PHYSIO-MORPHOLOGICAL RESPONSE OF Capsicum annum TO WATER STRESS AND EXOGENOUS APPLICATION OF PYRABACTIN DAS, BANALATA ABSTRACT The study was carried out in the Horticulture farm and laboratories of Sher-eBangla Agricultural University, Dhaka, Bangladesh during the period from November 2012 to February 2013 to study Physio-morphological response of Capsicum annum to water stress and exogenous application of pyrabactin. The experiment consisted of seven treatments, viz., T 1 = 100% optimum water, T 2 = 50% of Optimum water, T 3 = 50% of Optimum water + pyrabactin 50ppm, T 4 = 50% of Optimum water + pyrabactin 100ppm, T 5 = 25% of Optimum water, T 6 = 25% of Optimum water + pyrabactin 50ppm, T 7 = 25% of Optimum water + pyrabactin 100ppm. The experiment was laid out in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with three replications. Among the six treatments of water stress condition except the optimum water condition, results showed that the maximum plant height, number of branch per plant, fresh weight per plant, TDM, number of fruit per plant, fruit length, fruit diameter, indi vidual fruit weight was recorded in T 4 treatment. The maximum yield of fruits per plant (728.3 g) was also recorded from T 4 treatment which was close to the yield of fruit (952.1 g) recorded in T 1 . Comparing with other water stress condition T4 gave the best result and application of pyrabactin minimized water stress affect. So pyrabactin may be use in cultivation to minimize yield reduction in drought condition.

EFFECT OF SPACING AND CORMEL SIZE ON THE GROWTH AND YIELD OF MUKHIKACHU (Colocasia esculenta L. Scott) SIKDER, RIPON KUMAR A study was conducted at the Horticultural Farm of Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from February 2012 to March 2013. Cormels of mukhikachu cv. Bilashi were used for the research work. The experiment consisted of two factors: Factor A: Plant spacing (4 levels) as- S : 60 cm × 20 cm, S 2 : 60 cm × 30 cm, S size (3 levels) as- C 1 3 : 60 cm × 40 cm and S : Small size (5.0-7.5 g), C 4 1 : 60 cm × 50 cm; Factor B: Cormel 2 : Medium size (7.5-10.0 g) and C : Large size (10.0-12.5 g). The two factors experiment was laid out in Randomized Complete Block Design with three replications. For plant spacing and cormel size, most of the studied characters showed statistically significant variation. The highest yield of corm and cormel per hectare (5.58 and 26.15 ton) was attained from S , whereas the lowest (4.45 and 16.64 ton) from S . In case of cormel size, the highest yield of corm and cormel per hectare (5.87 and 23.89 ton) was found from C 1 , again the lowest (4.39 and 21.10 ton) from C . For interaction effect, the highest weight of corm and cormel per hectare (6.76 and 28.19 ton) was recorded from S 1 , while the lowest (3.96 and 15.16 ton) from S 1 C . It was revealed that 60 cm × 40 cm plant spacing with large size (10.0-12.5 g) cormel was best in consideration of growth and yield of mukhikachu.

INFLUENCE OF PLANT HORMONE, MICRONUTRIENTS, ANTITRANSPIRANT AND POLYTHENE SHED ON SUMMER TOMATO ALAM, MD. JAHANGIR A pot experiment was carried out at Horticulture Farm, Sher-e-Bangla Agricultural University, Dhaka during the period from May 2013 to September 2013. The experiment consisted of two factors: Factor A: P : without polythene shed and P 1 0 : with polythene shed condition; Factor B: foliar application of F : tap water, F 1 : 4-CPA, F 2 : Zn, B, Mn, Se @ 100 ppm : Kaolin @ 2% solution and F : Zn, B, Mn and Se@ 100 ppm, 4-CPA and Kaolin @ 2% solution.

EVALUATION OF FRUIT TREE MANAGEMENT PRACTICES IN HAOR HOMESTEADS OF BANGLADESH OBAIDULLAH, BHUIYAN A. T. M. A study was conducted in Haor area of Ajmiriganj upazila of Habigonj district. There are five unions in Ajmiriganj upazila. The 45 homesteads were surveyed to understand their knowledge regarding homestead fruit cultivation and also identify the present fruit production system. A well structured interview schedule was developed based on objectives of the study. The majority in Bangladesh have lower knowledge on management of homestead fruit production and practices.
