Agricultural land use in coastal area covers 53% and the lands are mostly affected by salinity. Besides, the average yield of rice in these areas is very low due to salinity. Although, BRRI has developed salt registrant rice varieties, the average production can be improved through soil management. Thus, a pot experiment was conducted in the net house of Department of Agronomy, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, during March to August 2010 to investigate the ameliorative effect of ash application on yield and yield attributes of rice under various salinity levels. Rice var. BRRI dhan47 (a salt tolerant variety) was used in the experiment. The sodium chloride induced salinity levels were 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 mM NaCl and the levels of ash applied were 1.5, 3, 4.5 and 6 t ha-1. Results revealed that the different levels of salinity had significant adverse effect on plant height, tillers hill-1, panicle hill-1, grains panicle-1, 1000-grain weight, grain yield, biological yield and harvest index. All the plants eventually died when they were exposed to salinity level of 40 mM NaCl or more and could not survive up to maturity. Application of ash enhanced the yield attributes and yield of rice under different salinity levels compared to those without ash. It was concluded that application of ash at the rate of 6 t ha-1 ameliorated the salinity stress effect on rice yield of BRRI dhan47.Bangladesh Agron. J. 2017, 20(1): 31-36

A pot culture and a field experiment were conducted with cyanobacteria in presence and absence of different levels of urea to evaluate their effects on growth and yield of rice cv. BRRI Dhan 28, 29 and 36 during Boro season of 2007. The treatments were T1 (control), T2 (only cyanobacteria), T3 (recommended doses of urea - 60 kg N/ha), T4 (45% recommended doses of urea + cyanobacteria), T5 (65% recommended doses of urea + cyanobacteria) and T6 (85% recommended doses of urea + cyanobacteria).The maximum values for different growth, yield and yield components (plant height, number of productive tillers/hill, panicle length, number of grains/panicle, 1000-grain weight, and grain, straw and biological yield) were observed in BRRI Dhan 29 under T6 (85% recommended doses of urea + cyanobacteria) and lowest was observed in BRRI Dhan 28 under T1 (neither urea nor cyanobacteria). Uses of cyanobacteria increased the yield of Boro rice varieties and decreased the use of urea by 15-20%.

An experiment was conducted at the net house of Department of Agronomy, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh from July to December 2012to investigate the ameliorative effect of green manure and gypsum application on the yield of transplant Aman rice variety BRRI dhan40 under various levels salinity stress. Sodium chloride induced salinity was imposed at tillering stage of plant development. The levels of salinity were 0, 25 and 50 mM NaCl. Green manure @ 0, 5 and 10 t ha gypsum @ 0 and 1 g kg-1 and 1 soil were applied to ameliorate the salinity stress effect. 1 g kg-1 soil were applied to ameliorate the salinity stress effect. Results revealed that the different levels of salinity had significant adverse effect on plant height, number of tillers hill-1, number of effective tillers hill-1, number of ineffective tillers hill-1, 1000-grain weight, grain yield, biological yield and harvest index (HI). All the plants were affected badly when they were exposed to salinity level of 50 mM NaCl. Application of green manure and gypsum helped them ameiorate salinity either individually or in combination at all salinity levels. Grain yield reduction at 50 mM salinity level was 38.64% compared to control which was minimized to 19.04% by the application of green manure @ 10 t ha-1. Grain yield reduction was also minimized from 37.08% to 27% at the same level of salinity by the application of gypsum@ 1 g kg-1soil. Similar amelioration effect was also observed in case of straw yield. The amelioration was improved further when both green manure and gypsum were applied. Without any salinity stress grain yield was 4.49 t ha-1, which was reduced to 2.61 t ha-1 (41.87% reduction) when the crop was stressed with 50 mM salinity. Application of green manure @ 10 t ha-1 and gypsum @ 1 g kg-1 soil improved grain yield to 4.00 t ha-1, where yield reduction was just 10.91%. Similar improvement was also found in straw yield. The results of the study conclude that salinity stress in transplant Aman rice var. BRRI dhan40 could successfully be ameliorated through application of green manure@ 10 t ha-1 and gypsum@ 1 g kg-1 soil.Bangladesh Agron. J. 2014, 17(1): 1-10

