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.

In vitro inhibitory effect of fungicides and botanicals on mycelial growth and spore germination of Fusarium oxysporum

TL;DR: Carbendazim, hexaconzol, bitertanol, myclobutanil, mancozeb, captan and zineb and extracts of Allium sativum Allium cepa and Mentha arvensis were evaluated for their effect on the inhibition of mycelial growth and spore germination of Fusarium oxysporum.

Nutritional Status of Orange-Fleshed Sweet Potatoes in AlleviatingVitamin A Malnutrition through a Food-Based Approach

TL;DR: Results of this study suggest that increased consumption of orange-fleshed sweet potato in either fresh or cooked form can contribute considerably in alleviating dietary deficiency of Vitamin A and thereby combating night blindness, a major public health concern in rural areas.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of boron on the pollen vitality and yield of rice plants (Oryza sativa L. var. Jaya)

TL;DR: Supply of boron improved the pollen vitality of rice flowers and increased the yield of rice grains in the same order, linked with greater availability of sugars, increased enzymatic activity and respiration which favoured better growth of pollen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic variation and interrelationships among antioxidant, quality, and agronomic traits in vegetable amaranth

TL;DR: Direct selection for antioxidants (Fe and Mn), fiber content, leaves plant -1 , plant height, and stem base diameter would significantly improve the foliage yield of vegetable amaranth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytoremediation of Copper and Cadmium from Water Using Water Hyacinth, Eichhornia Crassipes

TL;DR: In this article, the phytoremediation potential of water hyacinth Eichhornia crassipes, for the removal of copper (Cu) and Cadmium (cd), was demonstrated.
