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.

Genetic Variability, Coefficient of Variance, Heritability and Genetic Advance of Some Gossypium hirsutum L. Accessions

TL;DR: High heritability and high genetic advance was observed in the lint index, number of bolls per plant and seed cotton yield per plant, which provide the clear image of the trait in the selection process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Essential Oil Profiles of Different Parts of Palmarosa (Cymbopogon martinii (Roxb.) Wats. var. motia Burk.)

TL;DR: This is the first report on the oil profiles of leaf lamina and leaf sheath of palmarosa, and whole herb oil was richer in linalool, β-caryophyllene and (E,Z)-farnesol while inflorescence oil was poorer in (E)-β-ocimene and geranyl acetate.

Genetic variability studies in West African okra (Abelmoschus caillei)

Kehinde
TL;DR: Variation was expressed in all qualitative traits studies except in leaf and petal colour and Phenotypic variances were generally higher than their respective genotyping variances thus revealing the role of environmental factors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Micropropagation of Embelia ribes Burm f. through proliferation of adult plant axillary shoots

TL;DR: Micropropagation of Embelia ribes was achieved through proliferation of axillary shoots obtained from mature plants, and 3,200 plants could be produced from a single shoot and 2,700 could be established in the field by using the above protocol.

Estimation of genetic parameters in indigenous rice.

TL;DR: High heritability coupled with high genetic advance were recorded for number of spikelets per panicle, hulling percentage, milling percent and head rice recovery indicated the major role of additive gene action in the inheritance of these character and these characters could be improved by selection in segregating generation.
