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.

- 01 Jan 2014 - 
TL;DR: A field experiment was conducted to evaluate the integrated use of organic and inorganic source of nutrients on growth, yield and economics of hybrid maize during kharif and rabi seasons of 2008 and 2009 at the irrigated upland farm of Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, and revealed significant increase in growth parameters, yield components, grain and stover yield.

Genetic Studies in Upland Rice ( Oryza sativa L.)

TL;DR: The study revealed that genetic improvement of grain yield in rice is admissible by selecting characters having high positive correlation and positive direct effect.

Character association and path analysis for seed yield in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.).

TL;DR: The genotypic and phenotypic associations among important quantitative characters were analyzed and the direct and indirect effect of various traits on seed yield and yield contributing characters in sunflower was understood.
Journal ArticleDOI

Allelopathic potential of well water fromPluchea lanceolata-infested cultivated fields.

TL;DR: Results indicate that well water recovered from P. lanceolata-infested cultivated fields inhibited the shoot growth of pea, chickpea, mustard, and wheat under greenhouse conditions, highlighting the importance of controlling such weeds in cultivated fields.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phytoremediation of heavy metal-contaminated tailings soil by symbiotic interaction of Cymbopogon citratus and Solanum torvum with Bacillus cereus T1B3.

TL;DR: In this paper, environmental pollution by dumping of tailings and overburden from different industrial activities has become a critical issue due to considerable increase in heavy metals (HMs) in all compartments.
