The study was undertaken to standardize treatments for developing fresh cut produce of broccoli which can be stored for a certain period of time. For this, the broccoli heads were cut into small florets and were dipped in various treatment combinations for ten minutes. After that the florets were dried under a fan and then packaging was carried out by Low Density Poly Ethylene with storage in refrigerated condition. Various physical, chemical and microbial parameters were studied and analyzed throughout the storage period. From the study it was found that the combination treatment of calcium hypochlorite, calcium chloride and citric acid was most suitable. The florets treated with this treatment were able to retain various physical and chemical attributes during the study, with least microbial contaminations.

Tuberculosis is a lethal disease worldwide due to absences of early diagnostic processes. microRNAs have been denoted their functional and diagnostic potential in various diseases like cancer and tuberculosis. In the present study, we performed the miRNA isolation from the clinical confirm pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) and healthy control cases. We have observed the up-regulation of serum microRNA-21 in serum sample of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) patients. Our results based on qRT-PCR confirmation and receiver operational curve (ROC) analysis indicate that the serum microRNA-21 can be explored as potential non invasive biomarker for early detection of pulmonary tuberculosis infection in human.

The investigation was carried out for characterization of 119 rice Temperature Sensitive Genic Male Sterile (TGMS) lines for morphological, yield traits at fertility favoring environment; sterility and floral traits at sterility favoring environment. The analysis of variances exhibited highly significant differences for all the character studied except sterile lemma length. The TGMS lines viz., TNAU 115S and TNAU 139S was found to be earlier for days to 50% flowering in both environments. Based on floral traits viz., pollen fertility per cent, pollen sterility per cent, panicle exertion per cent, anther length, stigma breadth, glume opening angle, the following TGMS lines namely TNAU 147S, TNAU 103S, TNAU 14S, TNAU 19S, TNAU 45S and TNAU 100S were identified as promising TGMS lines. These lines can be used as male sterile parents for development of two line rice hybrids,

A total of 111 rhizobacterial isolates were isolated from 24 rhizospheric soil samples collected from different finger millet growing locations of Bastar plateau of Chhattisgarh. Of these 111 isolates, 40 were found to antagonize Pyricularia grisea in the range of 22.22-44.44 %, 38 to Rhizoctonia solani ranging 22.22-38.89 % and 30 to both. Of 30, 24 isolates reduced growth of Pyricularia grisea by producing volatile biocidal compounds while 14 inhibited growth of Rhizoctonia solani. Three bacterial isolates produced HCN while all of them produced ammonia (90.334.38 μmol/ml). Twenty three of 30 isolates produced siderophore in the range of 1.13.82. Eighteen bacterial isolates produced β,1-4 glucanases (1.22-2.36) and amylase (1.35-2.33 ) while 17 were positive for protease (1.38-2.61). Screening of 30 antagonistic bacterial isolates for P-solubilization ability revealed that 19 could solubilize tricalcium phosphate in the range of 1.58-2.55. All the isolates tested positive for IAA production, however, presence of tryptophan greatly affected the IAA production pattern of isolates. In the absence of tryptophan, IAA production ranged from 1.74-4.86 μg/ml in contrast to 3.48-38.08μg/ml in presence of tryptophan.

The field experiment was conducted at Research Farm, Department of Agronomy, at CCS Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar during Rabi seasons 2017-18 with the objective to study performance of wheat varieties as influenced by nutrient sources of nitrogen under semi-arid environment in split plot design with three replications. In the main plots there were five wheat varieties (WH-1105, WH-1142, HD-3086, HD-2967 and DBW-88) and in sub plots there were different nitrogen source namely 100 RDN through inorganic source (urea) , 100 per cent RDN through organic source (vermicompost) and 50 per cent RDN through inorganic + 50 per cent RDN through organic source. The variety WH-1105 produced significantly taller plant with higher dry matter accumulation per meter row length and grain yield over other varieties but did not differ significantly with variety HD-3086. Combined application of 50 per cent RDN through inorganic source + 50 per cent RDN through organic source had significantly improved the growth component viz. plant height and dry matter accumulation over 100 per cent RDN organic source but did not differ significantly with 100 per cent RDN through inorganic. Significantly higher grain yield was obtained with 100 per cent RDN through inorganic source over 100 per cent RDN through organic source but it was statistically at par with 50 per cent RDN through inorganic + 50 per cent RDN through organic source. The grain yield increased under the 100 per cent RDN through inorganic source by 29.1, 8.2 % over 100 RDN through organic source and 50 per cent RDN through inorganic + 50 per cent RDN through organic source, respectively.

