Potato chips are very popular product especially among younger generations. This could be a potential source of acrylamide, a toxic compound which could develop during frying and baking processes. The main objective of this study to evaluate the acrylamide reduction potential of mint leaves solution, ginger and garlic paste solution and lemon juice in fried potato chips. Potatoes slices were fried at two different temperature and time combination such as 160 o C for 7 mins and 180 o C for 4 mins by using refined peanut oil. Prior to frying, the potato slices were treated in following ways i.e. rinsing in distilled water plus blanching in hot water at 100 o C for 2 mins plus immersion in 0.5 and 1.0 per cent of mint leaves solution (T1), ginger garlic paste solution (T2) and lemon juice (T3) for 1 h. The fried potato chips were analysed for acrylamide content. The result of the study showed, that the sample treated with 1.0 per cent of lemon juice (T3) and fried at 160 o C for 7 min had maximum acrylamide inhibitory effect. Frying time and temperature had the greatest influence on acrylamide formation.

Monitoring cucurbit fruit fly using cue lure trap, banana pulp bait and jaggery based poison bait were carried out at district, Deoria, Uttar Pradesh for two consecutive years, 2014-15 and 201516. Among the attractants cue lure attracted maximum number of Bactrocera cucurbitae followed by banana pulp bait. While comparing different months of the year highest number of trapping was recorded in July and August (20.03 and 20.68 adults/ trap) followed by September and October (15.59 and 12.21 adults / trap). Pooled incidence data on trap catches showed significant positive correlation with maximum & minimum temperature and rainfall in all the lures, but non-significant positive with average relative humidity.

Food insecurity is linked to low yields in the production, low investment in technology, and high transaction costs for local markets, as well as low wages and a high percentage of uneducated low-skilled workers in rural areas. The present investigation was carried out to estimate the yield gap and attempt has been made to know the factors affecting the yield gap in rapeseeds & mustard crop in the state of Bihar. Plot level data of Cost of Cultivation Scheme, GoI was used in the study for the year 2015-16. Simple regression analysis was applied to identify the factors influencing yield gaps. The result of the investigation revealed that variety of seed, irrigation and education level of the cultivators were the important and significant factors for the present yield gap, and addressing them about 54% variation in yield may be bridged.

Field experiment was conducted during the kharif season 2016 to evaluate the effect of Variety and Spacing on the Productivity of Direct Seeded Rice (Oryza sativa L.). Four rice cultivars CAU-R1, RCM-7, RCM-10 and KD-263 were sown with three row spacing 15, 20 and 25 cm). The experiment was laid out in a (FRBD) with three replication. Consequences shown that among four rice varieties, CAU-R1 produced significantly higher no of tiller per square meter (96.44) and no of effective tiller per square meter (88.58) than other varieties. Significantly higher no of filled grain per panicle (146.18), test weight (26.71g), grain yield (50.57 q /ha) and straw yield (66.60 q ha-1) were also recorded from CAU-R1 than other verities. Planting at 25 cm row spacing resulted in significantly higher number of tillers per square meter (90.18), effective tillers per square meter (86.82), Panicle length (25.24 cm), No. of filled grain/ panicle(146.27) and grain yield (44.68 q ha-1) as compared to 20 and 15cm row spacing. However, plant height (130.09 cm), No. of unfilled spiklets per panicle (36.12) and Straw yield (66.70 q/ha) were significantly greater with 15 cm row spacing.

The seed cluster bean exhibited significant variations in growth and flowering due to spray of growth regulators. The highest plant height was recorded in the HG 365 and among the growth regulators maximum plant height was recorded by the application of triacontanol at 1500 ppm which was on par with 1000 ppm. In case of earliest occurrence of 50% flowering was noticed in variety HG 563 and lowest number of days to 50% flowering was recorded by the application of CCC at 1500 ppm which was on par with CCC 1000 ppm. The highest seed yield per plant was recorded by HG 365, whereas in growth regulators maximum seed yield per plant was recorded by the application of CCC at 1500 ppm which was on par with CCC 1000 ppm.

The present study was undertaken to isolate Rhizobium leguminosarum strains from the nodules of Pea (Pisum sativum (L)) var AP-3 grown in the soil of Hoshiarpur. These isolated nitrogen fixing strains were also tested for their tendency to solubilize Tricalcium Phosphate (TCP) on Pikovskaya (PVK) agar, Modified Pikovskaya (MPVK) agar and National Botanical Research Institute (NBRIP agar). The halo size of R. leguminosarum SS-8 was reported to be biggest (13 mm) on NBRIP agar and the smallest (4 mm) in PVK agar. These strains were further inoculated in PVK and NBRIP broths, respectively to see their potentials to solubilize TCP. The strain R. leguminosarum SS-8 was observed to show maximum TCP solubilisation (261 μg/ml in NBRIP and 211 μg/ml in PVK broths) with maximum decrease in pH (4.14 in NBRIP and 4.20 in PVK

Tuberculosis is an infectious disease causing more than 1.6 million deaths worldwide every year. This morbidity is due to the lack of early diagnosis of tuberculosis especially in the Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis. In this study, we assess the regulation of miRNA-21 in the plasma samples of Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis infected patients. This study employed 20 Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis plasma samples and 10 Healthy control plasma samples. After evaluating the expression of miRNA-21 by Quantitative Real-Time PCR [qRT-PCR], miRNA-21 was found to be up-regulated in plasma samples of Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis as compared to the plasma samples of Healthy control. The expression analysis was mainly done by using 2 -ΔΔC T method. The ROC curve analysis revealed the diagnostic potential of the miRNA-21 in Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis with a good AUC value of 0.95. Our results conclude that the miRNA-21 have a potential application and can act as a biomarker in the diagnosis of Extrapulmonary Tuberculosis.
