Understanding the physiological mechanism of tolerance under stress conditions is an imperative aspect crop improvement programme. The role plant hormones well-established in abiotic tolerance. However, information on gibberellic acid (GA) late sown wheat still not thoroughly explored. Thus, we aimed to investigate endogenous GA 3 level contrasting cultivars, viz ., temperature-tolerant (HD 2643 and DBW 14) susceptible 2189 HD 2833) cultivars timely conditions. We created variation by...
Background and Purpose: Although most strokes present with mild symptoms, these have been poorly represented in clinical trials. The objective of this study is to describe multidimensional outcomes, identify predictors worse explore the effect thrombolysis population. Methods: This prospective observational included patients ischemic stroke or transient attack, a baseline National Institutes Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score 0 5, presenting within 4.5 hours from symptom onset. primary...
Exogenous application of salicylic acid (SA) has been known for delaying ripening in many fruit and vegetables. But the function endogenous SA relation to postharvest performance is still unexplored. To understand role tomato, 33 tomato lines were examined their content, membrane stability index (MSI), shelf life (SL) at turning red stages ripening. Six having contrasting lives from these categories subjected further ethylene (ET) evolution, 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic synthase (ACS),...
Abstract Wheat, one of the most widely consumed staple food crops globally, is relatively vulnerable to high temperature-induced heat stress. It therefore essential gain more insight into comprehensive mechanism thermotolerance wheat in order safeguard its production. In view this, we analysed stress responsive transcriptome data determine gene expression level under A total 7990 DEGs, including 4483 up-regulated and 3507 down regulated genes were identified. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis...
Cucumber is a model plant for studying parthenocarpy with abundant slicing- and pickling-type germplasm. This study was undertaken to understand the role of important cytokines (CKs), auxin (AUX) gibberellin (GA) biosynthesis degradation genes induction in slicing pickling Two genotypes gynoecious parthenocarpic cucumber, PPC-6 DG-8, along an MABC-derived non-parthenocarpic line, IMPU-1, were evaluated this study. The cucumber DG-8 strongly nature set fruit normally without pollination....
To meet the ever-increasing demand for food, there is a huge concern about selection of superior genotypes with enhanced resilience to abiotic stress. However, choice/selection suitable genotype/line complex due significant interaction environmental factors. Aiming few traits may simplify statistical analysis, however using multiple quite difficult. Furthermore, use any single index bias genotypes. Here, we proposed one method combined approach four indexes such as, multi-trait...
Introduction Abiotic stress significantly reduces the wheat yield by hindering several physiological processes in plant. Stay-green (SG) and stem reserve mobilization (SRM) are two key traits, which can contribute to grain filling during period. Validation of genomic regions linked SG SRM is needed for its subsequent use marker-assisted selection breeding program. Methods Using a gene expression approach, quantitative trait loci (QTLs) stay-green were validated pot experiment study using...
Summary Banana is one of the most important tropical fruits, and India ranks first in its world production. cultivars rich provitamin A carotenoids may offer a potential food source for alleviating vitamin deficiency, particularly developing countries. With view to exploit banana peels as valuable components, present study, proximate composition, carotenoids, beta‐carotene some anti‐oxidative enzymes well carbohydrate content selected Indian varieties were determined. Karpooravalli cultivar...
The present study was conducted to evaluate the total anthocyanin content and their antioxidant activities in 50 Indian rose (Rosa hybrid L.) varieties. Total among varieties found maximum December as compared March. differed significantly all with dark colours were richest than light coloured A similar trend also observed for activity. variety Ashwini, a red colour recorded highest (578.10 mg/100g) followed by Dr S Bhatnagar (369.86 Nehru Centenary (288.15 mg/100g); whereas minimum white...
Our experiment was conducted in order to find out effects of paclobutrazol (PBZ; 30 μl l-1) on morphology, photosynthetic process, and stress markers under water surplus deficit conditions several wheat genotypes. Study revealed that relative content (RWC), rate, maximal quantum yield PSII (FV/FM) improved after a PBZ application both irrigation across the genotypes, while stomatal conductance reduced. Further, led reduced leaf area Moreover, proline higher genotypes as compared irrigated...
Introduction: Abiotic stresses significantly reduce crop yield by adversely affecting many physio-biochemical processes. Several physiological traits have been targeted and improved for enhancement in limiting environmental conditions. Amongst them, staygreen stem reserve mobilisation are two important mutually exclusive contributing to grain filling under drought heat stress wheat. Henceforth, the present study was carried out identify QTLs governing these superiors' lines through...
In the present investigation, effect of bilayer coating was evaluated on chilling injury and quality guava fruits. The fruits white fleshed cv. Allahabad Safeda pink Lalit were subjected to treatment with 5-sulfosalicylic acid (2 mM) followed by vegetable wax (1:4 v/v). treated stored under two temperatures, namely, 5 10°C for 15 days. Post cold storage, transferred supermarket conditions (20 ± 2°C) a 2-day shelf life simulation period. results revealed that showed significantly lower weight...
