Although nitrogen (N) is the most limiting nutrient for agricultural production, its overuse associated with environmental pollution, increased concentration of greenhouse gases, and several human animal health implications. These implications are greatly affected by biochemical transformations losses N such as volatilization, leaching, runoff, denitrification. Half globally produced fertilizers used to grow three major cereals—rice, wheat, maize—and their current level recovery...
This paper explores the multifaceted nature of β-glucan, a notable dietary fiber (DF) with extensive applications. Beginning an in-depth examination its intricate polysaccharide structure, discussion extends to diverse sources like oats, barley, mushrooms, and yeast, emphasizing their unique compositions. The absorption metabolism β-glucan in human body are scrutinized, potential health benefits. Extraction purification processes for high-quality food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics outlined....
Nutritionally rich cucumber seeds remain in demand the agricultural, health and cosmetic sectors as they are essential for a successful crop stand establishment seed-based products. However, production of is impeded by source limitation nutrient deficiency. The foliar application micronutrients can supplement this deficiency overcome physiological setback. An experiment was undertaken to compare impacts Fe Zn, nanoparticles fertilizers, on yield seed quality under open protected...
Albeit extensive cultivation of bitter melon both as vegetable and medicine in many countries Asia, Africa, South America, no serious efforts have been made for genetic breeding studies on this 'orphan' crop.In contrast to popular cucurbits, it lacks a linkage map required genomic depiction precise breeding.We report here the construction first using set 146 F2 progenies derived from an inter-botanical variety cross between Taiwan White, Momordica charantia var.charantia, CBM12, M....
ABSTRACT Brinjal ( Solanum melongena L.), an important solanaceous vegetable valued for its rich nutritional profile and potential health benefits, is widely cultivated in the tropical subtropical regions of world. Existing food security concerns are exacerbated due to rise soil borne pathogens, a direct consequence global warming, increasing risk crop diseases. Among these, Fusarium wilt, caused by multiple species , very serious severity persistent nature. Traditional control measures,...
ABSTRACT Evaluating diversity panels for their ability to endure salt stress conditions is essential the development of breeding lines. A set 100 lentil genotypes was characterised tolerance during 2021–22 and 2022–23. Salt lead an average reduction 43.96% in plant height, 19.46% primary branches per plant, 44.45% pods 47.26% seed weight, 36.39% photosynthetic rate (Pn), 34.03% transpiration rate, 33.95% stomatal conductance (gsw), 27.75% chlorophyll content, 30.04% relative water content...
This study aimed to develop a long-term pollen storage protocol for Luffa species ( L. acutangula , cylindrica echinata and graveolens ) assess its potential crop improvement. The optimal medium in vitro germination varied by species, with Brewbaker Kwack (BK) 10% sucrose suitable acutangula, BK 3% ideal . Overestimation staining tests compared was observed. best results cryopreservation were achieved desiccation periods of 20, 30, 40 min, maintaining moisture content between 14.04% 18.55%....
Seed priming technique has a marvelous potential in enhancing seed germination and crop establishment under limited soil moisture conditions, which ultimately increases yield. Therefore, we investigated the effects of on physiology, growth, yield antioxidant defense system pearl millet ( Pennisetum glaucum L.) rain-fed condition. The experiments were conducted laboratory as well field conditions comprising three treatments i . e ., non-primed seeds (control, T 0 ), with tap water...
The highly significant effects of environments, genotypes and interactions were observed for forage grain yield. environmental explained the major portion total variance as 82.3% 58.8% respectively. Indicated that environments diverse a part variation in yield resulted from changes. interaction partitioned into IPCA1, IPCA2 IPCA3, IPCA4; which 30.4, 19.4, 14.8 & 13.2% 37.0, 17.2, 16.1 12.5% harvested AMMI stability value(ASV) identified promising G12(UPB 1035), G6(UPB 1034), G7(BH 971)...
Twenty one genotypes of pigeon pea were evaluated in a randomized complete block design during the Kharif season 2007-08, 2008-09 and 2009-10 based upon number primary branches per plant, pod length, grains pod, 100-seed weight seed yield plant. The stability was studied by deploying AMMI (additive main effects multiplicative interaction) model. significant differences among years observed measured more than 50% treatment sum squares. First principal component axis (PCA1) interaction...
Cucumber fruits are perishable in nature and become unfit for market within 2-3 days of harvesting. A natural variant, DC-48 with exceptionally high shelf life was developed used to dissect the genetic architecture molecular mechanism extended through RNA-seq first time. total 1364 DEGs were identified cell wall degradation, chlorophyll ethylene metabolism related genes played key role. Polygalacturunase (PG), Expansin (EXP) xyloglucan down regulated determining fruit firmness retention...
Eighteen genotypes of french bean were evaluated for genetic variability and correlation studies pod yield its attributing characters. Both GCV PCV corresponded closely all the characters indicating low environmental influence. Highest recorded seed weight per (145.12 % 144.87%, respectively). The highest heritability estimate was observed number pods plant (99.71 %). Pod significantly positively correlated with plant, flower inflorescence, set height leaves plant. Six viz., (0.917), girth...
The present investigation was carried out under insect proof net house (IPN) and open field condition (OFC) at Centre for Protected Cultivation Technology Seed Testing Laboratory of Division Science &Technology, IARI, New Delhi in bitter gourd cv. Pusa Hybrid-1 during summer season because the seed yield quality drastically reduced due to viral diseases fruit fly kharif early onset high temperature, unseasonal rains summer, which restricts hybrid production north Indian condition....
Among the various stages of fruit harvest (35, 40, 45 DFP under open field (E1); and 45, 50, 55 protected (E2) environments, in combination with post-harvest ripening (PHR) periods (0, 10, 20 30-days);treatment F2P4 (40 DFP+30-days PHR), followed by F3P3 (45 DFP+20-days PHR) field, whereas, treatment C2P4 (50 DFP+30days C3P3 (55 environment, were superior optimizing both seed yield quality two cucumber varieties (Pusa Barkha Pusa Uday), during 2019-20, at ICAR-IARI, New Delhi.The attributes...
Nowadays, hulless barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) is gaining importance as a raw material for food industry due to its highly nutritive value. Non-availability of high yield and disease resistant varieties has restricted production in marginal areas over the last two decades. Therefore, an experiment was conducted during 2017–18 2018–19 at Seed Research Farm ICAR-Indian Institute Wheat Barley Research, Karnal, Haryana characterized 11 exotic genotypes 4 Indian cultivars morpho-physiological...
GXE interaction of twenty seven feed barley genotypes tested at fifteen major locations interpreted by non-parametric measures. Genotype JB322 was high yielder followed PL890 and HUB250 among genotypes. Descriptive statistics calculated from original yield values identified KB1436 KB1434 were stable performance. Nonparametric measures, free distributional assumptions, Si1, Si2, Si3, Si4, Si5 Si6 Si7 indicated JB322, UPB1054 as genotypes, however, unstable RD2552G5 DWRB156. CMR CSD measures...
