Abstract The gut bacteria exert phenotypic traits to the host but factors which determine bacterial profile (GBP) is poorly understood. This study aimed understand effect of ethnicity and geography on GBP Mongoloid Proto-Australoid tribes India. Fecal diversity was studied in fifteen tribal populations representing four geographic regions (Assam, Telangana, Manipur Sikkim) by DGGE followed NGS analysis Illumina MiSeq platform. Geography diet had significant Indian dominated Prevotella ....
Actinomycetes have provided a wealth of bioactive secondary metabolites with interesting activities such as antimicrobial, antiviral and anticancer. The study aims at isolation, characterization the antimicrobial potentiality Streptomyces sannanensis SU118 obtained from Phoomdi, unique habitat Loktak Lake Manipur, India. An actinomycete strain isolated Phoomdi soil India was identified SU118. It is Gram-positive filamentous bacterium which exhibits activity only against bacteria, while...
Abstract Fragrant agarwood, arguably the costliest wood in world, is formed by plant-fungal interactions Aquilaria spp. However, very little known about this fragrant outcome of interaction. Therefore, mimicking ancient traditions agarwood production Assam (Northeast India), a chemometric assessment agarwood-fungus interaction was made chemical profiling (GC-MS) coupled with statistical analysis (principal component, correlation network analysis) across three platforms, viz . callus,...
Recently,carbon-based nanomaterials have been attracted much interest among the scientific community due to its extraordinary properties and applications. Mostly fluorescent carbon are prepared from commercially available precursors. In this work, develop a new strategy for producing nanoparticles (carbon dots) using phosphoric acid as an activating agent water hyacinth present in Assam, India. These show green fluorescence under UV light, sizes found below 10 nm. dots applied sensor...
Seeds of plants are a confirmation their next generation and come associated with unique microbia community. Vertical transmission this microbiota signifies the importance these organisms for healthy seedling thus healthier both symbionts. Seed endophytic bacterial community composition is guided by plant genotype many environmental factors. In north-east India, within narrow geographical region, several indigenous rice genotypes cultivated across broad agroecosystems having standing water...
The present study was to develop bioplastic from banana peels and characteristic its physical properties. biofilm prepared by casting method using glycerol (10%) as a plasticizer corn starch co-biopolymer. with 8% (T4) showed the highest tensile strength (0.388 MPa), while 10% (T5) had water solubility best vapor transmission rate. films' biodegradability, measured carbon dioxide evolution, gradual increase day 7 90. elongation (9.77%), maximum load (2.48 N), strong along intermediate...
Sirtuins are protein deacetylases that play a protective role in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), as well many other diseases. Absence of sirtuins can lead to hyperacetylation both nuclear and mitochondrial proteins leading metabolic dysregulation. The post-translational modifications (PTMs) known crosstalk among each bring about complex phenotypic outcomes. Various PTM types such acetylation, ubiquitination, phosphorylation, so on, drive transcriptional regulation metabolism, but crosstalks...
Soil and root samples collected from fields cropped to spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Katepwa) lentil (Lens esculenta Eston) at 11 sites across four soil zones of Saskatchewan were analyzed for spore numbers, level vesicular–arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) colonization, VAM species. The number spores detected in field soils ranged 78 272 per 100 g soil. Vesicular–arbuscular mycorrhizae colonized all the study sites, but levels colonization two crops varied site differences more...
