The purpose of present study was to discover the dissimilarities of anthropometric measures between the male Cricket and Volleyball players. The selected subjects were aged between 18-25 years. Significant differences were found between both groups with regard to the variables: Standing & Sitting Height, Body Weight, Leg-length, Arm-length, Bi-Acromial Diameter, Ankle Diameter, and Circumference of Upper-Arm& Calf, and Skin fold of-Biceps, Triceps and Calf. Findings indicated no significant differences between both groups for the variables: Bicondylar Humerus Diameter, Wrist Diameter, Bicondylar Femur Diameter, Forearm Circumference, Thigh Circumference, Subscapular skinfold and Suprailliac skinfold. Independent t-test was used to identify the differences of anthropometric measures between Cricket and Volleyball players. The level of significance was set at 0.05 level. The result of the study revealed that Cricketers had greater lengths whereas Volleyballers had greater diameters and skinfold score.
Background: The analysis of variance (ANOVA) for all characters of dolichos bean genotypes was carried out separately. The analysis of variance, test of significance of variance components were conductedin accordance to the procedure as suggested by Panse and Sukhatme (1967). Correlation and path coefficient analysis were evaluated as per the formulation of Al-Jibouri et al. (1958) and Dewey and Lu (1959), respectively. Methods: Present investigation was conducted in two locations viz. Vegetable Research Farm, Pusa and Birauli, Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University, Bihar during Rabi season in 2019-2020 and pooled data was analyzed. The entire experiment was conducted using fourteen genotypes of dolichos bean in RBD in three replications and fourteen yield attributing and morphological traits were studied. The performance of genotypes was evaluated on the basis of all fourteen characters. Best performing genotypes were screened based on their performance. Selection has been done for all characters which are positively and directly correlated with yield. Result: Among the fourteen genotypes it has been inferred that RAUDB-2 and RAUDB-7 had maximum pod yield. Therefore, they can replace the check variety Swarna Utkrist. The magnitude of genotypic correlation was higher than phenotypic correlation for all the traits indicating inherent associations between various characters. The traits such as pod diameter, number of pods per plant and harvest duration positively correlated with pod yield.In present investigation the path analysis revealed pod length, days to 1st flowering, days to 50% flowering and number of seeds per pod exerted positive direct effect on pod yield.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
