Abstract:An experiment was conducted at agricultural research station, SKRAU, Bikaner during rabi season of 2017-18 to evaluate yield of mustard as influenced by date of sowing and varieties in western Rajasthan. The treatment consisted of three dates of sowings viz., 10th October, 25th October and 9th November were kept in main plot and five varieties viz. RH-119, NRCHB-101, RGN-48, RH-749 and Laxmi was kept as sub plot replicated thrice in split plot design. Crop sown on 25th October recorded significantly higher see… Show more
“…So, this was depended on varietal trait and plant inherent capacity. It was reported a variable trend of straw yield production among 5 Indian mustard varieties with 3 different sowing dates during winter season (34).…”
Appropriate planting time of mustard (Brassica sp.) during winter determines the growth yield and quality of a particular cultivar. Since the shift of winter period over the last few years driven by climate change, a transformation in mustard cultivation is also observed. Thus, to study the extent of these variations we studied 6 mustard varieties (V1- Binasarisha-4, V2- Binasarisha-9, V3- Binasarisha-10, V4- BARI Sarisha-14, V5- BARI Sarisha-16 and V6- BARI Sarisha-17) under 3 different planting dates (D1-31st October, D2-10th November and D3-20th November) in the Magura district of Bangladesh to evaluate yield differences over sowing times. Field experimentation was set followed RCB (Randomized complete block) design. Data on growth and yield parameters were collected at various days after sowing. Outcomes noted that, most number of siliqua/plant was obtained with treatment combination D3 × V5 (190.33), siliqua length with D3 × V2 (7.95 cm), number of seeds per siliqua by D3 × V6 (36.30), thousand grain weight by D1 × V1 (3.90 g). Hence, correlation study suggested that, seed yield was positively related to number of siliqua/plant, siliqua length and number of seeds/siliqua. Though, BARI Sarisha-16 (V5) delivered top seed and stover yield in all sowing dates. But interaction effects depicted that planting on 10th (2.00 t/ha) and 20th November (1.99, 1.94 t/ha) gave similar seed yield like 31st October planting (2.31 t/ha); in addition, stover yield (6.70, 6.83 t/ha) also remained at peak with the later plantings (D2, D3). An increase in the tendency of life duration was noticed when sown on 20th November for most treatment combination. Overall, delayed sowing of mustard didn’t affect the yield and related attributes rather it accelerated to some attributes. Hence, rescheduling of optimum sowing time for mustard is now a time demanding concern with regard to weather change.

“…Inappropriate dry matter translocation or senescence related metabolic impairment or both may lead to delayed maturity according to Priya (2020). Recently, Shivran et al, (2022) reported that phenophases of mustard like days to 50% flowering, initiation of siliqua etc were shortened except days to maturity due to high temperature. Further poor performance of crop due to delayed sowing resulted in shorter growing time which delays maturity and results in yield losses.…”
Elevated temperature is one of the major production constraints of Indian mustard. The present study was aimed to estimate variations in phenology, yield attributes and seed yield under elevated temperature (ET) in temperature gradient tunnels (TGT) and open field for heat tolerance. Fourteen genotypes consisting of introgression lines and the mustard varieties were sown in TGT and open field for two consecutive winter seasons (2017-2019).The phenophases were shortened due to elevated temperature in TGT as compared to control except physiological maturity which was trailed by 17-18 days during both the years. Temperature affect was most severe on siliqua formation and seed filling. Among growth parameters only length of main shoot suffered reduction whereas yield contributing parameters like siliqua on main shoot, siliquae plant-1, seeds siliqua-1 and 1000 seed weight along with biomass, seed yield and harvest index suffered significant decline in TGT. Average temperature had positive correlation with all phenological parameters except flowering completion, growth parameters except number of primary and secondary branches while yield attributes only with 1000 seed weight, biomass and seed yield under TGT. Interestingly, number of primary branches had significant negative correlation with average temperature under both control (r=-0.59*) and TGT (-0.61*). Phenological traits had strong relationship with seed yield under TGT. However, seed yield had strong relationship with growth parameters, yield attributes under control except for number of primary branches. Biomass had strong relationship with seed yield under both TGT (R2= 0.51) and control (R2= 0.43). Two years testing revealed introgression lines (JA24 and JA53) and varieties (JD6 and Giriraj) tolerant to heat stress.
