Abstract The agroforestry system is the best option to achieve net zero carbon emissions target for India. Keeping this view, sequestration and credit potential of gamhar based has been assessed. experiment was carried out in randomized block design seven different treatments with five replications. Gamhar tree biomass accumulation higher compared sole gamhar. Among components, stem contributed a maximum total followed by roots, leaves branches. average contributions stems, branches two...
The use of pesticides plays a vital role in agriculture for protecting crops from pests and diseases. However, conventional delivery methods have drawbacks including toxicity, lack efficiency, negative environmental impacts. Nanotechnology offers solutions through nano-enabled smart pesticide systems. These utilize nanoparticles as carriers that can encapsulate, absorb, or bind pesticides. Nanoparticles like liposomes, polymer nanoparticles, dendrimers, nanoemulsions, nanocapsules allow...
This study delves into the intricate realms of Brevicoryne brassicae (L.), commonly known as cabbage aphid, shedding light on its biology, diversity, distribution, and characterization within ecosystems. Through a comprehensive examination these facets, we aim to unravel key insights life cycle, morphological variations, geographical presence B. brassicae, offering nuanced understanding ecological significance. Utilizing combination field surveys, laboratory experiments, molecular analyses,...
Multifunctional Nanoparticles: A facile approach to create multi-functional nanopyramids has been demonstrated. The surfaces of bi-material Au/Ni were differentially modified with chemical and biological moieties. Dye-labeled used as probes for dual-mode optical imaging (scattering fluorescence). Under a magnetic field, these NPs also assembled into 1D chains that exhibited polarization- dependent properties.
Fusarium wilt caused by oxysporum f. sp. pisi (Fop) is an important disease and major obstacle to pea production, causing huge losses growers. The focus of this study was on isolation followed morphological, molecular characterization analyzing the growth casual agent under variable temperature, pH Nitrogen levels. morphological features radial growth, sporulation, pigmentation mycelial were examined variability all isolates presented. Molecular fungus ITS rDNA sequencing revealed that 13...
Biocontrol agents are essential for protecting plants from pests and diseases while reducing the need dangerous pesticides. These include a wide range of naturally occurring species that control pest populations, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, insects. In agricultural contexts, incorporation biocontrol into plant protection tactics provides environmentally human-health-friendly substitutes traditional The ability to target certain without endangering beneficial organisms or harming...
The yield gaps between cluster frontline demonstration (CFLD) and Farmers practice extent of technology adoption extension gap. Krishi Vigyan conducted Frontline on chickpea, Kendra, Nalanda, Bihar during the year 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18 in 16, 07 2 villages, respectively. Results CFLD reveals that variety (GNG 1581) recorded highest grain (19.78q/ha). It was 23 percent higher over farmer (16.12q/ha). An average 18.60q/ha practices, it just 14.73 q/ha. Thus,the gap, gap index 5.39 q/ha,...
An examination was carried out to study in randomized block design with three replications at Crop Research Centre, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology, Meerut during rabi 2014-15, the evaluation novel insecticides viz., imidadoprid, acephate, chlorpyriphos, fipronil, thiamethoxam, dimethoate, pymetrozine, against L. erysimi revealed that all treatments schedule proved better than control time intervals after each spray. The thiamethoxam 25% WG @100 g/ha found...
Present study was undertaken at Crop Research Centre of G.B.U.A&T., Pantnagar to evaluate the effect Indoxacarb against H. armigera in tomato.The percent damage fruits by observed 75 and 60g a.i./ha dosage with 7.0 8.0 per cent fruit damage.Indoxacarb 50g par Chlorpyrifos having 14.66 11.83 damage, respectively.Indoxacarb 30 40g though had significantly lesser 18.33 17.50, respectively but these were less effective compared Chlorpyrifos.As far as over untreated control is concerned maximum...
Studies on the efficacy of eight insecticides against mustard aphid, Lipaphis erysimi (Kalt.) Brassica juncea cv. Varuna as foliar spray were carried out at Norman E. Borlaug Crop Research Center G.B. Pant University Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar (India) during Rabi season 2018-19. revealed that after third seventh days spray, Dimethoate 30 EC, Thiamethoxam 25 WG Imidacloprid 17.8 SL proved most effective aphid. The maximum seed yield 21.69 q/ha was recorded in thiamethoxam, which...
The RNA interference (RNAi) has emerged as a promising approach for targeted and eco-friendly insect pest management in sustainable agriculture. RNAi involves the silencing of specific genes through introduction double-stranded (dsRNA), leading to degradation complementary mRNA subsequent reduction expression proteins. This chapter provides comprehensive overview current state future prospects RNAi-based strategies control. We discuss molecular mechanisms underlying RNAi, delivery methods...
Pesticides play a crucial role in modern agricultural practices, yet their extensive use poses significant environmental challenges, particularly concerning soil and water quality. This abstract offers comprehensive overview of the physicochemical behavior pesticides systems, essential for effective pesticide management protection. Factors influencing fate transport, including properties, characteristics, conditions, are meticulously examined. Key processes such as sorption, degradation,...
Phosphorus (P) scarcity poses a significant challenge to sustainable agriculture, impacting plant growth and crop productivity. While arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi have been extensively studied for their role in enhancing phosphorus acquisition, this review explores the potential of diverse microflora as alternative solutions. The groups, including rhizobacteria, actinomycetes, cyanobacteria, contribute availability through various mechanisms. These microfloras produce organic acids,...
Plants and insects have a strong interaction in the natural world, it turns out that little organisms known as microbes significant influence on how they interact. Extremely tiny living creatures called microorganisms are crucial to these interactions. Some of them work tandem with plants produce compounds function insect repellents. These receive food from return, which allows survive. Furthermore, certain reside inside alter their behaviour even what eat. They may increase likelihood bugs...
The South American tomato pinworm (Phthorimaea absoluta) poses a significant threat to global (Solanum lycopersicum) production due its rapid spread, devastating feeding habits, and ability develop resistance insecticides. This review provides comprehensive examination of the biology, ecology, economic impact, current management strategies P. absoluta. pest's lifecycle, from egg adult, preferred environmental conditions, factors contributing successful establishment in new regions are...
