“…It is cultivated during winter in plains and during summer in high-lands. 2 It represents about 40% of the total trade in pulses. In 2011-2012, the crop was grown over an area of 15.8 thousand hectares with 105 thousand tonnes production of green pea and average yield was 166 mounds ha -1 .…”

Materials and Methods Five pea varieties were evaluated for their performance at mountain agricultural research centre (MARC), Juglote, Gilgit during 2017. The varieties are climax, pasan, rondo, meteor and green feast. Results Differences among plant heights of pea varieties were significant with maximum plant height of 85.25 cm noted in plots of variety climax, while the minimum plant height of 45.75 cm was recorded in plots of variety rondo. Number of branches per plant of the different varieties ranged significantly from a minimum of 2.15 (green feast)to a maximum of 4.00 (meteor). Average number of pods per plant varied significantly between 10.84 and 13.71.Maximum pods per plant were found from variety climax (13.71) followed by green feast (13.58). Maximum pod length of 7.900 cm was recorded for variety Rondo, followed by variety green feast with pod length of 5.800 cm, while the minimum of 5.220 cm was recorded for the verity meteor. Maximum pod weight 26.29 kg per plot was obtained from variety climax, followed by 21.75 kg per plot from variety green feast, the minimum pods weight was recorded for variety meteor 16.20 kg per plot. Difference in pods yield of the five varieties were significant, with a maximum pods yield of 3585 kg per hectare recorded for variety climax, followed by 3545 kg per hectare for cultivar green feast and minimum of 2491 kg per hectare noted for variety rondo. Conclusion Therefore, variety climax being the highest yielder can be recommended to the pea growers of Gilgit-Baltistan for commercial cultivation.

The present study was conducted at ARI Quetta during the year 2018, to know the outcome of egg parasitoid (Trichogrammachilonis) against Helicoverpaarmigera and spotted bollworm complex. The observations were recorded on the weekly basis population of Helicoverpaarmigera and spotted bollworm under control and biological control plots. The reduction percentage and crop yield was also calculated. Spotted bollworm maximum population in control plot was counted in second week (15.82±2.48) and minimum population was observed in sixth week (12.56±1.53b) during ten weeks respectively. Spotted bollworm population in biological plot (Trichogrammachilonis) maximum population was observed (10.90±1.61) during 1 weeks and least population was observed in tenth week (8.12±0.32) in treated plot. Helicoverpaarmigera population in control plot maximum population was counted (16.74±2.23) during 9th week and minimum population was observed (13.54±1.75 b) during 10 weeks duration, respectively. Helicoverpaarmigera population in biological plot (Trichogrammachilonis) maximum population was counted (11.90±1.72a) and minimum population was observed (9.08±0.33d) during 10 weeks of duration, respectively. Statistical analysis indicates that there was no significant variation in spotted bollworms and Helicoverpaarmigera population for control plot in all weeks, but significant variation in population of both lepidopteran complexes in biological control (Trichogrammachilonis) plot in all weeks. The data indicates that 61.33% and 66.57% reduction was observed in spotted bollworms and Helicoverpaarmigeraunder biological control (Trichogrammachilonis). It was noted that Trichogrammachilonis is valuable biological agent for Integrated Pest Management program.

“…Pea is an excellent source of human diet, either eaten as vegetable and soup. Pea is rich source of protein, vitamins A, B and C and also contains a high proportion of minerals [2]. In Pakistan, pea is an important crop, which plays a major role in farmer's economy.…”

“…It is the most common crop and enjoys a great commercial demand due to its nutritive value. It is cultivated during winter in plains and during summer in highlands [2]. In Pakistan, it is cultivated on an area of 10 thousand hectares with a total production of 72 thousand metric tons [3].Average yield per hectare of peas in Pakistan is quite low (7.2 t/ha) as compared to its potential and yield obtained in other countries [4].…”

We investigated the physicochemical attributes of nine pea landraces collected from mountainous areas of Azad Jammu and Kashmir-Pakistan using one cultivar (Meteor) as control. Landraces were grown under the same agro-climatic conditions to remove variance caused by environment × genotype association. There was high physicochemical diversity among the landraces in the content of plant height (23.4-44.7cm), branches per plant(7.55-9.05), flowers/ plant(2-5.32), leaves per plant (31.53-32.80), seeds per pod (3.13-6.83), pods per plant (10.2-6.67), seed weight (g/100 seed) ( 22.80-23.93), pod length (4.50-8.16cm), total seed yield (10.30-9.99 kg/ha), pH (5.0-7.8), total protein content (10.76-20.23%), fiber content (0.76-7.20%), fat content(1.12-2.86%), carbohydrates (79.1-94.38 mg/g) and antioxidant activity (3.83-4.63%).Together, our results regarding the morphological and nutritional status of existing pea landraces will contribute and increase our knowledge about the field pea and broaden the gene pool available for future plant breeding programs.
