The study was conducted at Department of Crop Management, Faculty center for Agricultural Education and Research, Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda Educational and Research Institute, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India (Latitude 11° 13’N, Longitude 76° 94’ E) from March, 2022 to June, 2022. Proteins play an indispensable role in bodybuilding. Thus, it is necessary to add the protein-rich food in daily diet. Black gram, one of the pulses, is being rich in proteins, which is about 20−25%. Heat is one of major important abiotic stress that affect the growth physiology and ultimately reduces the crop productivity. Heat stress majorly affects the reproductive phase and its leads decline in the yield. Plants can able to develop adaptive response to even mildest heat stress at morphological, physiological and biochemical levels. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the blackgram seedlings under high temperature to identify the expression level of heat shock protein for temperature stress tolerance. Heat tolerant plants develops the rapid phenological and biochemical changes which favors higher production. So, this study was carried out to evaluate the response pattern of blackgram under elevated temperature stress imposed on seedling stage in different genotypes. Six blackgram genotypes VBG-06-002, VBG-06-005, VBG-06-010, VBG-07-001, VBG-10-008 and COBG-759 were taken for this experiment. The protein profile as evidenced by SDS page analysis indicated distinct expression of 40 KDa protein in genotypes VBG-07-001, VBG-06-010, VBN-6 and COBG-11-02 not expressed in VBG-06-002 and COBG-759. This expression of protein maybe an indicative feature of thermo tolerance.

The present study was conducted in Chikkaballapur district of Karnataka, India during 2019 to investigate amount of drudgery faced by agricultural labourers. Primary data collected for 13 selected farm operations from randomly selected 200 (144 men and 56 women) agricultural laborers using structured interview schedule for assessing drudgery perceived by them in performing these 13 operations. The results revealed that women labourers were perceived more drudgery in farm operations as compared men labourers. Women labourers perceived weeding, stubble collection and pesticide application were highest drudgery prone activities whereas men labourers perceived weeding, stubble collection and harvesting were highest drudgery prone activities. Out of thirteen selected farm activities, seed treatment was significantly lowest drudgery prone and weeding was the highest drudgery prone activity for both men and women labourers in the study area. Experience, family size and duration of employment were found to have significant and negative relationship with average drudgery and age & income were positively related with average drudgery. The drudgery among both men and women labourers can be reduced by gaining work experience, using ergonomically refined tools and proper management of employment pattern, duration and income.

The present investigation was conducted in the experimental field of Banda University of Agriculture and Technology, Banda, Uttar Pradesh, India during July to October of 2021. Phytophthora blight caused by Phytophthora parasitica var. sesame is prevalent in all the sesame grown areas in the country. It may occur at any stage of the crop and can cause up to 80% yield loss. The combination of biological control agents viz. Trichoderma harzianum (Th) & Pseudomonas fluorescens (Pf), application of farm yard manure, spent mushroom substrate (SMS) of oyster mushroom and the fungicide (Metalaxyl 8%+Mancozeb 64% WP) were assessed against Phytophthora blight of sesame in terms of incubation period, disease incidence, disease severity and yield under natural epiphytotic field conditions during kharif 2021. Among the treatments assessed, soil application of SMS+Th prior to sowing showed the highest enhancement in terms of incubation period (35.63%) and yield (44.55%) over the control. However, it was at par with respect to the incubation period and yield in the treatment of soil amended with the combination of SMS and (Th+Pf) before sowing. Maximum reduction in disease incidence (20.04%) and severity (51.41%) of Phytophthora blight over the control was recorded in treatments viz., soil amendment with combination of SMS+ (Th+Pf) and SMS+Th, respectively. The results revealed that all the treatments applied as prophylactic treatment, significantly reduced the Phytophthora blight and increased the incubation period and yield over the unprotected crop.

The fruit harvest at physiological maturity of seeds is a globally accepted practice. This method has been traditionally practiced in horticultural crops where quality seeds and vigorous seedlings are ensured for cultivation of the species. The assessment of seed physiological maturity in the harvest of forest fruits and seeds are seldom practiced as seed physiological and biochemical studies in tropical seeds is little attempted. Since recalcitrant seed behavior among forest species is increasing, maintenance of seed viability and longevity ex situ becoming a challenging task in the forestry sector. Further, seed loss through fruit predation and pest infestation are other handicaps to these species. An improved technology for harvesting, storage and longevity of recalcitrant seeds will be a breakthrough for the germplasm conservation, management and utilization of forest genetic resources. Identification of biochemical factors at physiological maturity of seeds in conjunction with fruit morphological characters considered as optimum harvest practice for recalcitrant forest fruits and seeds. The practice could extend shelf life of recalcitrant seeds and bypass seed loss prior to the conventional harvest practices. This review outlines the research works carried out in seed physiological maturity of crops and its broad scope among recalcitrant forest seeds for long term germplasm storage.

Avocado (Persia americana) or locally called Phamfal is a subtropical, dicotyledonous, evergreen tree belonging to the family Lauraceae. The avocado tree is originated from a broad geographical area stretching from the eastern and central highlands of Mexico through Guatemala to the Pacific coast of Central America. Avocado is a fruit, produced from tropical trees characterized by a pear shape and blackish green in colour with high nutritional value and creamy texture. Avocado crop can be used in several ways i.e for processed products, exportation and oil extraction, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries as a raw material thereby generating high value added products.High demand for information on avocado indicates that there is considerable interest in this crop in various parts of India as well as Eastern India. Moreover, avocado can be grown in Darjeeling hilly region and adjoining states of India as the soil and climatic condition is favourable for their growth and development. However, in this region avocado cultivation is very negligible in homestead garden, small and marginal orchard due to lack of scientific knowledge of farmers. So that in this context to identify and conservation of wild and farmers cultivated species of avocado is the major concern for all avocado growers and scientist.

