Abstract Growth and development of cereal crops are linked to weather, day length growing degree-days (GDDs) which make them responsive the specific environments in seasons. Global temperature is rising due human activities such as burning fossil fuels clearance woodlands for building construction. The rise disrupts crop growth development. Disturbance mainly causes a shift phenological affects their economic yield. Scientists farmers adapt these shifts, part, by changing sowing time...
Salinity is affecting a large area of Pakistan. The country situated in semiarid and arid region where the climate subtropical continental process salinization sodification progress. Excessive salt rates are adversely influencing biological, chemical, physical properties soils. These chemical changes influence activity soil microbes plant roots, eventually affect crop growth yield. Therefore, it essential from food security viewpoint to bring these salt-affected lands into agriculture...
Abstract We investigated the effect of exogenously applied silicon (Si) on growth and physiological attributes wheat grown under sodium chloride salinity stress in two independent experiments. In first experiment, genotypes SARC-3 (salt tolerant) Auqab 2000 sensitive) were nutrient solution containing 0 100 mM supplemented with 2 Si or not. Salinity substantially reduced shoot root dry matter both genotypes; nonetheless, reduction weight was (2.6-fold) lower than (5-fold). Application...
Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are essential for their products-honey, royal jelly, pollen, propolis and beeswax. They also indispensable because they support ecosystems with pollination services. However, the production functions of honey hindered by arthropod pest Varroa destructor, which attacks through its feeding activities. Efforts to control varroa mites have been made development various synthetic pesticide groups, but had limited success developed resistance some these pesticides...
Plants coevolved with their antioxidant defense systems, which detoxify and adjust levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) under multiple plant stresses. We performed whole-genome identification ascorbate peroxidase (APX) catalase (CAT) families in cultivated wild soybeans. In soybean genomes, we identified 11 10 APX genes, respectively, whereas the numbers CAT genes were four each species. Comparative phylogenetic analysis revealed more homology among soybeans relative to other legumes....
Salinity induced changes in α-amylase activity three cotton cultivars (NIAB-Karishma, NIAB-86 and K-115) was studied during germination early seedling growth under controlled conditions. The increase NaCl concentration resulted the decrease break down of starch into reducing non-reducing sugars all cultivars, however, it more pronounced NIAB-86. K-115 showed highest followed by NIAB-Karishma
Seven laboratories collaborated in testing the calculated protein efficiency ratio (C-PER and DC-PER). The collaborative study required each laboratory to analyze 6 foods a control (ANRC casein) for vitro apparent digestibility, amino acid composition, PER via rat bioassay. or food ingredients tested were nonfat dry milk, cooked chicken muscle, protein-fortified breakfast cereal, textured soy protein, oat-based durum wheat flour. Data obtained from analyzed statistically intralaboratory...
ABSTRACT Amino acid compositions of casein, egg white, beef, soy isolate, rapeseed concentrate, pea flour and wheat were studied by seven collaborating laboratories. Samples hydrolyzed with 6N HCl, performic + (with one exception) 4.2N NaOH. acids then determined ion‐exchange chromatography using automatic analyzers. One laboratory, however, tryptophan treatment p‐dimethylaminobenz‐aldehyde. The colorimetric determination was comparable to the values chromatography. Interlaboratory variation...
Phyllody is a serious disease of sesame in Pakistan. In the present study investigations were carried out on symptomatology, etiology, and transmission this disease. Floral virescence, phyllody, proliferation are most common symptoms. Sometimes these symptoms accompanied by yellowing, cracking seed capsules, germination seeds formation dark exudates foliage. Shoot apex fasciation has also been occasionally observed, but no phytoplasma DNA detected fasciated plants using PCR assays. Light...
Preterm and term transitional milks of human subjects mature subjects, non-human primates non-primates were analysed for free amino acids (AA) using precolumn phenylisothiocyanate derivatization liquid chromatography. Differences in AA between three types milk small. Milks pinnipeds (seals sea lions) contained the highest levels total (8634-20,862 mumol/l), while cows sheep had lowest (1061-1357 mumol/l). The chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), gorillas (Gorilla gorilla), elephants (Elephas...
The effect of ingesting some purine-rich foods (beef liver, haddock fillets and soybeans) on uric acid metabolism was investigated in 18 male subjects with no history gout or kidney disorder. In a crossover design, three isoenergetic isonitrogenous meals were fed to volunteers during 3-week period. Only the content uricogenic bases (adenine hypoxanthine) varied among test meals. Ingestion all experimental caused an increase serum levels at 120 minutes this more marked (about twofold) soybean...
Background: Artificial intelligence (AI) is an advanced computer technology used in the medical field to elude errors and enhance effectiveness efficiency, especially clinical work. Developing countries can utilize same models improve their health care system as industrialized world. Globally medicine evolving era of "Artificial intelligence", education must include these modern technologies competencies reform. We intended determine attitude students towards introduction AI Undergraduate...
Survival of living organisms depends on the availability water resources required for agriculture. In current scenario limited resources, it is our priority to maximise yield potential crops with a minimum supply available water. this study, we evaluated seven cultivated varieties Gossypium hirsutum (FH-114, FH-152, FH-326, FH-492, FH-942, VH-327 and FH-NOOR) their tolerance, fibre quality under shortages. We also studied effect drought stress osmoregulation, chlorophyll content, antioxidant...
The current study demonstrates the practical application of optical seed priming technology to improve cotton germination, plant growth, crop yield, and fiber quality. hypothesis this is that irradiation with different colors light can germination productivity in environments. In seeds, a wider range spectrum was used, ranging from ultraviolet (UV) red wavelengths. Various sources such as blue LED, diode laser, UV-B, UV-C were studied, along exposure times energy densities. time ranged 1.0...
Cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), usually known as ‘white gold’ is a perennial crop with an indeterminate growth habit and grown annual in the agricultural system. Due to changing climatic conditions cotton has face many stresses which can affect seed yield fiber quality. The change management practices alter behavior of plants mostly due variations plant hormone levels. To make crops steady get its full potential, exogenous application regulator (PGR) imparted significant positive effects. In...
