Heavy metal contamination in soil, such as cadmium (Cd), poses a serious threat to global food security and human health. It must be managed using environmentally friendly cost-effective technologies. Plants with high resistance Cd stress biomass production could potential candidates for the phytoremediation of Cd-contaminated soils improve phytoextraction. In this regard, present study was carried out determine effect gibberellic acid (GA3), indole acetic (IAA), fertilizers (N, P, K) on...
Lodging in maize leads to yield losses worldwide. In this study, we determined the effects of traditional and optimized nitrogen management strategies on culm morphological characteristics, mechanical strength, lignin content, root growth, lodging percentage production at a high plant density. We compared (N) application rate 300 kg ha−1 (R) an N 225 (O) under four modes: 50% applied sowing 10th-leaf stage (N1); 100% (N2); 40% sowing, 20% tasseling (N3); 30% stage, silking (N4). The (225...
Nano-fertilizers are superior to conventional fertilizers, but their effectiveness has not yet been adequately explored in the field of agriculture. In this study, silver nanoparticles using leaves extract an Alnus nitida plant were synthesized and further doped with urea enhance biomass metabolic contents. The (A.N-AgNPs) urea-doped (U-AgNPs) characterized Scanning Electron Microscopy, Transmission Powder X-ray Diffraction, Energy Dispersive X-ray. wheat seeds grown media under controlled...
Cassava ranks fifth among the starch producing crops of world, its annual bioethanol yield is higher than for any other crop. cultivar KU50, most widely grown non-food purposes susceptible to Sri Lankan cassava mosaic virus (SLCMV). The objective this work was engineer resistance SLCMV by RNA interference (RNAi) in order increase biomass yield, an important aspect production. Here, we produced transgenic KU50 lines expressing dsRNA homologous region between AV2 and AV1 DNA A SLCMV. High...
Molasses, a byproduct of sugar production, contains sugars, ash, and inhibitors, limiting its microbial use. This study screened yeast species for efficient molasses utilization inhibitor tolerance. Samples from four Khyber Pakhtunkhwa districts yielded 33 strains after scrutiny. Following initial characterization, the were identified based on both morphological features molecular methods involving amplification Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS) regions. By BLAST analysis, ITS sequences...
Pyrazinoic acid-resistant tuberculosis is a severe chronic disorder. First-line drugs specifically target the ribosomal protein subunit-1 (RpsA) and stop trans-translation in wild-type bacterium, causing bacterial cell death. In mutant strain, deletion of ala438 does not let pyrazinoic acid to bind active site RpsA ensures that bacterium survives. Hence, such cases require an immediate successful regime. The current study was designed identify inhibitors could state protein. Initially,...
Marker‐free transgenic tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum ) lines containing a chitinase ChiC gene isolated from Streptomyces griseus strain HUT 6037 were produced by Agrobacterium ‐mediated transformation. One marker‐free line, TC‐1, was retransformed with the wasabi defensin WD gene, Wasabia japonica . Of shoots, 37% co‐expressed ChiC/WD genes, as confirmed western and northern analyses. Southern blot analysis showed that no chromosomal rearrangement introduced between first second Transgenic...
The clinical outcomes of patients infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) range from acute resolving to chronic liver diseases such as cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Identification the infecting genotype is indispensable for exploration many aspects HCV infection, including epidemiology, pathogenesis, and response antiviral therapy. 1419 individuals were screened anti-HCV in this study, which 166 (11.7%) found reactive by ICT (Immunochromatographic test). These positive 26 normal...
