SHAHID SHAUKAT; S. Z. HUSAIN Abstract: A Monte Carlo algorithm is proposed to assi on a new or unclassified operational taxonomic unit (O.T.U.), with variable characters, to the group it is closest to. The method involves a bootstrap resampling plan. The algorithm is limited to binary data but may easily be extended to cope with data sets involving qualitative as well as quantitative characters 1992-06-20T00:00:00Z http://localhost:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/16852 Title: EVALUATION OF SELECTED GERMPLASM OF MUNGBEAN (VIGNA RADUTA( L) WILCZEK) Authors: A. GHAFOOR; M. ZUBAIR; B.A. MALIK; S.M.IQBAL Abstract: One hundred and twelve mungbean genotypes selected from a broad based local as well as exotic germplasm during last three years, were evaluated for agronomic characters and incidence of yellow mosaic and leaf crinkle virus under natural infection conditiöns. Twenty eight genotypes uere found to be superior on the basis of yield potential and resistance/tolerance to Y MV and LCV. A high yielding line (NCM 201) showed resistance to both viral diseases. Maximum CV was observed for pods per plant, biological yield per plant and grain yield per plant indicating greater scope of selection for these traits. A strong correlation of yield was observed with pods per plant and biological yield per plant. Large scale testing of selected lines and their utilization in breeding programme would be of great use in mungbean improvement. 1992-06-20T00:00:00Z http://localhost:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/16851 Title: IPOMOEA SINDICA STAPF, SCINDICUS STOCKS AND IPOMOEA ERIOCARPA R. BRO (CONVOLVULACEAE): A CLARIFICATION. Authors: SURAYYA KHATOON; S.Z.HUSSAIN Abstract: Ipomoea sindica Stapf is reinstated as a species distinct from I. eriocarpa R. Bro on the basis of chemotaxonomical and micromorphok)gical evidences. Further, it is made clear that I. sindica Stapf is not based on Convolvulus scindicus Stocks. 1992-06-20T00:00:00Z http://localhost:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/16850 Title: GENERIC LIMITS IN GENTIANA (GENTIANACEAE) AND RELATED GENERA IN PAKISTAN AND ADJOINING AREAS ALONGWITH A NEW GENUS KURRAMIANA Authors: SAOOD OMER; M.QAISER Abstract: The genus Gentiana L. (s.l.) IS a heteromorphic assemblage. A synthetic approach is adopted to (reat Gentiana L. (s.l.) from Pakistan and adjoining areas by utilizing the data from palynology, seed morphology and chemistry. Nine genera viz„ Cbninalis Adans., Gentianodes Love & Löve, Qaisera Omer, Aliopsis Omer & Qalser, Gentianopsis Ma, Aloitis Raftn., C01nast0'na Toyok., Jaeschkea Kurz and a new genus Kun•cuniana Omer & Qaiser have been recognized. Gentiana L. (s.str.) and Genaanella Moench (s.stT.) do not occur in Pakistan and adjoining areas. The generic limits and their affinities of all the taxa have been discussed. A new genus Kun•cuniana Omer & Qaiser IS described, and compared in detail with other related crenera. The numerical analysis suooests its affinities with the genus Jaeschkea Kurz. 1992-06-20T00:00:00Z
