SUMMARY The potential of cyanobacteria-based compost formulations was evaluated in cotton crop at two agro-ecological locations (Nagpur and Sirsa) as plant growth promoting (PGP) biocontrol agents. Compost-based fortified with Calothrix sp. or Anabaena enhanced germination fresh weight plants, microbiological activity by 10–15%, besides increased available nitrogen (by 20–50%) soil Nagpur. In the fungi-infected fields Sirsa, – T. viride biofilmed formulation performed best, recording 11.1%...
We investigated on important parameters of induced resistance in hydroponic tomato ( Solanum lycopersicum ) against Ralstonia solanacearum using the elicitors chitosan (CHT), salicylic acid (SA), and jasmonic (JA). The increase total phenolic content roots by was significantly higher than control. Most pronounced lignin synthesis triggered SA followed CHT. At 24 h post‐elicitation (hpe), activity phenylalanine ammonia lyase 4.5 times control elicited peroxidase about 86 nkat/mg protein at...
This study is a unique report of the utilization Trichoderma strains collected from even tree barks for rice plant growth, its health management, and paddy straw degradation. Seven different spp. were characterized according to morphological molecular tools. Two isolated strains, namely hebeiensis erinaceum , outperformed other strains. Both controlled four important pathogens, i.e., Rhizoctonia solani (100%), Sclerotium oryzae (84.17%), rolfsii (66.67%), delphinii (76.25%). Seed bio-priming...
Abstract Bacterial blight (BB) disease and submergence due to flash flood are the two major constraints for achieving higher yield from rainfed lowland rice. Marker-assisted backcross breeding was followed develop tolerant durable BB resistant variety in background of popular cultivar ‘Swarna’. Four resistance genes viz., Xa4 , xa5 xa13 Xa21 Sub1 QTL tolerance were incorporated into mega variety. Foreground selection five target performed using closely linked markers tracked each...
Many writers argue that it is necessary to develop critical thinking skills in business students because these are needed deal with the increasing complexities of real-life problems. Although goal appears be laudable, not always clear how go about achieving it. In this article, authors describe active learning experiences a course on negotiations serve dual purpose teaching negotiate and sharpen their critical-thinking skills. current atmosphere resource constraints, unlikely separate...
Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is an economically important plant, valued all over the world. The existing variation among 16 promising cultivars as observed through differential rhizome yield (181.9 to 477.3 g) was proved have a genetic basis using different markers such karyotype, 4C nuclear DNA content and random amplified polymorphic (RAPD). karyotypic analysis revealed distribution of A, B, C, D E type chromosomes represented by karyotype formulas. A significant recorded in ginger...
We have isolated three novel strains of Trichoderma (two T. harzianum and one atroviride) from wild mushroom tree bark, evaluated their biocontrol potential against Sclerotium delphinii infecting cultivated cotton seedlings. strain CICR-G, as a natural mycoparasite on tree-pathogenic Ganoderma sp. exhibited the highest disease suppression ability. This isolate was formulated into talcum-based product pathogen in non-sterile soil. conidiated profusely under conditions that are non-conducive...
The business college at University of West Florida is currently in the throes implementing an assessment initiative to develop student learning outcomes, design devices measure learning, analyze measurement results identify shortfalls, and establish feedback mechanisms modify curriculum address shortfalls. authors reflected on current state process, including initial findings corrective actions taken, compared lessons learned about assessing critical thinking general with found literature.
Bacterial blight (BB) of rice caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. is a major disease in many growing countries. Pyramided lines carrying two BB resistance gene combinations (Xa21+xa13 and Xa21+xa5) were developed lowland cultivar Jalmagna background through backcross breeding integrating molecular markers. In each generation, markers closely linked to the genes used select plants possessing target genes. Background selection was continued those resistant until BC(3) generation. Plants having...
Ranidhan is a popular late-maturing rice variety of Odisha state, India. The farmers the state suffer heavy loss in years with flash floods as sensitive to submergence. Bacterial blight (BB) disease major yield-limiting factor, and susceptible disease. BB resistance genes Xa21, xa13, xa5, along Sub1 QTL, for submergence stress tolerance were transferred into using marker-assisted backcross breeding approach. Foreground selection direct closely linked markers detected progenies carrying all...
Genotype x environment interaction (GEI) of 42 rice genotypes tested over nine seasons was analyzed to identify stable resistance blast disease incited by Magnaporthe oryzae. The were raised in uniform nursery a randomized complete block design with three replications. GEI following the regression models as well additive main effects and multiplicative (AMMI) model. AMMI analysis variance revealed that first two principal component axes (IPCA) explained 37.28 33.47% 14.63 14.02% degrees...
Genetic diversity was evaluated among 14 cultivars of Catharanthus roseus using RAPD and ISSR markers. The primers resulted in the amplification 56 bands, which 46 (82%) bands were polymorphic Four amplified 31 loci out 17 are monomorphic. Jaccard's similarity derived from combined marker system showed that varieties First Kiss Coral Cooler Orchid most closely related cultivars, with 98% similarity. In dendrogram constructed on basis both data two clear clusters obtained. smaller cluster...
