<title>Abstract</title> Fluoride (F⁻) toxicity has become a significant environmental and public health concern globally. Microbial defluoridation offers promising approach to restoring soil health, increasing crop yields, minimizing fluoride bioaccumulation in the food chain. In present experiment, seven bacteria with varied levels of resistance were screened out <italic>in vitro</italic> using tryptone soya agar medium supplemented different grades Sodium (NaF) from composite topsoil...
<title>Abstract</title> Fluoride exposure, even at a low concentration, significantly impairs crop growth and productivity by inhibiting metabolic enzymes disrupting photosynthesis. Addressing this challenge, microbial de-fluoridation emerges as vital strategy to improve soil health, enhance growth, ensure agricultural sustainability. This study analyzed topsoil samples (0–0.2 m depth) from rice fields in three blocks of Purulia district, West Bengal—<italic>Arsha, Jhalda-I</italic>,...
Field trials were conducted at the Gangetic Alluvium of eastern India to find out most suitable sowing time achieve higher yield, comparatively less incidence yellow vein mosaic virus (YVMV) and quality seed okra over four consecutive years having seven times fortnight interval (1st February, 16th 1st March, April, April May). The yield attributing characters differed significantly with different dates. maximum matured pods per plant (14.57) longest pod (18.00 cm) was observed from which...
In India, clubroot caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae Woronin has been present on cabbage and cauliflower crops (Brassica oleracea L. var. capitata botrytis) for nearly 80 years in the Eastern Himalayan Darjeeling Hills of West Bengal South Indian Nilgiri Tamil Nadu. Since early 1980s, P. spread rapidly most popular cultivars cultivated yellow sarson rapa trilocularis (Roxb.) Kitam.) mustard juncea L.) grown red lateritic soils (Alfisols) Terai regions situated foothills northern part State....
Characterization and Identification of Selection Indices Pole Type Dolichos Bean Twelve genotypes pole type dolichos bean ( Lablab purpureus var. typicus ) were evaluated for their genetic variability character association among nine quantitative traits under the Gangetic plains eastern India. The study revealed significant variation in days to 50% flowering (57-115), length pod (7.15-15.05 cm), breadth (1.44-3.11 weight (2.92-8.92 g), 100 seed (22.2-45.50 number pods/plant (768.3-1897),...
The comprehensive use of organic, inorganic, and biological components nutrient management in rice ecologies can potentially address the twin challenges declining factor productivity deteriorating soil health. A field study was thus conducted at Varanasi, India during year 2013–14 2014–15 to assess effect recommended dose fertilizers (RDF) along with cow product (blends 5 by-products i.e., dung, ghee, curd, urine, milk that is known as panchagavya ) on health, energy budget, productivity....
The bacterial wilt disease of solanaceous crops incited by Ralstonia solanacearum is a menace to the production vegetables all over world. Among agro climatic zones West Bengal, India growing vegetables, maximum and minimum incidence was observed in Red Lateritic zone (42.4%) Coastal Saline (26.9%), respectively. present investigation reports occurrence Bottle gourd R . Sequevar 1–48 for first time India. Two new biovars (6 3b) along with biovar 3 have been found be prevalent Bengal. Under...
Abstract Eggplant (Solanum melongena L.) has the potential for improvement through heterosis breeding, which can be further utilized development of desirable recombinants. A Line × Tester mating design was used to determine over better parent, combining ability, and gene action 11 characters in eggplant. Crosses showing high specific ability (sca) yield involved parents general (gca) fruit weight, diameter, or length. Two hybrids, 'VNR-218' 'BCB-11' 'Arka Nidhi' 'KS-331' were selected on...
Characterization of Genetic Resources and Identification Selection Indices Brinjal ( Solanum melongena L.) Grown in Eastern India Thirty five diverse genotypes brinjal collected from different parts were characterized as per the documented descriptors evaluated for their morphological yield component characters during autumn-winter season. All under study showed highly significant variations among twelve quantitative traits. However, a wide range days to 50% flowering (47-79), fruit length...
Five inbred lines of tomato were crossed in a half diallel fashion to estimate the combining ability, mode gene action, extent heterobeltiosis and dominance effects inheritance fruit yield, processing qualities disease severity traits. A preponderance non-additive action was detected for all studied characters except weight, indicating that heterosis breeding is an appropriate strategy their improvement. Maximum observed percent index (PDI) leaf curl viruses (ToLCV), followed by number...
In the present study seventeen genotypes of vegetable cowpea (Vigna unguiculata cv-gr. Sesquipedalis) collected from different places in country were evaluated for horticultural traits genetic variation, character association, cause-effect analysis and diversity was measured among through D2 statistics. All eight characters under differed significantly genotypes. High to moderate GCV PCV values found number pods per plant, pod yield weight, seeds length. Higher estimates broad sense...
Sheath blight caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kühn is one of the most important diseases rice, resulting in significant yield loss rice every year. The rice-based intensified cropping system, edapho-climatological and host variations make disease problem more complicated. However, incidence severity differ from location to other, geographical area other even differs country region wise. reasons for this have been attributed variation genotype, virulence pathogen, prevalence congenial soil...
The pupils are involved in reading and writing for a long duration (4-5 hrs) during attending the school. In many of rural primary schools India, students not provided with bench desk they used to sit on floor class. present study was aimed evaluate different postures adopted classroom. posture selected this were sitting bench, by folded legs (Indian traditional posture), stretched legs. carried ten school children (n=106) between age groups 6 10 years. musculoskeletal disorders, EMG...
