Abstract Cotton fiber is a specialized unicellular structure useful for the study of cellular differentiation and development. Heat shock proteins (HSPs) have been shown to be involved in various developmental processes. Microarray data analysis five Gossypium hirsutum genotypes revealed high transcript levels GhHSP90 GhHSP70 genes at different stages development, indicating their importance process. Further, we identified 26 55 members HSP90 HSP70 gene families G. . The treatment specific...
Bees use sun’s position for navigation and thus a solar eclipse may affect this capability. Present study was conducted during partial on June 21, 2020 at Ludhiana, Punjab. Apis mellifera L foragers’ activity the hive entrance recorded through digital bee counter. Bees’ increased normally, i.e. 771 823 bees/ 15 mins coming in going out of hive, respectively before start eclipsephase. At peak obscuration it decreased slightly but non-significantly. Changes temperature andhumidity might have...
Abstract Stingless bees constitute an important group of bee diversity providing a vital ecological service i.e. pollination. From India, nine species stingless have been reported out which Tetragonula iridipennis Smith is widely distributed. Studies revealed that the majority (86.67%) these bees’ nests were present in brick walls and remaining (13.33%) cavities hollow tree trunks. Most colonies nested at height 3.50 m from ground. (56.67%) had entrances oriented to east. No distinct...
A field experiment on African marigold (TagetserectaL.) was conducted during winter season of 2014-15 to study the effect NPK, biofertilizers and plant spacings growth yield (Tagetes erecta Linn). The treatment combinations F6 100 % RDF NPK + Azotobacter PSB recorded maximum longevity intact flower (27.93), average diameter (7.37 cm), weight (8.96 g) number flowers per (56.54), (515.62 g), plot (11.93 kg) highest ha (184.13 q). spacing D3 (60× 60 cm) registered significant (5 %) flower,...
Chilli (Capsicum annuum L.) is an important spice crop severely affected by the virus causes leaf curl symptoms. Efficient transmission of Leaf Curl Virus was done using a standardized buffer for sap inoculation to chilli plants. In present investigation, we have used three simple methods i.e. syringe, rubbing and immersion (dip) found reproducible when from infected plants inoculated onto healthy Out used, syringe most efficient method transmission. Syringe caused severe symptoms followed...
Dystocia in buffalo due to amorphous globosus monster, relieved by laparohysterotomy is reported. Fetus was explored have actual status of morphology and visceral organs Exploration the fetus didn't reveal any kind identifiable viscera.
Bees are the important natural resources, play a crucial role in maintaining diversity and sustaining food security. In past couple of years, these tiny animals facing problems due to various factors like climate change, loss habitat, bee pasturage, reduced immunity, pesticide poisoning, etc. Among these, insecticides, particularly ones belonging class neonicotinoids have been blamed worldwide. Thiamethoxam is one among insecticides this group. It systemic insecticide whose residues reported...
Honey bees provide key ecosystem services i.e., pollination but are functioning under various biotic and abiotic stresses. Among stresses, thiamethoxam has been criticized worldwide. Since no scientific study on its sub-lethal effects honey conducted in India, the present work was carried out at Department of Entomology, Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana for two seasons during 2017-19. The median lethal dietary dose (LDD50) upon chronically feeding doses 10 days a group adult Apis...
A field experiment was conducted at the Instructional Farm of Sardar Patel University, Balaghat (M.P.), during kharif season 2020-21, To evaluate influence "Impact nutrient management on green pod yield and cost ratio okra." Totally 08 different treatments consisting organic inorganic fertilizers, alone in both combination have been tried. Among practices, The application significantly enhanced growth parameters viz. like plant height, Days to 50% flowering, number leaves, nodes, length...
