“…Genotypes, environments and GEI variances were significant at P < 0.01 (Akcura et al, 2009). Sood et al, 2016 ;Anwar et al(2007) analyzed stability of variance for grain yield and reported highly significant variances due to environments and environment (linear), while non-significant variance was obtained for genotype.…”

The objective of this study was to determine the stability analysis and genotype x environment interaction of alkali tolerant mulberry genotypes at different alkali soils (untreated/unreclaimed, reclaimed with inorganic/organic amendment) on leaf yield to understand their adaptation. Five alkali tolerant mulberry genotypes along with two improved genotypes and one ruling local check were evaluated in an alkali hotspot. The large variation in mean leaf yield/microplot, regression coefficient (b i ) and deviation from regression (S di 2 ) indicates the different responses of genotypes to soil reclaimed with amendments. Average two year leaf yield/microplot, maximum of 18.240 kg was produced by the AR-12 followed by the AR-14, AR-29, AR-08, V1, AR-10 and S-34. Genotypes AR-12 and AR-14 showed high leaf yield (AR-12: 18.240 kg, AR-14: 16.15 kg), the low deviation from regression (S di 2 ) (AR-12: -0.04, AR-14: 0.03) and their regression coefficient values (b i ) were close to unity (AR-12: 1.41, AR-14: 1.34) and could be classified as stable genotypes.

“…Finger millet is one of the most underutilized nutritious staple cereals, widely cultivated across the dry lands of Asia and Africa by marginal farmers. Being one of the rich reservoirs of micronutrients, dietary fiber, vitamins and phytochemicals of diverse therapeutic uses finger millet has a huge potential to work as alternative grains for ensuring food and nutritional security in most parts of the world (Sood et al, 2016a;Kumar et al, 2021). Moreover, as compared to major cereals, it has better adaptability to the fragile mountain ecosystem and rainfed organic agroecology of the Himalayan region (Gururani et al, 2021).…”

White seeded finger millet is known to have higher acceptability in the baking and food industry compared to the brown seeded finger millet genotypes. The available white seeded finger millet genotypes are late maturing and blast susceptible thereby reducing their farmer's acceptability in the north western Himalayan region particularly in Uttarakhand. Keeping this in view, the development of early maturing, blast resistance white seeded finger millet breeding programme was initiated at ICAR -VPKAS, Almora in 2003-04, which resulted in the release of VL Mandua 382in the year 2021, the first early maturing white seeded finger millet cultivar of finger millet suitable for rainfed and organic agro-ecology of the Himalayan region. It was derived from the cross between late maturing, white finger millet genotype WR 2 (obtained from UAS Bangalore) and early maturing and locally adapted blast tolerant brown seeded genotype VL 201. It recorded an average grain yield of 1,198 kg/ha, which was at par with the brown seeded check VL Mandua 324 (1,197 kg/ha) and out yielded the brown seeded check PRM-1 (1,163 kg/ha) by 3.0 per cent in State Varietal Trials (SVT) conducted under organic conditions of the Himalayan region. The grains contain higher calcium (340 mg/100g) and protein (8.8%) in comparison to the brown seeded check variety VL Mandua 324 (294 mg/100gand 6.6%, respectively). It exhibited moderate resistance to leaf, finger and neck blast in the multilocation trials conducted over 9 locations. Considering the speciality trait (white grains), excellent grain quality, matching yield potential with brown seeded check varieties and blast tolerance, the variety was released for cultivation in rainfed organic agroecology of Uttarakhand hills.
