गेहूं में संकर बीज उत्पादन प्रणाली Heterosis is the manifestation of heterozygosity expressed as increased vigour, size, fruitfulness and resistance to disease, insects or climatic extremes relative to either the high-parent or the mid-parent value. Varying estimates of heterosis have been reported in wheat for various traits of economic importance. It is generally known that hybrid advantage is a function of three factors: breeding-method efficiency (rate-of-progress); negative or positive effects of the system used to produce the hybrid; and the inherent level of heterosis. In wheat, one of the major constraints in hybrid development has been the lack of an effective and efficient seed production system. Here we discuss two different methods of seed...

पोषक तत्वों की गुणवत्ता बनाए रखने के लिए गेहूं कटाई की उपयुक्‍त अवस्‍था  The nutritional value of wheat is extremely important as it is the second most important staple food crop of India. The importance of wheat is mainly due to the fact that its grain can be ground into flour, semolina, etc., which form the basic ingredients of bread and other bakery products, as well as pastas, and thus it presents the main source of nutrients to the most of the world population. These end products of wheat are mainly dependent up on the nutritional quality of the wheat grains. The wheat grain (Fig. 1) contains 2-3% germ, 13-17% bran and 80-85%...

भारत के गेेहूँ उत्‍पादन कटि‍बंध Wheat is a major crop of India. Although there is huge variation in climatic conditions, Wheat is grown in all parts of India. Geographically India has been divided into six Wheat growing zones, namely:    1. Northern Hills Zone (NHZ) The northern hills Zone comprises of western Himalayan regions of J&K (except Jammu and Kathua distt.), Himachal Pardesh (except Una and Paonta valley), Uttaranchal (except Tarai area), Sikkim and hills of West Bengal and N.E.States. This Zone has Wheat growing area of 0.8 mha which is predominantly rainfed. Av. productivity of wheat in this zone is 16.64 q/ha. The major constraints in wheat production in this zone is water stress, yellow...

भारतीय किसानों का गेहूं प्रजाति‍यों के अबाध क्रम के ज्ञान को बढ़ाने की ओर एक कदम Wheat is the second most important food crop of the country and contributes nearly one third of the total food grain production. Global wheat production during 2010-11 was 682 million tonnes and during 2011-12 it is estimated as 693 million tonnes. Wheat consumption worldwide is estimated to surpass 817 million tonnes by 2030 and production would need to increase at 22.6-43.6 per cent in different countries at the current production level to meet the estimated consumption demand. India occupied near about 29.5 million hectare area under wheat with an estimated production of 88.31 million tonnes during 2011-12. This...
