic correlations between F1 and F2 were significant and positive for seven characters. The coheritability estimates between F1 and F2 had values of over 0.25 and were positive for six characters, but not for seed yield/plant, days to 50% flowering, clusters/plant or pods/plant. Within the F1 and F2 generations, seed yield/plant showed significant positive genotypic and phenotypic correlations with eight characters. The seed yield in green gram could be easily enhanced by practising selection on plant height, number of primary branches, pods/cluster, pod length and harvest index.

A field experiment was carried out at Ramkrishna Ashram KVK Instructional Farm, Nimpith, South 24Parganas during the pre-kharif season, 2012 to evaluate the performance of 66 numbers of green gram (Vigna radiata L.) genotypes in low to medium saline soil in coastal saline belts of Sundarbans, West Bengal. Almost all the 66 cultivars selected for the experiments took 5-6 days for 75% germination of seedlings and 27-36 days to achieve 50% flowering. Final plant stand count was from 70-80%. The higher value of seed yield was observed in PUSA-2031 (1398 kg), 75.4% higher in comparison to the local check Chaiti moong (797 kg/ha) followed by KM-11-573 (1302 kg; 63.3% more than LC), SM-11-41 (1286 kg; 61.3% more than LC), KM-11-583 (1280 kg, 60.6% more than LC), KM-11-578 (1211 kg, 51.9% more than LC), respectively. The significantly higher values of other yield attributing traits were observed among the green gram genotypes. In case of root length, the above genotypes were found significantly lower (12.33-14.33 cm, 7.8-20.4%) than the Chaiti moong (LC) 15.5 cm. From the above experiment it may be concluded that in the similar situation as well as soil salinity condition the above green gram genotypes may prove to perform better than the local cultivar Chaiti moong for cultivation in the coastal saline regions of Sundarbans, West Bengal.

Background: Green gram [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] is an ancient and well known pulse crop of Asian countries. Specific traits should be considered for high yield in green gram as selection criteria in future breeding program.Methods: The investigation material comprised of 128 F6 RIL (Recombinant Inbred LINE) population sown at college farm, Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University during Rabi-2019-20. The yield and yield attributes were recorded to conduct genetic variability, heritability broad sense (h2), genetic advance (GA) and genetic advance as % of mean (GAM).Result: Analysis of variance revealed significant differences among the RILs, indicating the presence of genetic variability for almost all the traits studied. High PCV and GCV estimates was noticed for number of pods per plant, seed yield per plant, number of cluster per plant and number of pods per cluster. High heritability along with high genetic advance as per cent of mean was observed for number of pods per plant, seed yield per plant, number of cluster per plant, number of pods per cluster, number of branches per plant, number of seeds per pod and plant height indicating the role of additive genes in governing the inheritance of these traits and could be improved through selection. The traits viz. seed yield per plant, number of pods per plant, number of clusters per plant and number of pods per cluster had recorded high PCV, GCV, high heritability along with high genetic advance as per cent of mean indicated these traits were less influenced by environment and possess high genetic variability. Hence these RILs would be suitable for green gram breeding programmes to develop improved varieties. The present findings of the RIL population will be useful for development of high seed yielding variety in green gram.

A field experiment was conducted on clay textured soil during Kharif season of 2013 to study the effect of soil amendments and organic foliar sprays on crop growth, seed yield and quality of green gram (Vigna radiata L.). The soil application of organic manures and liquid organic foliar sprays at flower initiation and 15 days after flowering (DAF) significantly enhanced the seed yield and seed quality parameters of green gram. Application of FYM (1/3)+ Vermicompost (1/3) + glyricidia leaf manure (1/3) equivalent to 100% RDP and foliar spray of panchagavya (3%) at flower initiation and 15 DAF recorded significantly more number of pods per plant (21.27), pod length (10.25 cm), number of seeds per pod (12.10), seed yield (12.89 g/plant) and seed yield (1263.68 kg/ha) with concomitant higher seed quality parameters like 100 seed weight (5.86 g), seed germination percentage (95.67 %), shoot length(16.53cm) root length (18.25 cm), seedling vigour index (3308) and protein content (23.79 %) as compared to other treatment combinations and control.

Cropping system in the study area is by far dominated by sesame sole cropping, which resulted in low productivity, pest prevalence, poor soil fertility and yield. A study was conducted to evaluate the productivity of sesame varieties intercropped with green gram in factorial arrangement at kafta-humera during 2017/18 cropping season. Two factorial experiment namely, (i) cropping system at two levels (sole and intercropping), (ii) two sesame varieties (setit1 and local) and was conducted in randomized complete block design replicated three times. The results showed that yield of sesame and green gram were affected considerably by cropping system. Highest and significant grain yields of both sesame varieties were recorded in the pure stands (6.70 qt/ha and 5.30 qt/ha for setit1 and local) respectively. On the contrary, lowest yield was obtained (4.3 q/ha and 5 q/ha) under intercropped local and setit1 respectively. Moreover, sole green gram gained a significant higher seed yield (13.2 qt/ha) over intercropped greengram with local (5.1 qt/ha) and intercropped greengram with setit1 (4.7 qt/ha) treatments.