An experiment was conducted at the Agronomy Field of Patuakhali Science and Technology University, Dumki, Patuakhali from June to December, 2013 to find out the effect of variety and planting density on the yield and yield attributing characters of local aromatic rice. The experiment was laid out in a factorial randomized complete block design with three replications, which consisted of three local aromatic rice varieties (Chinigura, Shakhorkhora and Kalizira) and four planting densities were viz. S1 (25 cm × 20 cm), S2 (20 cm × 20 cm), S3 (20 cm × 15 cm) and S4 (20 cm × 10 cm). The results revealed that the local aromatic rice var. Shakhorkhora variety produced the highest number of grains per panicle (131) and 1000-grain weight (13.8 g), consequently higher grain (2.63 t ha-1), followed by Kalizira (2.56 t ha-1) and straw yield (4.21 t ha-1). One the other hand, higher number of tillers per hill (14.8), number of grains per panicle (140 nos.) were found in 20 cm × 20 cm spacing with higher grain yield.Bangladesh J. Agril.

Forty-five rice lines comprising of thirty derived hybrid lines obtained from ten tropical Japonica, three Indica and two national checks viz. Pusa Basmati 1121 and Sarjoo-52 were evaluated for selection parameters, yield contributing components and genetic divergence. Fifteen quantitative and three qualitative traits were studied from experimentation with randomized block design during Kharif 2011. The phenotypic coefficient of variability was higher than genotypic coefficient of variability for all of the traits. The highest estimates of broad sense heritability coupled with genetic advance in per cent of mean was recorded for spikelets per panicle, plant height followed by L:B ratio, spikelets per panicle, grains per panicle, biological yield per plant, flag leaf area, days to 50% flowering, plant height which might be due to the additive nature of gene action. Such results indicated that these traits will be reliable for the effective selection. Highly positive and significant correlation was observed at both phenotypic and genotypic level between grain yield per plant and biological yield per plant, followed by panicle bearing tillers per plant, spikelet fertility, panicle length, 1000- grain weight, grains per panicle, panicle weight, flag leaf length, spikelet per panicle, flag leaf area, kernel length, flag leaf width, days to 50% flowering, and harvest index. This relationship reflected that grain yield and aforesaid economic traits can be increased simultaneously in breeding programme to develop high yielding Indica as well as Tropical Japonica rice varieties. Whole genotypes grouped in 8 non-overlapping clusters exhibited maximum genetic diversity between clusters III i.e., TJ- 64897 × NDR-359, TJ-64897 × CSR36, TJ-64897 × PB-1 and VIII i.e., TJ-11010 × NDR359, TJ-11010 × PB-1, TJ-16081 × NDR-359, TJ-16081 × PB-1. These clusters also stand for early days to flowering, short slender, second highest harvest index and panicle bearing tillers per plant, spikelets per panicle, grains per panicle, spikelet fertility, 1000- grain weight, long bold slender, biological yield per plant, and grain yield per plant. These genotypes showing higher mean performance for aforesaid traits can be exploited for enhancing hybrid vigour of desired New Plant Type with higher number of panicle bearing tillers per plant, spikelet per panicle and grains per spike in Indica as well as Tropical Japonica rice varieties for achieving higher yield.

