In the present investigation, advanced breeding lines of fieldpea were screened for diseases (powdery mildew and rust) resistance under natural epiphytotic conditions, yield traits and reported linked molecular markers. Parental polymorphic STS markers A5, AD 59, AD60, PD10650, PBA 0398, AD 237 linked to powdery mildew and AD146 marker linked to rust resistance showed no correlation with the disease reaction and thus could not be used for resistance breeding program. The best five lines MHT-15-3, MHT-15-4, MHT-15-2, MHD-3-6-2, MHD-4-1-1 with significantly higher yield than the superior check variety Prakash had pod yield ranging from 3128 to 2157 kg/ha and seed yield ranging 2814 to 2022 kg/ha. Promising advanced breeding lines with field tolerance to both diseases and significantly higher yield were also identified adapted for the NEH region. © 2024 Indian Society of Pulses Research and Development (ISPRD).

Psychological stress and job satisfaction in middle management executives: a test of job demand control support model
(Inderscience Publishers, 2022) Priya Singh; Prabhas Bhardwaj; Susheel Kumar Sharma; Anil Kumar Agrawal
Occupational stress is one of the most critical factors related to the employees’ well-being in any organisation. Employees working in managerial positions are more prone to work-related stress because of the nature of the job and the responsibilities associated with the position. Job demands, control and support at the workplace are vital factors that affect stress and job satisfaction in employees. This research aims to study if the job demand control support model can explain psychological stress and job satisfaction. Two hundred ten middle management executives of an Indian public telecom organisation participated in the study. ANOVA is used for the data analysis. The study results reported no difference in psychological stress of employees in different job categories as defined by the job demand control support model. Job control and support have a significant effect on job satisfaction. There was no significant interaction effect on either psychological stress or job satisfaction.
