Genotypic variability in testcrosses derived from heat tolerant multi-parental synthetic populations of maize

TL;DR: The results suggested that the traits viz., days to 50 per cent anthesis, days to50 per cent silking, anthesis-silking interval, plant height, ear height and grain yield were under the control of non-additive gene action in both the MPS populations.

Genetic variation in fatty acid composition of fenugreek(Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) seed oil

TL;DR: PCA identified linolenic and oleic acid as the most important traits responsible for variation in presented material and improving quality through breeding among the fenugreek genotypes.
Journal Article

Influence of Gibberellic Acid and Planting Date on Growth and Flowering in Gladiolus Cv. Yellow Frilled

TL;DR: It is concluded that in gladiolus, planting on 25 th October along with dipping of corms in gibberellic acid (100ppm) at the time of planting, is most effective for improved growth and flowering.
Journal Article

Yield loss estimation and efficacy of biopesticides on the management of Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) in vegetable soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill]

TL;DR: A study was taken up to estimate the loss caused by the pod borer and to evaluate the bio pesticides against it, and among the biopesticides it was NSKE (4%) performed better followed by HaNPV, however, other bio pesticides viz.
Journal Article

Genetic variability and heritability studies in diverse tomato genotypes

TL;DR: High degree of variability was observed for all the traits that showed the traits were suitable for selection for further breeding purposes, indicating that additive gene action plays a major role in governing these traits and these traits can be improved by simple selection in earlier generations.

Salinity induced oxidative stress and antioxidant system in salt-tolerant and salt-sensitive cultivars of rice Oryza sativa L

TL;DR: It is inferred that leaves of salt-tolerant cultivars tend to attain greater capacity to perform reactions of antioxidative pathway under saline conditions to combat salinity-induced oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Microbial properties of soils as affected by cropping and nutrient management practices in several long-term manurial experiments in the semi-arid tropics of India

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of longterm cropping, fertilization, manuring and their integration on microbial community were studied in soil samples from five long-term fertilizer experiments under various rainfed production systems in the semi-arid tropics of India.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus levels due to deforestation and cultivation: A case study in Simlipal National Park, India

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that deforestation and cultivation result in statistically significant reduction in organic C, total N and C:N ratios but no significant changes in total and available P levels; C:P and N:P ratios also reduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arsenic-tolerant, arsenite-oxidising bacterial strains in the contaminated soils of West Bengal, India

TL;DR: This study presents the first correlation regarding the presence of the aoxB gene and As(III) oxidation ability in Geobacillus stearothermophilus, and identifies four strains as superior As-oxidisers.

Genetic Variability Studies for Qualitative and Quantitative traits in Popular Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Hybrids of India

TL;DR: The characters viz., number of filled grains per panicle and water uptake exhibited high heritability coupled with high genetic advance indicating that simple selection could be effective for improving these characters.