The present investigation on “Assessing the Nutritional and antinutritional componants of promising kabuli chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) genotypes” was carried out with an objective to analyze different 20 promising genotypes of kabuli chickpea for various nutritional and anti-nutritional components. The highest protein content (25.37%) and phytic acid (12.29 mg g-1) were recorded in kabuli chickpea genotype GJGK-1828. The highest value of total sugar content was observed in ICCV-191310 (4.73%) and maximum ash content was found in ICCV-191302 (3.47%). The minimum phytic acid was recorded in genotype ICCV-191301(10.43 mg g-1) which found distant genotypes in dendrogram prepared using biochemical data. The higher trypsin inhibitor was recorded in kabuli chickpea genotype GJGK-1826 (10.33TIU/mg) and lowest trypsin inhibitor content noticed in genotype ICCV-191302 (14.33TIU/mg) and both were fall in different cluster of dendrogram. Minimum value of total phenol was found in ICCV-181314(87.87 mg 100 g-1) and maximum value was observed in kabuli chickpea genotype GKGK-1826 (93.98 mg 100 g-1). Thus, the wide variability of nutritional and antinutritional parameters was observed among the genotype studied.

The higher trypsin inhibitor was recorded in kabuli chickpea genotype GJGK-1826 (10.33TIU/mg) and lowest trypsin inhibitor content noticed in genotype ICCV-191302 (14.33TIU/mg) and both were fall in different cluster of dendrogram. Minimum value of total phenol was found in ICCV-181314(87.87 mg 100 g-1) and maximum value was observed in kabuli chickpea genotype GKGK-1826 (93.98 mg 100 g-1). Thus, the wide variability of nutritional and antinutritional parameters was observed among the genotype studied.","PeriodicalId":13829,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Economic Plants","volume":"95 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73931374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
A laboratory incubation experiment was conducted during December, 2017 to March, 2018 in Department of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry, College of Agriculture, Raichur, Karnataka, India to study the fractionation of phosphorus (P) in black soil amended with different phosphatic fertilizers under submerged condition. The soil were kept under subemerged condition for 90 days and phophatic fertilizers such as single super phosphate (SSP), diammonium phosphate (DAP) and mussoorie rock phosphate (MRP) alone or in combination with FYM and PSB added through 13 treatment combinations. The soil was analyzed for various inorganic P fractions (saloid P, Al-P, Fe-P, RS-P, occluded P,Ca-P) for 90 days at definite intervals. The results showed that calcium bound P (Ca-P) was the dominant fraction in submerged black soil whereas saloid P recorded as the least dominant fraction. It has seen that application of phosphatic fertilizers significantly increased all the P fractions over control. All the forms of P viz., saloid P, aluminium phosphate (Al-P), iron phosphate (Fe-P),reductant soluble P (RS-P) and occluded P were higher for DAP treatment along with FYM and PSB as compared to SSP and MRP whereas application of MRP along with FYM and PSB recorded significantly higher Ca-P during the incubation period. All the fractions of P were significantly higher at 1st day of incubation after which it decreased with passage of incubation time.
2017年12月至2018年3月，在印度卡纳塔克邦Raichur农业学院土壤科学与农业化学系进行了室内培养试验，研究了不同磷肥在浸没条件下黑土中磷的分异规律。土壤在淹水条件下保持90 d，通过13种处理组合，分别单独或联合施用单一过磷酸盐(SSP)、磷酸二铵(DAP)和mussoorie rock phosphate (MRP)等磷肥。在一定的时间间隔内，对土壤中各种无机磷组分(类磷、Al-P、Fe-P、RS-P、闭塞磷、Ca-P)进行了90 d的分析。结果表明，浸没黑土中钙结合态磷(Ca-P)占主导地位，碱态磷占最低地位。结果表明，施用磷肥显著提高了土壤中各磷组分的含量。与SSP和MRP相比，DAP与FYM和PSB处理的所有形式的磷，即类磷、磷酸铝(Al-P)、磷酸铁(Fe-P)、还原剂可溶性磷(RS-P)和封闭磷都更高，而MRP与FYM和PSB处理在孵育期间记录了显著更高的Ca-P。P各组分在孵育第1天均显著升高，之后随孵育时间的延长而降低。

The experiment was carried out during November, 2019 to July, 2020 at Department of Food Safety and Quality Assurance, College of Food Science and Technology, Pulivendula, ANGRAU, Andhra Pradesh, India. A large number of plants show enormous versatility in synthesizing complex materials which have no immediate obvious effect on growth or metabolic functions. Phytochemicals are naturally occurring and biologically active components that have potential disease inhibiting capabilities. Phytochemicals are effective in combating or preventing disease due to their antioxidant effect. The most important of these phytochemicals are alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids, saponins and phenolic compounds. Ocimum is a well-known medicinal plant that consists of various biochemically active components which have many functional effects. The leaf extracts were prepared by using aqueous, acetone, ethanol and methanol solvents and phytochemical analysis was conducted for tannins, saponins, phlabotannins, flavonoids, terpenoids, glycosides and steroids. The results revealed that tannins were found in all the extracts of three Ocimum spp., Saponins were present in all extracts except methanol extract of Ocimum spp., the presence of phlabotannins were observed only in aqueous extract Ocimum spp., Flavonoids were present in aqueous and methanol extracts of Ocimum spp., Glycosides were found in ethanol and methanol extracts of Ocimum spp., The presence of steroids was observed in all extracts except aqueous of Ocimum spp., Terpinoids were present in all extracts except aqueous extract of O. teniflorum and O. gratissimum.
