@RameshJoshi adbd and su are totally independent from each other. Each of them does not use the other on it's own. On a rooted device (where adbddoes not run in root mode) however you can inside the shell provided via adb (adb shell) execute commands with root permissions via su but that is a different topic because in this case you as the user use su, the adb shell is just the "stage" you are working on.
