This research explores the efficacy of mutagenesis, specifically using sodium azide (SA) and hydrazine hydrate (HZ) treatments, to introduce genetic diversity enhance traits in three wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes. The experiment entails subjecting seeds different doses SA HZ cultivating them field for two consecutive generations: M1 (first generation) M2 (second generation). We then employed selective breeding techniques with Start Codon Targeted (SCoT) markers select within gene...
This study investigates the anatomical adaptations of leaves from two halophyte species, Nitraria retusa (Forsskal) Asch. and Atriplex halimus L., in response to pollutants a cement factory human activities. In industrial areas, these plants absorb through their leaf surfaces, including Cu, Zn, Pb. The species were examined for changes under air pollution, key factors blade thickness, palisade parenchyma cell height, spongy diameter, epidermal characteristics, stomatal traits assessed. Under...
The genus Ruellia L. belongs to this family and its plants are herbs or shrubs. This was first detected in the tropical subtropical regions. primary objective study is identify various species within using both morphological characteristics DNA barcoding methods. For purpose, plant samples were meticulously collected from eight distinct natural habitats across region. All vegetative floral parts examined a binocular microscope. measured photographed. To ensure accurate identification...

Introduction Carbohydrate compounds serve multifaceted roles, from energy sources to stress protectants, found across diverse organisms including bacteria, fungi, and plants. Despite this broad importance, the molecular genetic framework underlying carbohydrate biosynthesis pathways, such as starch, sucrose, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis in Salvia guaranitica , remains largely unexplored. Methods In study, Illumina-HiSeq 2500 platform was used sequence transcripts of S. leaves, generating...
Abstract Drought has a significant impact on cereal-based staple food production, particularly in developing countries like Pakistan. To ensure sustainable and reliable supply, it is essential to develop comprehensive production plans that incorporate various approaches mitigate the effects of drought. In study conducted using randomized complete block design, we investigated potential plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) Biogas Slurry (BGs) either individually or combination...
Invasive plants are the second greatest threat to plant diversity, after habitat loss due human activities. Plant diversity hotspots and islands, as well farmlands, woodlands, forests, grasslands, populated areas, all threatened by invasive species. Over centuries, especially in last few decades, trade travel have increased dramatically, hastening introduction of alien Although comprehensive sampling is necessary for DNA barcoding, it rarely done a lack materials. In practice, only species...

Oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) is an important oilseed crop. We examined the diversity of germplasm expressed at three distinct levels (i.e., morphological, biochemical, and DNA levels). In this study, 150 B. L. accessions with check varieties were provided by Bioresources Conservation Institute. The was grown in field conditions for data collection 15 quantitative nine qualitative agro-morphological traits. result indicated that traits, highest coefficient variation recorded plant height...