The experiment was carried out during the period of June to November 2013 at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh with a view to examine the yield performance of some transplant aman rice varieties as influenced by different levels of nitrogen. The experiment consisted of four varieties viz. BRRI dhan49, BRRI dhan52, BRRI dhan56, BRRI dhan57 and four levels of N viz. 0, 46, 60 and 75 kg ha-1. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Variety, levels of N and their interactions exerted significant influence on yield contributing characters and yield of transplant aman rice. Among the varieties, BRRI dhan52 produced the tallest plant (117.20 cm), highest number of effective tillers hill-1 (11.28), grains panicle-1 (121.5) and 1000-grain weight (23.65 g) whereas the lowest values of these parameters were produced by BRRI dhan57. Highest grain yield (5.69 t ha-1) was obtained from BRRI dhan52 followed by BRRI dhan49 (5.15 t ha-1) and the lowest one (4.25 t ha-1) was obtained from BRRI dhan57. In case of N, the tallest plant (111.70 cm), highest number of total tillers hill-1 (12.34), grains panicle-1 (133.6), 1000-grain weight (24.55 g) and grain yield (5.64 t ha-1) were obtained from 75 kg N ha-1 and the lowest values were obtained from control. BRRI dhan52 fertilized with 75 kg N ha-1 showed best performance with respect to all the parameters studied. The overall results suggest that BRRI dhan52 should be fertilized with 75 kg N ha-1 for getting higher yield under the agro-climatic condition of BAU.J. Bangladesh Agril.

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of micronutrients on the growth and yield performance of chickpea. The experiment was consisted using two factors- variety and treatments. Two local cultivars viz. BARI Chola-5 and BARI Chola-9 and five treatments e.g. T0 = control, T1 = 2 kg B/ha, T2 = 2 kg Mo/ha, T3= seed priming with Mo (1g/l water), T4 = foliar spray of B (0.5 g/l water) + seed priming with Mo (1g/l water), and T5 = 2 kg B/ha + seed priming with Mo (1g/l water) were considered for this study. A randomized complete block design (RCBD) was adopted with three replications. Significant variation was observed between the varieties and here the BARI Chola-9 produced the higher seed yield (2.47 ton/ ha). Treatment showed significant effect on the yield attributes and yield of chickpea. The highest plant height, number of branches/ plant, number of pods/ plant, nodule/ plant, number of effective pod/ plant, length of the pod, 1000-grain weight, seed yield, straw yield, biological yield was obtained from T4. The highest seed yield (2.68 ton/ ha) was recorded from BARI Chola-9 with foliar spray of boron and seed priming with Mo. The results indicated that foliar spray of B and seed priming with molybdenum can be beneficial in improving growth and yield of chickpea variety BARI Chola-9. J.

A field study was conducted to determine the potentials of moist (70% soil moisture) and saturated (> 100% soil moisture) soil conditions and organic amendments of rice straw compost (RSC), mustard meal (MM) and trichocompost (TC) on the selected rice varieties of BR 3, local BRRI dhan 29 and BRRI dhan 74 in relation to the growth and yield attributes of rice varieties. The rates of amendments were 0, 4, 8 t/ha for RSC; 0, 3, 6 t/ha for MM and 0, 2.5, 5 t/ha for TC. The maximum grain yield of 8.71 t/ha was attained from the RSC4ML100 and 8.58 t/ha from RSC4ML70 treatments. The moist condition of soil had almost similar effects on the number of productive tillers, grain yield, number of filled and fissured grains, 1000-grain weight and harvest index as compared to saturated condition along with the doses of RSC, MM and TC. The RSC (4 t/ha) was the superior treatment with respect to the growth and yield components of rice followed by the treatments of TC (2.5 t/ha) and MM (3 t/ha), irrespective of rice varieties and moisture levels.

