Onion (Allium cepa L.) is an important underground vegetable bulb crop of tropical and subtropical part of the world. The experiment was carried out in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with three replications and conducted during 2016 to 2018 under irrigation condition at three testing sites. The experiment was designed to select high yielding and good shelf life varieties with the following specific objectives (1) to evaluate and select high yielding onion varieties, (2) to select the adaptable onion varieties and (3) to evaluate and select onion varieties having long shelf life. The study result showed that different variations were observed among the varieties; (29.82%) by environments, (21.94%) Genotype x Environment Interaction and genotypes (6.6. The high environmental variations and differential response of genotypes to the variable environments leading to inconsistency ranking of genotypes across years and locations. The highest yield was obtained from Bombey red (440.3 kgha-1), followed by Nafis(395 kgha-1), Shendi(391 kgha-1), Nasik red(373 kgha-1) and Adama red(387 kgha-1) respectively. The highest %yield loss recorded from Adama red (28.30%) followed by Nafis (23.23%), Nasik red (22.90) Bombey red (22.48%) and Shendi (5.67%) respectively. Even though, the stability ranking of the varieties were varied among the stability parameters. Nafis and Bombey red were found the most stable. While Nasik red, Adama red and Shendi unstable across years and locations. From each of the onion varieties 5 kg was stored for three months and shelf life data recorded and analyzed using R software. Based on the study Shendi can store more than six months without any problem will be recommended and promoted for commercial production. Therefore, the stable varieties recommended and promoted for wider areas.

“…The flowers were tightly packed, and about a week or 10 days after the start of flowering, the opening of new flower buds tended to displace adjacent flowers which had opened previously. Flowers which opened later, developed longer pedicels and consequently the earlier flowers became buried, once they reached stage 6, under a layer of more recent flowers [10,29,[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][18][19][20][21][22][23][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][24][25][26][27][28][30][31][32].…”

Bathua (Chenopodium album), a fast-growing weedy annual plant under the genus Chenopodium, is valuable for its high nutritional, medicinal and economic values as a leafy vegetable. The present study was carried out to evaluate the growth performance and economic returns of bathua genotypes in acid soil at Sylhet, Bangladesh. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Morphological and growth parameters were recorded at the final harvest. The maximum plant height, number of branches per plant, fresh weight of inflorescence and leaf length were recorded in local bathua 1(110.5 cm, 65.33, and 8.93 g, respectively). The maximum fresh weight of leaves per plant, the maximum dry weight of leaves per plant were recorded in local bathua 2 (39.92 g and 8.79 g respectively). Results revealed that the studied morphological parameters including plant height, fresh and dry weight of leaves per plant, fresh and dry weight of stem per plant, fresh and dry weight of inflorescence per plant, stem base diameter, number of leaves per plant, number of branches per plant and leaf length influences the foliage yield of bathua. The highest foliage yield (9.20 t.ha-1), total gross return (Tk.552000.ha-1), net return (Tk.367000.ha-1) and BCR (2.98) were found in local bathua 1. From the findings of the present study, local bathua 1 could achieve higher productivity and profitability in acid soils of Sylhet, Bangladesh.
