Abstract/ Executive Summary:

An experiment was conducted at Jute Agriculture Experimental Station, Manikganj to evaluate for morpho-agronomic attributes, disease and pest status of 94 accessions of deshi jute (C. capsularis), 172 accessions of tossa jute (C. olitorius), 3 accessions of mesta (H. sabdariffa)and 15 accessions of kenaf (H. cannabinus) along with check varieties CV L-1, CVE-3, BJC-7370, BJC-83, O-9897, O-4, OM-1, O-72, HS-24, HC-2 and HC-25 were sown at on 30 March, 2005. The experiment was sown in a mini plot of 3 meter length of 5 rows for each accession. Row to row distance was 30 and plant to plant distance was 5-6 cm in rows. The unit plot size was 3m x 1.2 m for each accession and plot to plot distance was 1 meter. Pigmentation data, disease and pest infestation data were collected at 60 days after sowing and sowing to harvest respectively. Plants were harvested at 120 days after sowing and post harvest data were collected. The accessions were characterized for their morph-agronomic attributes, disease and pest status as per Corchorus and Hibiscus descriptor. Based on the major yield contributing, disease and pest infestation status accessions no. 3272, 1960, 1958, 1940, 2348, 1932, 1943, 3273 of deshi jute; accessions no. 1122, 1947, 3821, 2109, 3167, 4319, 3801, 4308 of tossa jute; accessions no. 1937, 1905, 1904 of mesta and accessions no. 1906,1930 of kenaf out yielded than check varieties.

Program Area: Pest Management

Commodity: Jute

Objectives:

To evaluate of selected jute, kenaf and mesta germplasm for morpho-agronomic attributes, disease and pest status

Methodology:

The experiment was sown in a mini plot of 3 meter length of 5 rows for each accession. Row to row distance was 30 and plant to plant distance was 5-6 cm in rows. The unit plot size was 3m x 1.2 m for each accession and plot to plot distance was 1 meter. The accessions were sown in 30 March, 2005 with check variety CVL-1 and CVE-3,BJC-7370, BJC-83, O-9897, O-4, OM-1, O-72, HS-24, HC-2 and HC-25. Other standard cultural and intercultural practices were followed. Pigmentation data were collected at 60 days after sowing. Plants were harvested at 120 days after sowing and post harvest data were collected.
