    Notes: Abstract TheAzolla pinnata (Vietnam) inoculated in rice field 10 days after transplanting (DAT) at a rate of 500 kg ha−1 fresh biomass along with phosphorus fertilizer application produced a mat on the water surface at 30 DAT. The three split application of phosphorus as 4.4, 2.2 and 2.2 kg P ha−1 applied at 10, 15 and 20 DAT, respectively produced 67% more biomass and 57% more Nitrogen inAzolla than those obtained by applying 8.8 kg P ha−1 at 10 DAT. Whereas, the two splits of phosphorus as 6.6 and 2.2 kg and 4.4 and 4.4 kg P ha−1 applied 10 and 15 DAT, respectively produced 20 and 33% more biomass and 14 and 27% more Nitrogen only. The three split application of phosphorus also increased the grain and straw yields, panicle number and weight, nitrogen concentration and its uptake in rice significantly over application of the entire amount once only. An increase of 10% grain yield and 13% straw yields was observed when 8.8 kg P ha−1 was applied in three splits rather than applied at one time. On the average an increase of 24% grain and 23% straw yields in rice were observed due toAzolla intercropping and 22% and 16%, respectively due to phosphorus application. The intercropping ofAzolla with rice along with phosphorus application also increased the fertility level of soil by increasing the total nitrogen, organic carbon and available phosphorus of soil.

    Notes: Summary Selection in the F3 generation for seed yield, fruiting branches/plant, effective pods/plant, and seed index (100-seed weight) was carried out in two chickpea crosses. Sixty F5 lines (15 lines/selection criterion) along with check variety were evaluated for seed yield in three distinct environments. The effects of selection criteria on yield stability was examined using linear regression approach and genotype-grouping technique. There were no differences between selection criteria for linear yield responses of F5 lines to different environments. Within all four selection criteria the lines showed similar linear responses. The non-linear component was relatively higher for lines selected for effective pods and seed index than lines selected for yield and fruiting branches. On the basis of mean yield and coefficient of variation across environments, the seed index was the least effective selection criterion for developing high yielding and stable lines. When the results of stability parameters and genotype-grouping technique were considered together, selection for yield and fruiting branches was highly effective for isolating stable and high yielding lines.

    Notes: Abstract The effect of nitrogenous sources like ammonium sulphate (AS), prilled urea (U), urea super granule (USG) and farm yard manure (FYM) was studied on the fresh biomass (FB) and acetylene reduction activity (ARA) ofAzolla pinnata, R. Brown (Bangkok isolate), grown as a dual crop with rice, and rice yield in three successive seasons. Irrespective of the N-sources and seasons, the FB and ARA of Azolla were observed to be maximum on 14th day after Azolla inoculation (DAI). The different N-sources had significant effect on the ARA and to a lesser extent on the FB of Azolla. The treatment without fertilizer-N (control) exhibited highest ARA, FB and total N-content of Azolla. These were inhibited to a lesser extent by USG and FYM, though used at higher rates of 75 kg N ha−1 and 90 kgN ha−1 respectively, compared to that by AS and U, used at lower rates of 45kg N ha−1 each.
