Chickpea (Cicer arietinum) is the third most significant grain legume grown in dry and semi-arid regions. Ensuring global food security necessitates sustainable practices, such as improving agricultural productivity with cultivars that provide increased yields adaptability. The major limits on chickpea production are poor genetic diversity, low variable yield, vulnerability to biotic abiotic stresses. Despite abundance of germplasm accessions, their impact genetics has been limited....
Transcriptomics, a cornerstone of modern genomics, plays pivotal role in deciphering gene expression patterns and understanding complex biological processes. Among legume crops, Cicer arietinum (chickpea) ranks as the third most important globally, following soybean lentil, serves vital source dietary protein essential nutrients. Over past two decades, transcriptomic research on chickpea has advanced remarkably, transitioning from earlier methods such expressed sequence tags (ESTs) serial...
Tomato production in Pakistan faces significant problems of low yields due to various biotic and abiotic stresses primarily because a narrow genetic base the cultivars being used. Therefore, Introduction evaluation exotic tomato germplasm has become necessary acquire elite material develop future breeding programs. To this end, present study was conducted for phenotypic characterization twenty genotypes along with two locally grown semi-arid subtropical climate. Data were collected...
This research was designed to assess the toxicity of cadmium (Cd), and its effects on catalase (CAT) activity, histology gills geno-toxicity Oreochromis niloticus. The acute Cd (96-h) for fish computed as 56.021 mg/L (LC50) 80.7336 (LC100) using Probit method. inferences showed that level significantly (P<0.05) lower in treated O. niloticus compared control metal-stress free. It followed order as: intestine<gills<muscles<brain. Results Cd-exposure caused prominent damage both...
Cadmium toxicity is an emerging problem as it the most abundant heavy metal in Pakistani soils. Peas are being grown near cities where elevated level of cadmium persists. So, this study was conducted for evaluation 10 peas genotypes (TRIPLET, MID No. 2, Oskar, LM (OSE), METEOR, P-1, Rohina, PEA-09, LM-POIS, and LAMPO) under stress at seedling stage greenhouse Department Plant Breeding Genetics, University Agriculture, Faisalabad. There were 3 treatments (0, 4, 8 mg/kg soil) each treatment...
