Title : Evaluation of Genetic Variability in aerobic rice (Oryza sativa L.) |
Authors : M Vengatesh |
Abstract The experiment was conducted to evaluate the variability parameters of aerobic rice genotypes. The nine plants yield related characters from which the observations are recorded. Among the yield, characters studied the number of panicles, the weight of the panicle, number, and weight of the grains along with grain yield recorded a high amount of PCV and GCV. The high magnitude of heritability and genetic advance as per mean was found in many yield-related characters. This result reveals that the above drought and yield-related traits can be effectively enhanced through an easy phenotypic selection. |

Authors : Pooja Rai,Neelu Pawar,Sonam Sahu,Sarita Sen, Shadma Siddiqui |
Introduction: Arteriosclerosis, a Genetic term for Thickening and Hardening of the Arterial Wall is now responsible for the Majority of Deaths. Arthrosclerosis” was First Introduced by Marchand In 1904. Atherosclerosis may be Accelerated by a Decreased Clearance of Cholesterol from Arterial Wall Secondary to a Reduction of Plasma Concentration of H.D.L. In Atherosclerotic Lesion, the Lipid Content of Elastin increases Progressively with increasing Severity ofAtherosclerosis. The Increases in the Lipid Content of Plaque Elastin are Mainly due to large increases in Cholesterol. Aim: Correlation of Serum Cholesterol and S.C.B.R. in Control study of Essential Hypertension. Inclusion Criteria:25 patients of essential hypertension. Exclusion Criteria: Nonsmokers and Secondary Hypertension. Methodology: Obtain Serum specimen in usual way, alternatively EDTA plasma may also be used as specimen. The sample should preferable be 12- 14 hours fasting and using the principle of Serum Cholesterol and SCBR, readings has come out, the readings are further calculated. Result: Mean S.C.B.R. was 59.719+6.99 mg% and mean serum cholesterol was 186.8+32.009 mg% in 25 controls. Correlation coefcient between serum cholesterol and S.C.B.R. was +0.706 (p <0.001), denoting that S.C.B.R. rises with increasing level of cholesterol in control. Conclusion: The study shows signicance coo-relation between Serum cholesterol and S.B.C.R |

Title : Importance of Vegetables in the Human Diet |
Authors : Niraj Kumar Prajapati |
Vegetables are considered essential for a balanced diet because they provide vitamins, minerals, fibre, and phytochemicals. Appropriate consumption of vegetables can prevent chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer, obesity, metabolic syndrome, and cardiovascular diseases and improve the risk factors associated with these diseases. Vegetables are used as leaves, stems, fruits, flowers, roots, etc. Vegetables also have seasons and their own nutritional value. They are not only a storehouse of many nutrients but also have therapeutic value, and they exhibit antioxidant properties. Important metals are delivered to our bodies by plants absorbing them from the soil. This article will provide basic information about the importance of vegetables in the human diet as well as their effects on vegetable food content and human health. |

Title : Agri-Tourism: A Potential Livelihood Approach for Empowering Farm Women |
Authors : Ankita Sahu,Laxmipriya Sahoo,Arpita Mohapatra,Tania Seth |
Agri-tourism, also referred to as agricultural or farm tourism, is a specialized branch of the tourism industry. It entails venturing into agricultural areas, farms, or rural landscapes to actively partake in farming-related activities and immerse oneself in rural life. This niche sector provides visitors with the unique opportunity to directly engage in agricultural practices, embrace rural customs, and relish the countryside's charm (Sznajder et al., 2009). In contemporary times, agri-tourism is gaining prominence as a promising means of livelihood for rural communities (Tiraieyari and Hamzah, 2012). This burgeoning trend not only enriches travelers' experiences but also revitalizes rural economies. |

Title : High throughput phenotyping and its applications in crop improvement |
Authors : Yathish K.R ,G. Nagamani,A.K Das,Chikkappa G.K,Mallikarjuna M.G,J.C. Sekhar |
The development of high-throughput phenotyping technologies has progressed considerably in the last decade as these technologies provide precise measurements of desired traits among thousands of field-grown plants under diversified environments. Since plant phenotyping is the foundation of crop breeding, high-throughput phenotyping techniques were employed in many crop improvement programs. This allowed breeders to draw on physiological features and mechanistic knowledge to guide their choice of material for crossover and genetic improvement. High-throughput phenotyping techniques and platforms help to unravel the genetic basis of complex traits associated with plant growth and development and targeted traits. The usage of field-based high-throughput approaches will expand with the development of user-friendly data management tools and software for better comprehending phenotyping, which has the potential to revolutionize breeding strategies and to satisfy future needs. |

Title : Developing White Rust Resistance in Rapeseed-Mustard: A Modern Perspective |
Authors : Prashant Yadav,Sushma Yadav,Arun Kumar,Nitish R. Bhardwaj,Anjana Goel |
Indian mustard (Brassica juncea) is a Rabi season crop primarily grown in the northern states of India. Its production is influenced by various biotic and abiotic stresses. Among these, white rust disease caused by the oomycete fungal pathogen Albugo candida is a significant threat to rapeseed-mustard cultivation. This disease leads to substantial yield losses, impacting the income of farmers. The article focuses on the symptoms, life cycle, management strategies, and improved breeding techniques for combating white rust disease. Emphasizing disease resistance, the study highlights the importance of developing resistant varieties through breeding, genetic engineering, and marker-assisted selection. This strategy aims to enhance crop yield and quality while minimizing the need for pesticides, thereby contributing to environmental preservation. |

Title : Thermophilic Bacteria: Applications in Agriculture |
Authors : Shivani Sankla,Asha Sahu,Sudeshna Bhattacharjya,Nisha Sahu, A B Singh |
Thermophilic bacteria are common in soil and volcanic habitats and have a limited species composition. They are inhabitants of various environments, such as deep-sea hydrothermal vents, terrestrial hot springs, and other extreme sites, including volcanic region, tectonically active faults, and processing waste residues, like compost piles and deep organic landfill. Yet they possess all the major nutritional categories and metabolize the same substrates as mesophilic bacteria. The ability to proliferate at growth temperature optima well above 60°C is associated with extremely thermally stable macromolecules. Thermophiles have attracted considerable attention because they present specific features with biotechnological and industrial interest, such as the production of different biomolecules (exopolysaccharide, antimicrobial, biosurfactant) and thermostable enzymes (amylases, cellulases, chitinases, pectinases, xylanases, proteases, lipase, and DNA polymerases), for biotechnological applications in medical, industrial, and agriculture processes. Many thermophilic bacteria possess properties suitable for biotechnological and commercial use. There is, indeed, a considerable demand for a new generation of stable enzymes that are able to withstand severe conditions in agriculture processes by replacing or supplementing traditional chemical processes. Thermophilic bacteria have application in chemical feedstock and fuel production, bioconversion of wastes, enzyme technology, and immobilization of heavy metal. This article reviews the fundamental and applied aspects of thermophilic bacteria that are of potential agriculture interest. |
