Authors:
Suganya K, Jerlin R* and Raja K
Abstract:
A field experiment was carried out with green gram cv. CO 8 to study the impact of different Super Absorbent Polymer (SAP) coating on growth, yield and seed quality. The optimized concentration of different SAPs viz., Sodium Polyacrylate (SPA), Polyacrylamide (PA) and Coir pith based SAP@7, 2 and 8 g/kg of seeds respectively were applied along with MnSO4@100 ppm to green gram seeds and uncoated seeds (control) served as control.

Abstract:
The study was carried out to investigate the status of genetic diversity of plant species in hilly areas and plain lands of Sylhet Agricultural University (SAU) and in hilly areas adjacent to SAU during January, 2015 to June, 2015. Four study areas were selected to investigate the status of genetic diversity of plant species. It also explored relationships between the characteristics, types, habits, total number of plants and the relationships between hilly area plants and plain land area plants.
