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.

Spermine reduces salinity-induced oxidative damage by enhancing antioxidative system and decreasing lipid peroxidation in rice seedlings

TL;DR: Spermine (Spm) counteracted the adverse effects of salt-induced oxidative stress in leaves of rice seedlings by reducing lipid peroxidation and increasing activities of antioxidative enzymes, inferred that application of Spm reduces the effect of salt stress through the regulation of stress related components such as oxidative stress and antioxidants system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sustainable tree mixtures: optimum species combination for a tropical alfisol of southern India.

TL;DR: The results revealed that growth of sapota can be enhanced by 17% when grown in mixture with leucaena while co-planting of casuarina had no influence on sapota.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Diversity and Selection Among Drought Tolerant Genotypes of Sugarcane Using Microsatellite Markers

G. Hemaprabha, +1 more
- 22 Jun 2012 - 
TL;DR: Higher percentages of selection from genetically less similar crosses (SI below 0.80) and a significant negative correlation between selection per cent of each cross and similarity index highlighted the usefulness of selecting more diverse combinations for the genetic improvement of sugarcane.

Effect of Micronutrient Fertilization and Their Methods of Application on Sorghum Productivity

TL;DR: The effect of Micronutrient Fertilization and Their Methods of Application on Sorghum Productivity and their methods of application on sorghum productivity are studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Pinching and Growth Regulators on Vegetative and Physiological Parameters

TL;DR: Chrysanthemum (chryos = golden; anthos = flower) is a popular flower crop of commercial importance, which belongs to the family Asteraceae as mentioned in this paper.