The experiment was conducted during December 2012 to June 2013 in the farmer’s field adjacent to Bangladesh Agricultural University (BAU), a village named Boira under Sadar Upazilla of Mymensingh to study the yield performance of Boro rice in response to USG. The experiment comprised two rice varieties viz. Binadhan-5 and BRRI dhan29 and seven levels of USG viz.i) prilled urea (PU) 280 kg ha-1(control),ii)USG 1.8g/4 hills in every alternate row applied at 5 cm depth, iii) USG 1.8g/4 hills in every alternate row applied at 10 cm depth, iv) USG 2.7g/4 hills in every alternate row applied at 5 cm depth, v)USG 2.7g/4 hills in every alternate row applied at 10 cm depth, vi) USG 3.6g/4 hills in every alternate row applied at 5 cm depth and vii)USG 3.6g/4 hills in every alternate row applied at 10 cm depth. The experiment was laid out in a randomized complete block design with three replications. Variety, level of USG and their interaction exerted significant influence on yield contributing characters and yield of Boro rice. BRRI dhan29 produced higher number of effective tillers hill-1 and heaviest grain than that of Binadhan-5. As a result of superior yield parameters, BRRI dhan29 gave higher yield (7.67 t ha-1) than Binadhan-5 (6.52 t ha-1). In case of USG, the highest number of total tillers hill-1, grains panicle-1, 1000-grain weight and grain yield (7.59 t ha-1) were obtained from USG @ 3.6g/4 hills in every alternate row applied at 5cm depth. The lowest values of all the parameters were obtained from PU. Considering their interaction effect, BRRI dhan29 with USG 3.6g/4 hills in every alternate row applied at 5cm depth produced best yield attributes, grain (8.38 t ha-1) and straw yield (9.26 t ha-1). The lowest performance was observed in Binadhan-5 with PU. The overall results suggest that farmers can be advised to cultivate BRRI dhan29 fertilized with USG 3.6g/4 hills in every alternate row at 5 cm depth for getting highest yield in Boro season under the agro-climate condition of the study area.J.

Abstract Climate change will increase the occurrence of salinity in agricultural land along with the coastal areas. One of the technologies to reduce salinity is NaCl pretreatment. This study aimed to evaluate salinity treatment's effect during nurseries on the growth of lowland rice seedlings. There were three separate experiments, and all the experiments used Randomized Complete Block Design. In the first experiment, local black rice seeds (var. Jelitheng) was used. The nursery was carried out at three salinity levels, i.e. 0.2, 3 and 5 dS/m. The second experiment was conducted using salt-resistant rice seeds (var. Dendang) and salt susceptible rice seeds (var. IR 64). The salinity levels applied were non-saline (0.2 dS/m) and saline (5 dS/m). The third experiment used rice seedling var. IR 64, with the first factor being the salinity level (0.2 and 5 dS/m) and the second factor was a wet nursery and dry nursery. In general, the results from the three experiments showed that giving salinity levels of 3-5 dS/m in several rice varieties improved seedling performance. Although salinity during nursery could increase the concentration of Na+ and decrease the concentration of K+ in leaves, salinity during nursery increased the seedlings fresh weight, and dry weight increased the number of seedlings leaves and increased the concentration of leaf chlorophyll. The better seedlings growth variable in the saline nursery will help the plants cope with salinity in the later growth stage in the field.

Physiological Characters

The Four levels of sodium chloride induced salinity levels, 0, 6, 9 and 12 dSm-1 were imposed at 25 days after planting of six rice mutants. Results indicated that morphological parameters such as plant height and leaf area, dry mass production in different plant parts such as root, stem, leaf and grain yield hill-1, physiological characters such as biological yield and harvest index, yield attributes such as number of effective tillers hill-1, number of grains panicle-1 and 1000-grain weight, mineral ions in leaves such as potassium and calcium were decreased with gradual increasing of salinity levels while number of non-effective tillers hill-1 and Na content of leaves were increased with increasing soil salinity. The highest value of the above parameters was observed in control and the lowest values of them were observed at 12 dSm-1. Generally genotypes having ability to exclude Na from leaves were found salt tolerant in respect of dry mass production in different plant parts and vice versa. Among the genotypes, the dry matter production and yield loss due to salinity was less in RM250-170 and RM250-2080 than that in the others, which further revealed that RM250-170 and RM250-2080 had a greater tolerance to salinity than RM350-130, RM300- 280, RM250-1080 and IRATOM. The rank of salinity tolerance was: RM250-2080 > RM250-170 > RM250-1080 > IRATOM > RM300-280 > RM350-130.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jesnr.v6i1.22073 J. Environ.
