Abstract/ Executive Summary:

An experiment was conducted at four regional station of Dhaka, Mankganj, Chandian and Rangpur on 29-03-97, 27-03-97, 29-03-1997 and 24-03-1997 respectively to evaluate for morph o-agronomic attributes, disease and pest tolerance of ten selected accessions of desi jute (C. capsularis) along with check varieties varieties CVL-1 and CC-45. The experiment was laid out in RCBD design with three replications. The unit plot size was a single row of 4.6 m for each accession with 30 cm between rows and 5-7cm between plants in a row. Pigmentation data, disease and pest infestation data were collected at 60 days after sowing and sowing to harvest respectively. The accessions were characterized for their morph-agronomic attributes, disease and pest tolerance as per Corchorus descriptor. Plants were harvested at 120 days after sowing and post harvest data were collected. Based on the major yield contributing, disease and pest infestation status accessions 4683 and CGR 1769 performed better than other accessions.

Keywords: Germplasm, Characterization, Disease and pest status, Attributes, Yield

Location: Dhaka, Mankganj, Chandian and Rangpur

Start Date: 24-03-1997

End Date: 30-07-1997

Program Area: Pest Management

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

1. To evaluate of deshi jute germplasm for their morpho-agronomic attributes

2. To find out the disease, pest infestation status and fiber properties of jute plant

Methodology:

The experiment was laid out in RCBD design with three replications. Row to row distance was 30 and plant to plant distance was 5-6 cm in rows. The accessions CGR 1769, CGR 1851, 4683, 4730, 4731, 4928, 4953, 5003, 4995 and 5065 were sown at four regional station of Dhaka, Mankganj, Chandian and Rangpur on 29-03-97, 27-03-97, 29-03-1997 and 24-03-1997 respectively with check varieties CVL-1 and CC-45. Other standard cultural and intercultural practices were followed. Pigmentation data were collected at 60 days after sowing. Disease, pest infestation and fiber properties data were collected from sowing to before harvesting period. Plants were harvested at 120 days after sowing and post harvest data were collected.
