Pointed gourd (Trichosanthes dioica Roxb.) (2n = 2x 22) is a dioecious cucurbit vegetable and green fruit that edible after cooking. Consumers prefer to consume seedless or less-seeded because seeds are unpalatable due their hard coats. Therefore, the cross compatibility between diploid induced tetraploid will be helpful for production. Thus, present study was conducted using mature were immersed in 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.5% colchicine 24, 48, 72 h induce tetraploids. These tetraploids used as...

The efficiency of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) in combination with postharvest treatment on the shelf-life, physiochemical attributes, color, and nutrition pointed gourd was studied after storing refrigerated (low temperature, LT) ambient (room RT) conditions. Fresh fruits were dipped NaOCl solution (0.01% w/v) potassium metabisulphite (KMS) (0.05% w/v), blanched (100°C for 4 min), then packed perforated non-perforated polythene polypropylene packets each type brown paper bags as MAP...

Honey is the most frequently falsified health product due to adulteration in entomological and botanical aspects, becoming a global issue. mostly produced by Apis mellifera (European honeybee), A. cerana (Asian dorsata (Giant honeybee) Bangladesh prone with admixture fraudulent labelling of its source. This research aims develop an authentication tool using molecular biochemical methods, for detecting honey at origin. Honeybee samples were collected from ten localities based on mustard...

Highly nutritive and antioxidants-enriched okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) gets sub-optimal field yield due to the irregular germination coupled with non-synchronized harvests. Hence, research aimed at assessing combined impact of seed priming field-level gibberellic acid (GA3) foliar spray on post-harvest quality okra. The lab studies were conducted using a complete randomized design (CRD), while trials performed following factorial block (RCBD) three replications. Okra seeds subjected ten...

Strawberry is one of the most lucrative antioxidants and phytochemicals enriched temperate fruits. Nevertheless, good-quality fruit production requires special soil management practices like mulching other strategies in tropical sub-tropical regimes with short dry winters. In present research, strawberry var. BARI Strawberry-3 was cultivated using Asian watermoss (AW), water hyacinth (WH), paddy straw (PS), black polythene (BP), silver (SP) along control at weather-inclined southern part...

Datashak (Amaranthus lividus) are climate-smart, stress-resistant, C4 leafy vegetables. Fourteen datashak genotypes were evaluated in three replicates during summer season at Bangabandhu Shiekh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University. Results revealed highly significant differences among indicating a wide range of variability. Considering genetic parameters selection could be performed based on total biomass per plant (TBPP), shoot weight (SW), stem (StW), and length (SL) for improving the...

Abstract Food and nutrition security are essential for accomplishing sustainable development goals, a growing population requires various food sources to address hunger nutrition. Indigenous vegetables nutritious, healthy, adaptable local conditions, making them potential resource. Thus, this study aimed evaluate the nutritional richness of indigenous by comparing content commonly grown like Chenopodium album (Bathua), Coccinia grandis (Telakucha), Amaranthus viridis (Shaknotey), Moringa...