Risk of falling is commonly reported among older adults and can impact negatively on physical and social activities, mood and quality of life. A differential research design employed to know the effects of age, gender and socio-economic status on risk of falling among 480 elderly revealed that risk of falling was significantly higher among older elderly (75 years and above) compared to young old (60-74 years) in both the regions of Northern Karnataka and Upper Assam. In urban area of Northern Karnataka region, 75.0 per cent of young old were with while medium risk of falling whereas 65.0 per cent of the older elderly had high risk of falling. In rural area, both young old (53.3%) and older elderly (50.0%) were at high risk of falling. In rural Upper Assam region, both young old (80.0%) and older elderly (52.0%) had medium risk of falling, whereas, in urban area, 94.3 per cent of the young old were at medium level of risk of falling, while 75.8 per cent of the older elderly had high risk of falling. Gender and socioeconomic status did not influence the risk of falling in both the regions. Significant association was noticed with risk of falling and quality of life among elderly of rural northern Karnataka. The tools used were Global Physical Activity Questionnairesubscale Risk of Falling developed by WHO (2005), Older People’s Quality of life Questionnaire (OPQOL-35) developed by Bowling (2009) and Socio-economic status developed by Aggarwal et al.

Variable Selection is an important problem in classification and discriminant analysis. The selection of important variables for the purpose of discrimination between populations is important from the point of view of time and resources required for the experimentation. Keeping this in view, the present study has been designed to find important characters of Indian mustard which can discriminate between high and low yielding genotypes. Secondary data set on 310 genotypes of Indian mustard recorded for 12 characters was used for discrimination between populations of low and high yielding genotypes of Indian mustard. Three variable selection methods (Univariate t-test, Rao ́s F test for additional Information and Random Forests Algorithm) for classification and discrimination were used and compared. Performance of the methods was assessed in terms of leave one out cross-validation error and out of bag error rate for classification. The Four most important variables for discrimination among genotypes based on seed yield per plants were secondary branches, primary branches, days to maturity and siliqua number on main shoot.

Angiogenesis has crucial role in malignant tumor growth. Nigella sativa has been used in traditional medicine to treat many ailments like immunomodulation, anti-inflammatory analgesic etc. The present study was undertaken in order to evaluate the effect of ethanolic extract of N. sativa on angiogenesis in mouse model. The antiangiogenic potential was investigated by sponge implantation method, wherein significant inhibition of blood vessel formation, haemoglobin concentration and VEGF concentration were recorded. Animals (18) were divided in three groups where group I was kept as untreated, group II treated with SU5416 and group III was treated with ethanolic extract of N. sativa. The results were compared with positive control SU5416 and untreated group. By using Cyanmethemoglobin method the mean (±SE) haemoglobin concentrations (μg/mg weight of sponge) in mice were 1.918 ± 0.087 in untreated group, 0.365 ± 0.031 in positive control group, 0.425 ± 0.037 in N. sativa extract treated group. The mean (±SE) VEGF concentration (pg/mg weight of sponge) in groups I to III of mice were 2.369 ± 0.198, 0.562 ± 0.074, 0.675 ± 0.209 respectively. The MVD (±SE) per field from processed sponges in groups I to III of mice were14 ± 2.84, 1 ± 0.36, 3.5 ± 0.764 respectively. The results of the present study suggested that the ethanolic extract of Nigella sativa seeds possesses antiangiogenic activity.

Thirty genotypes of groundnut were studied during kharif, 2017 to estimate variability, heritability and genetic advance for twenty two characters contributing to yield, water use efficiency and quality. Analysis of variance revealed that there was a significant variation among the genotypes for all the characters studied. The characters number of immature pods per plant, number of mature pods per plant, kernel yield per plant, number of pods per plant, number of pegs per plant, total free amino acids and pod yield per plant exhibited high GCV and PCV indicating ample amount of variation among the genotypes. High heritability coupled with high genetic advance as per cent of mean were recorded for the characters plant height, number of pegs per plant, number of mature pods per plant, number of pods per plant, kernel yield per plant, carbohydrate content and total free amino acids indicating the preponderance of additive gene action in expression of these characters and selection would be effective for improvement of these characters.
