Iron (Fe) deficiency is a pressing global health concern, particularly affecting vulnerable groups like women and children in resource-limited areas. Addressing this challenge requires innovative solutions, biofortified crops, Fe-enriched wheat, can offer sustainable solution to improve nutrition cereal-based diets. While conventional breeding methods have yielded competitive Fe-biofortified wheat varieties across various nations, the imminent challenges securing food nutritional security...
Optimizing wheat height to maximize yield has been an important aspect which is evident from a successful example of green revolution. Dwarfing genes (Rht) are known for gains due lodging resistance and partitioning assimilates into ear. The available commercially exploited sources dwarfism in Indian spring Rht1 Rht2 inspite availability over 20 dwarfing genes. Rht8 Gibberellic acid sensitive gene another reduced some Mediterranean countries. Two F2 populations segregating with each...
Thirteen known Yr gene-associated markers pertaining to genes (Yr5, Yr10, Yr15, Yr24/Yr26) were used identify the in selected wheat germplasm which found resistant under field conditions at two locations Punjab, India against stripe rust. In evaluation, 38 genotypes exhibited highly response, with a final rust severity (FRS) ranging from 0 TR. Seven expressed moderately response FRS 5MR-10S. race-specific phenotying most prevalent pathotypes of Puccinia striiformis tritici (46S119,110S119...
Historic sites in countries like India are often neglected due to lack of awareness. They present the middle a busy city and blend with ordinary modern structures. It is author's effort understand opportunities creating understanding level awareness challenges faced conservation such hidden gems. With their experiences as regular participants various heritage walks & talks Pune sample survey conducted, authors aim suggest marketing strategy for sustained activities highlighting options...
Background: Phyllanthus acidus is used traditionally in various diseases, analgesics, inflammation, rheumatism, bronchitis, asthma, respiratory disorders, hepatic diseases and diabetes Bangladesh, South India Southeast, Asian countries. The plant a good source of antioxidants. Aim: This study aims to investigate the vitro vivo anticoagulant activities an aqueous extract (Aq.) methanolic (MeOH) derived from P. leaves. Method: Ultrasonic-Assisted Extraction (UAE) method was solvents. ether...
Deploying under-utilized landraces in wheat breeding has been advocated to accelerate genetic gains current era of genomics assisted breeding. Mexican bread (Creole wheats) represent an important resource for the discovery novel alleles including disease resistance. A core set 1,098 was subjected multi-location testing rust diseases India, Mexico and Kenya. The landrace showed a continuous variation yellow (YR) stem (SR) severity. Principal component analysis differentiated into three groups...
All stage resistance to stripe rust races prevalent in India was investigated the European winter wheat cultivar 'Acienda'. In order dissect genetic basis of resistance, a backcross population developed between 'Acienda' and susceptible Indian spring 'HD 2967'. Inheritance studies revealed segregation for dominant resistant gene. High density SNP genotyping used map marker regression analysis located distal end chromosome 1A. Interval mapping this region markers AX-95162217 AX-94540853, at...

Plant Sci. 94: 1203–1209. Spot blotch, caused by Bipolaris sorokiniana, is a major disease hampering its commercial production many parts the world. Growing resistant cultivars most effective, economical eco-friendly approach to control disease. To understand inheritance resistance, F 1 , 2 3 generations two crosses,...
The periodic breakdowns of stripe rust resistance due to emergence new virulent and more aggressive pathotypes Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici have resulted in severe epidemics India. This necessitates the search for durable sources against rust. three bread wheat cultivars PBW 343 (carries Yr9 Yr27 ), 621 Yr17 ) HD 2967 (gene not known) were highly popular among farmers after their release 2011. But presently all are susceptible at seedling as well adult plant stages has been broken...
Context Untapped wheat germplasm is conserved globally in genebanks. Evaluating it for grain quality and yield will help achieve nutritional food security. Aims We aimed to evaluate the Indian National Genebank bread core collection quality, phenology yield, identify potential donor germplasm. Methods 1485 accessions were grown at three locations India during winter 2015–2016 test weight, protein content, sedimentation value (SV), days spike emergence, maturity, thousand-grain weight (TGW)....
