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.

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.

Field evaluation of biopesticides against tobacco caterpillar, Spodoptera litura Fab. infesting Gloriosa superba (Linn.)
M. Suganthy,P. Sakthivel +1 more
TL;DR: From the findings of the field trials, flavonoid showed the best in control of S. litura compared with the tested agents and is recommended to be the alternative to chemical pesticides in gloriosa eco-system and to be used as one of the components in organic pest management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Productivity and Economics of Drip-Irrigated Banana (Musa Spp.) under Different Planting and Fertigation Techniques in Subtropical India
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of fertigation through drip on the growth, yield, quality, and economics of banana during 2007-2009 were assessed, and the experiment also aimed to find out a suitable method of planting for banana under drip irrigation system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimation of Extent of Variability for Various Productive Traits in Sugarcane under Water-Logged Condition
TL;DR: Sugarcane is a perennial, tropical; monocotyledonous crop which is cultivated in tropical and subtropical region of the world primarily for its ability to store high concentration of sugar in the inter-node and propagate through stem cutting, but its productivity is generally limited by abiotic and biotic stresses.
Dissertation
EFFECT OF GROWTH REGULATORS AND MICRONUTRIENT ON GROWTH, YIELD AND QUALITY OF CAULIFLOWER (Brassica oleracea L. var. Botrytis) CV. SNOWBALL-16
TL;DR: The studies revealed that maximum plant height and number of leaves per plant were recorded with foliar application of GA3@100 ppm, which was consistent with rabi seasons of the year 2007-08 and 2008-09.
