Tribulus terrestris L., commonly called puncture vine and gokhru, is an important member of Zygophyllaceae. The species highly in context to therapeutic uses provides active principles responsible for treatment various diseases also used as tonic. It widely distributed tropical regions India the world. However, status its genetic diversity remained concealed due lack research work this species. In present study, structure different populations T. from north was examined at molecular level...
Prediction of agriculture yield is a job that requires unification knowledge from several areas such as data mining, statistics and agriculture. Subject crop prediction has been very popular among various organizations working in agriculture, producers etc. P rediction helps managing the storage crops well it directs transportation decisions, risk management issues related to crops. Pattern rainfall temperature aredynamic due global warming, resulting undergoing impingement on productivity....
At present male meiosis and pollen fertility have been studied in 17 species of dicots from different localities Rajasthan. Varied cytotype reports Capparis decidua (n=18), Ipomoea pes-tigridis (n=30) Triumfetta rhomboidea (n=8) reported for the first time world level. Meanwhile, Orobanche ramosa (n=12) is diploid report India. Present chromosome counts remaining already by other researchers. The course varies normal to abnormal populations species. anomalous taxa are marked with meiotic...

Novel Corona Virus Disease popularly known as the COVID 19, has had a significant impact on lives of people around world after crossing borders from China. It not only took life millions but also imparted mental disorders among population. The phenomenon led to massive reaction public, news channels providing live updates raised anxiety level by several times, leading numerous health issues diverse Thus, paper aims identify long-term effects pandemic population world. For purpose, both...
Lamiaceae is a requisite depository of many important medicinal herbs, distributed all over the world. The detailed meiotic studies, firstly are helpful in solving taxonomic and evolutionary enigmas secondly provide best chemotypes for further exploration conservatory purposes. Male meiosis 29 species 54 populations belonging to 18 genera has been undertaken first time from Sirmaur district Himachal Pradesh falling Western Himalayas. Euploid cytotypes reported Ajuga parviflora (n=8x=32),...
An experiment was carried out during kharif season 2015 at Student’s research farm, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana on a loamy sand soil under irrigated conditions. The is conducted to evaluate the “Productivity of Pigeon pea (Cajanus cajan L.) Different Row Spacing and Genotypes”. field laid in factorial randomized block design (RBD) with four replications. treatment consisted five planting geometries viz. 45 cm x 28 cm, 50 25 60 21 75 17 90 14 two genotypes PAU 881 (indeterminate)...
The genus Saussurea comprises many species with highly medicinal, religious or other economical values. chromosome number in the ranges from 2n = 24 to 108, based on x 12, 13, 16, 17, but primary base is still not clear. present meiotic study cover 8 (14 populations) of Northwest Himalayas, and add new varied cytotypes, as an attempt solve enigmatic cytogenetic variations genus. numbers auriculata (n 16) world, while S. costus 17), jacea 17) roylei reveal cytotypes at world level. Besides,...
The purpose of this study is to examine the role image congruence (match/mismatch between one's self-image and a product's image) face consciousness (a person's willingness enhance reputation in society) determining consumer behavior towards use smartphones across India Canada. Data were collected from Indian Canadian respondents. Confirmatory factor analysis structural equation modeling employed test proposed model. results revealed that consumers are more conscious give importance their...
A field experiment was conducted to find out 1) optimum drip irrigation and fertigation rate realize potential yield of turmeric; 2) quantify water saving improvement under over control during 2014–15. The laid in randomized complete block design, keeping combinations three {60, 80 100 reference evapotranspiration (ETo)} 100% recommended dose fertilizers (RDF), i.e. 62.5, 25, 25 kg/ha N, P2O5 K2O, respectively} with an extra (surface flood soil application RDF). Drip at ETo recorded maximum...
The genus Pedicularis L. comprises many medicinal species in Sirmaur district of Himachal Pradesh, the Northwest Himalayan range.In present study, male meiotic studies have been carried out six and revealed n=8 chromosome number all taxa.The (n=8) P. heterodonta punctata are new to world, while oederi reveals first report for Indian populations.Besides, a B structural heterozygosity were reported time hoffmeisteri pectinata, respectively.Further, anomalies, like chromatin bridges,...
Present paper deals with the cytomorphological study of 4 genera and 5 species belonging to family Zygophyllaceae collected from various localities Rajasthan. Three cytomorphovariants Tribulus terrestris have been observed 2n=24, 36 48. Peganum harmala 2n=12 (based on x=6) is reported for first time world level, earlier based x=12. The presence B-chromosomes also makes report level. Fagonia cretica (2n=22), alatus (2n=24) Zygophyllum simplex (2n=16) cytologically worked out India.
The present study pertains to the cytomorphology of 19 species belonging nine families subclass Gamopetalae from Hamirpur district (H. P.). Out these, 5 are new or varied chromosomes reports. Campanula benthamii (2n=2x=28) and Leucas hyssopifolia (2n=2x=22) first ever chromosome counts for species. Spilanthes acmella (2n=6x=78) Borreria articularis (2n=4x=52) cytotypes.
