Drought is a major constraint that limits seed yield in chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.). It is important to establish the relative importance many of these drought-related traits for prioritizing their consideration in breeding for drought tolerance improvements. The objective of this study was to categorize the drought tolerant and susceptible chickpea genotypes on the basis of physiological parameters. An experiment was conducted with five chickpea genotypes in field under irrigated and rain fed conditions. Observations were recorded on relative water content (RWC), and the contents of chlorophyll (Chl), carotenoid (Car), proline (Pro) and protein in the five chickpea genotypes. RWC and contents of Chl, Car and protein decreased under moisture stress, whereas Pro content increased with the increase in moisture stress. Pusa-1108, Pusa-362, Pusa-1103 were able to maintain relatively higher RWC, Chl, Car and protein content and greater Pro accumulation, while Flip 90-166 and SBD- 377 showed comparatively greater decline in the RWC, Chl, Car and Protein and less accumulation of Pro under moisture stress. The data suggest that chickpea genotypes can be categorized into drought tolerant and susceptible types based on the variations in RWC, Chl, Car, Pro and protein content. Keywords: Carotenoid, chickpea, chlorophyll, moisture stress, proline, protein, relative water content 1. INTRODUCTION Relative water content (RWC) is one of the important parameter to measure water status of the Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is world’s second most tissue (Barrs and Weatherley, 1962). Gradual decrease cultivated grain legume grown over 10.2 million in RWC with increase in stress and greater reduction hectare. Chickpea is grown as a winter crop in the afterwards under severe stress has been reported in Indian subcontinent, which accounts for nearly 85% chickpea (Deshmukh et al., 2000). High RWC under of the chickpea area sown worldwide. It is also an moisture stress denotes ability of plants to tolerate important crop in West Asia and Mediterranean moisture stress (Uprety and Sirohi, 1987, Ritchi et al., region. In India chickpea is generally grown using 1990).Under moisture stress conditions tolerant types stored soil moisture after rainy season. Moisture stress show less reduction in RWC as compared with is the most prevalent environmental factor limiting susceptible ones (Sairam et al., 1997). Baisak et al. plant growth, survival and productivity in chickpea (1994) reported the decline in chlorophyll content (Bohnert and Jenson, 1995). Moisture deficit affects with water stress. Reduction in chlorophyll content seed germination and seedling establishment in the upon exposure to oxidative stress and a comparatively field, however, genotypes vary in their capacity to higher chlorophyll content in tolerant wheat and tolerate moisture stress. Chickpea is believed to be maize genotypes than susceptible ones has also been tolerant to drought condition, but there is little reported (Kraus et al., 1995). Sairam (1994) reported published evidence to support this contention (Saxena, that under moisture stress chlorophyll content and 1984). chlorophyll stability index were higher in tolerant wheat genotypes in comparison to the susceptible 23 Rizvi et al.

However, environments for two seasons following the tolerant genotypes maintained relatively higher recommended package of practices.

Carotenoid provides protection against oxidative In control plots irrigation was provided as and when damage (Schmitz and Noga, 1997). Jiang et al.

They further crop season. The various parameters were studied at reported that under osmotic stress the activities of two growth stages of the crop viz. flowering and pod endogenous protective enzyme systems and the formation stage.

Laboratory determinations plant’s adaptation against stress. Among all osmolytes, proline is probably most widely Relative water content (RWC) was determined in flag distributed, and its accumulation seems to be involved leaf as per the method of Barrs and Weatherley in the process of adaptation to osmotic stress (Yoshiba (1962).

  • Weather Based Yield Crop Forecasting: Agro-Physics Approach
    Journal of Pure and Applied Science & Technology Copyright © 2011 NLSS, Vol. 8(1), Jan 2018, pp. 12-17 Weather based yield crop forecasting: Agro-Physics Approach Dr. Vinay kumar Department of physics, Janta Vedic College, Baraut, Baghpat, U.P., India The present paper deals with use of non-linear regression analysis for developing Wheat yield forecast model for Jhansi (India). Weather indices based regression models were developed using weather indices as independent variables while character under study such as crop yield was used as dependent variable for Wheat Crop i.e. two step non-linear forecast model. Technique of forecasting using non-linear approach and using weather indices will enrich the knowledge in developing customized models on forecasting for different types of crops and for different locations. For that, trend analysis has been done through linear and non-linear approaches. In which for each weather variable two indices have been developed, one as simple total of values of weather parameter in different weeks and the other one as weighted total, weights being correlation coefficients between detrended yield and weather variable in respective weeks. Weather indices based regression models were developed using weather indices as independent variables while detrended yield (residuals) was considered as dependent variable. Time series yield data of 40 years (1970- 2010) and weather data for the year 1970-71 to 2009-10 have been utilized. The models have been used to forecast yield in the subsequent three years 2008-09 to 2009-10 (which were not included in model development). The approach provided reliable yield forecast about two months before harvest.
