(Botanical Name:- Pennisetum glaucum)

·     कुल:- ग्रेमिनी या पोएसी

(Family:- Gramineae or Poaceae)

·         गुणसूत्र संख्या:- 2n = 2x = 14

(Chromosome Numbers:- 2n = 2x = 14)

·         उत्पत्ति केन्द्र:- अफ्रीका का सहेल क्षेत्र

(Center of Origin:- Sahel zone of Africa)

2. जातियाँ (Species):-

3. पुष्पीय बायोलॉजी (Floral Biology):-

·         बाजरा का पुष्पक्रम एक संयुक्त शीर्षस्थ स्पाइक होता है जिसे पैनिकल कहते हैं। पैनिकल की लंबाई 25 – 30 cm व व्यास 7 – 9 cm होते हैं।

(The inflorescence of bajra is a compound apical spike called as panicle. Panicle is 25 - 30 cm in length and 7 - 9 cm in diameter.)

·         पुष्पक्रम में एक केंद्रीय रैकिस होता है जो रोमों द्वारा ढका रहता है।

(The inflorescence consists of a central rachis covered by hairs.)

·         बाजरे की प्रत्येक स्पाइक में अनेक फैसिकल्स अपने – अपने वृन्त के द्वारा रैकिस से जुड़ी हुई रहती हैं।

(In each spike of bajra, many fascicles are attached to the rachis through their respective stalks.)

·         प्रत्येक फैसिकल में 3 जोड़ी स्पाइकिकायें पायी जाती हैं जो ग्लूम्स द्वारा ढकी रहती हैं।

(In each fascicle, 3 pairs of spikelets are found, which are covered by glumes.)

·         प्रत्येक स्पाइकिका में 2 पुष्प होते हैं जिनमें से ऊपरी पुष्प द्विलिंगी तथा निचला पुष्प पुंकेसरी होता है।

(Each spikelet has 2 flowers, of which the upper one is bisexual and the lower one is staminate.)

·         प्रत्येक पुष्प में 2 ह्रासित परिदल होते हैं जिन्हें लोडिक्यूल्स कहते हैं।

(Each flower has 2 reduced tepals called as lodicules.)

·         प्रत्येक पुष्प में 1 लेम्मा व 1 पेलिया होते हैं।

(Each flower has 1 lemma and 1 palea.)

·         द्विलिंगी पुष्प में 3 पुंकेसर व 1 अण्डप होते हैं। अण्डप में 1 बीजांड होता है।

(The bisexual flower has 3 stamens and 1 carpel. The carpel has 1 ovule.)

·         पुंकेसरी पुष्प में केवल 3 पुंकेसर ही होते हैं।

(The staminate flower has only 3 stamens.)

·     पुष्पचित्र (Floral Diagram):- 

·         परागण (Pollination):-

Ø  प्राकृतिक रूप से बाजरा एक परपरागित फसल है। इसमें वायु के द्वारा परागण होता है।

(Naturally bajra is a cross pollinated crop. It is pollinated by air.)

Ø  बाजरा में स्त्रीपूर्वता पाये जाने के कारण इसमें लगभग 80% परपरागण होता है व शेष 20% स्वपरागण होता है। इस प्रकार बाजरा एक परपरागित फसल है।

(Due to the presence of protogyny in bajra, about 80% cross pollination and the remaining 20% self-pollination takes place. Thus bajra is a cross-pollinated crop.)

Ø  पुष्पन पैनिकल के शीर्ष से 1/3 भाग नीचे से शुरू होता है तथा ऊपर व नीचे दोनों तरफ बढ़ता है।

(Flowering start from the 1/3 part below of the top of the panicle and progresses on both the upper and the lower directions.)

Ø  द्विलिंगी पुष्प में वर्तिकाग्र पहले निकलती है व 2 – 3 दिनों में पुष्पन पूर्ण हो जाता है। इसके पश्चात परागकोष बाहर निकल आते हैं व इसे प्रथम नर प्रावस्था कहते हैं।

(In bisexual flowers, the stigma comes first and the flowering is completed in 2 - 3 days. After this, the anther comes out and it is called the first male phase.)

Ø  पुष्पन के 5वें दिन पुंकेसरी पुष्प के परागकोष बाहर निकल आते हैं व इसे द्वितीयक नर प्रावस्था कहते हैं।

(On the 5th day of flowering, the anthers of the stamens come out and this is called the secondary male phase.)

Ø  पुष्पन का समय 8pm से 2am के मध्य होता है।

(The flowering time is between 8pm to 2am.)

·         फल (Fruit):- कैरिओप्सिस (इसमें बीजचोल व फलभित्ति आपस में संलयित होते हैं।

[Caryopsis (In this seed coat and fruit wall are fused with each other.)]

4. प्रजनन उद्देश्य (Breeding Objectives):-
