Begomoviruses (family Geminiviridae) are single-stranded DNA viruses transmitted by the whitefly Bemisia tabaci. Many economically important diseases in crops caused begomoviruses, particularly tropical and subtropical environments. These include betasatellite-associated begomoviruses causing cotton leaf curl disease (CLCuD) that causes significant losses to a mainstay of economy Pakistan, cotton. RNA interference (RNAi) or gene silencing is natural defense response plants against invading...
ABSTRACTThe present study was aimed at assessing drinking water quality regarding arsenic (As) and its impact on health from Mailsi (Punjab), Pakistan. Forty-four groundwater samples were collected two sites, Sargana Mailsi. Arsenic other cations determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometer, whereas the anions either through titration or spectrophotometer. The results revealed that dominant HCO3− Cl−, Ca+2 cation, overall chemistry of area CaMgHCO3− type. concentrations high, ranging 11...
Continuous application of phosphate (P) mineral to soil renders apatite addition during each crop growing season which is great concern from a sustainable agriculture viewpoint. Use efficient solubilizing microbes (PSB) one the most effective ways solubilize this in soil. The current study targeted hydroxyapatite mines explore, isolate and characterize P solubilizers Efficiency isolated rock (hydroxyapatite) tri-calcium (TCP) as well indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)...
Background: Non-toxic, non-volatile organic acid, gluconic acid (pentahydroxycaproic acid) is found in abundance honey and plants wines. Gluconic its salts are used widely food, feed, pharmaceuticals, textiles, many other industries.Methods: In the current investigation, Aspergillus niger was utilized for production submerged fermentation. Furthermore, hyperproduction, fungus exposed to MNNG (100 µg/ml) 15 minutes. strain (parent mutant) tested identified capability of producing acid. We...
A wild aquatic plant, Eichhornia Crassipes, and polyethylene have been converted into liquid product thermo-catalytically cost effectively through co-pyrolysis using batch steel pyrolyzer. The Fe CaCO3 catalysts were obtained as wastes from various mechanical processes. catalytic process was compared with non-catalytic pyrolysis. effect of reaction conditions investigated in order to find out the optimized conditions. It found that favorable 450 °C temperature 1-h time at a heating rate 1...
Abstract A continuous flow vapour diffusion chamber has been designed and constructed so that ice nuclei can be activated over ranges of temperature supersaturation similar to those found in natural clouds. conventional filter‐processing was also built for carrying out comparative measurements. Simultaneous use the two chambers under conditions shown filter method leads an underestimate concentration air sample. The ratio simultaneous measurements is strongly dependent on Aitken sample...
The purpose of this research is to study the effects quarry rock dust (QRD) and steel fibers (SF) inclusion on fresh, mechanical, microstructural properties fly ash (FA) ground granulated blast furnace slag (SG)-based geopolymer concrete (GPC) exposed elevated temperatures. Such types ternary mixes were prepared by blending waste materials from different industries, including QRD, SG, FA, with alkaline activator solutions. multiphysical models show that binders can enhance mechanical GPC. In...
This study presents the performance of quarry rock dust (QRD) incorporated fly ash (FA) and slag (SG) based geopolymer concretes (QFS-GPC) exposed to ambient elevated temperatures. A total five QFS-GPC mix types were prepared. The quantity FA (50%) was kept constant in all mixes, SG replaced by 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% QRD. fresh, hardened properties viz., workability, compressive strength, splitting tensile flexural strengths, XRD for identification reaction phases evaluated. prepared mixes also...
Plant derived compounds have always been an important source of medicines and received significant attention in recent years due to their diverse pharmacological properties. Millions plant-based herbal or traditional are used cure various types cancers especially activation proliferative genes. The aim the present study was characterize altered attenuated gene expression selected growth factor namely Transforming Beta -1 (TGFβ1) MYC human hepatoma-derived (Huh7) liver cancer cell lines...
Increasing resource-use efficiency is of prime importance in sustainable agriculture. A field study was carried out to improve nitrogen-use (NUE) and radiation-use (RUE) three C4 summer cereals, i.e. Maize, millet, sorghum, under an irrigated arid environment. The results showed that among various cultivars Pearl (maize), 18 BY (millet), Jumbo (sorghum) produced the highest aboveground total dry matters grain yields. NUE RUE were obtained by splitting nitrogen dose 3 times, At sowing at...
A nonlinear thermo-convective Arrhenius Casson fluid flow between two vertical parallel plates is modeled under the actions of exothermic chemical reaction, linear and volumetric thermal concentration expansions. The non dimensional coupled system ordinary differential equations are solved numerically by using Parametric Continuation Method (PCM). numerical results (PCM) method graphically justified with solutions [Formula: see text] package, which presented an excellent agreement each...
Each genotype has an optimum range of temperature for growth and development, when the increases beyond this critical limit, it generates stress which affects its performance adversely. The aim study was evaluate variation exists among genotypes regarding heat stress, 25 maize hybrids were tested at Maize Millets Research Institute, Yusafwala-Sahiwal, Pakistan. studies focused on screening tolerant that are adaptable in agro-climatic conditions Results indicate all significantly affected by...
