Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are often applied as bio-inoculants due to their plant growth promoting benefits. The objectives of the present work were to maximize the shelf life of monoxenically produced carrier-based AM fungal bio-inocula of Rhizoglomus intraradices and Funneliformis mosseae. Shelf life of in vitro produced inoculum was studied by assessing the infectivity potential of in vitro produced inocula in an optimum carrier formulation (vermiculite: cow dung powder: wood powder: wood ash in the ratio of 20:8:2:1) during storage at three different temperatures viz., 4 °C, 25 °C and room temperature (RT). The re-germination potential of in vitro produced spores from carrier-based inocula to in vitro conditions was also examined. The in vitro produced inocula stored at 25 °C remained viable up to 6 mo in the organic carrier formulation. 100 % germination was recorded when the spores of both AM species were cultured back to in vitro conditions indicating high viability, and efficiency of the carrier formulation in maintaining vigour of in vitro produced propagules.

Bio-stimulators are organic products that have been found to enhance crop growth and productivity through mitigating against biotic and abiotic stresses. Four Cowpea varieties namely K80, M66, KVU 27-1 and Kenya Kunde; commercially released and adopted by local households for vegetable production were used to evaluate the impact of bio-stimulators on growth and leaf yield of cowpea in Juja and Katumani from May to July, 2013. The treatments were arranged in a factorial structure, laid out in an RCBD, which were combination of 9 levels of bio-stimulators, with the 4 cowpea varieties planted per site, and giving a total of 36 treatments for each site replicated 3 times. The plots measured 2.5m by 2.5m with spacing of 60 cm by 20 cm. Parameters under investigation included germination rate, days to germination, plant height, and number of leaves produced and number of nodules formed. Cultural practices such as weeding and pest control were done as need arose. The results showed that there were significant differences in days to germination, germination rate, plant population, chlorophyll levels, leaf weight, plant height and leaf area but not in leaf area between Juja and Katumani. Earliest germination and highest leaf weight were in Katumai whereas highest plant population, germination rate and chlorophyll levels and leaf area were in Juja. Humates improved germination rate, plant height, leaf weight and nodule development in Juja while seaweed extracts improved days to germination, germination rate, plant height, leaf yield, leaf weight and nodule formation in Katumani. Interaction between site and bio-stimulators was recorded in germination rate, days to germination, plant population and in number of leaves produced. Therefore, bio-stimulators should be adopted in production of cowpea leaves particularly offseason for food and nutritional security and increasing household incomes in Kenya
生物刺激剂是一种有机产品，通过减轻生物和非生物的压力来促进作物生长和生产力。K80、M66、KVU 27-1和肯亚昆德四个豇豆品种;2013年5 - 7月，在Juja和Katumani地区，采用商业投放和当地家庭蔬菜生产中采用的生物刺激剂对豇豆生长和叶片产量的影响进行了评价。处理按因子结构排列，在RCBD中布置，9个水平的生物刺激剂组合，每个地点种植4个豇豆品种，每个地点共36个处理，重复3次。地块大小为2.5m × 2.5m，间距为60 cm × 20 cm。研究参数包括发芽率、发芽天数、株高、产叶数和结瘤数。如除草和虫害防治等文化活动是根据需要进行的。结果表明:红枣和卡图马尼在发芽期、发芽率、植株数量、叶绿素水平、叶重、株高和叶面积方面存在显著差异，但在叶面积方面差异不显著。发芽率、发芽率、叶绿素水平和叶面积均以枣果最高，发芽率最高，叶重最高。腐植酸提高了枣的发芽率、株高、叶重和根瘤发育，海藻提取物提高了卡图马尼的发芽期、发芽率、株高、叶产量、叶重和根瘤形成。在发芽率、发芽期、植物种群和产叶数等方面记录了场地与生物刺激剂的相互作用。因此，为了肯尼亚的粮食和营养安全以及增加家庭收入，应在豇豆叶生产特别是淡季生产中采用生物刺激剂

Capsaicin, a secondary metabolite produced in capsicum, is in high demand in pharmaceutical industry because of its various medicinal properties. Currently, the supply of capsaicin depends upon its extraction from capsicum fruits. This limits the production of capsaicin as it depends upon agricultural produce. The current review has compiled information from various literature published on chemistry and importance of capsaicin along with its method of production. It also reviews the process of in vitro production of capsaicin through plant tissue culture, strategies of increasing capsaicin accumulation and its advantages over extraction from fruits and artificial synthesis.

A study was conducted in interspecific cotton hybrids ( Gossypium hirsutum L. × Gossypium barbadense L.) to assess the extent of the heterosis for eight yield and yield attributing traits. Twelve lines of G. hirsutum and five testers of G. barbadense were crossed in line x tester manner to develop 60 F 1 hybrids. Analysis of variance revealed the significant differences among the crosses for all traits. Heterosis was worked out over mid parent, better parent and two standard checks i.e. MRC 7918 and Varalaxmi. Crosses RAH1065 x SUJALA, PH1075 x SUJALA, PH348 x SUJALA and DHY286 x Suvin were the best heterotic combinations for seed cotton yield and could be utilized for hybrid development. These hybrids were shown desirable heterosis for seed cotton yield along with other yield components. These hybrids may be tested in large scale trial to confirm the superiority in heterosis.

An efficient and reproducible protocol is established for rapid in vitro multiplication of an endangered, valuable medicinal plant, Butea monosperma (Lam.) Taub. Var. lutea , through cotyledonary nodes of mature seeds. Among various cytokinins tested, high frequency of direct shoot regeneration was induced on Murashige and skoog (MS) medium supplemented with BAP, which found to be more effective and showed optimal response at 2 mg/L with a maximum number of 8.35±0.32 multiple shoots per explant. Proliferation of shoots was established by repeated subculturing on to same regeneration medium with 2-3 weeks of time interval. Rooting of regenerated shoots was achieved after 3 weeks of culture on MS medium containing 1 mg/L IBA. In vitro raised plantlets were transferred to pots containing sterilized soil and vermiculate mixture in 1:1 ratio and then shifted to greenhouse. Well established plantlets exhibited 75% survival rate.

The aim of the present study was to explore the possible metabolites in the methanolic extract of root, stem, groat and hull of the neutraceutical crop, Fagopyrum tataricum using GC-MS technique. From GC-MS metabolite profiling, over 90 different metabolites were identified among root, stem, groat and hull extract. The most prevailing compounds were 3, 3’, 4’, 5, 7-pentahydroflavone-3-rhamnoglucoside (71.94%) in groat, 9, 12-octadecadienoic acid (49.38%) in root, 6-octadecanoic acid, a steric acid (70.46%) in hull and Cis-9-hexadecanal (13.38%) in stem. Present investigation reveals that F. tataricum is an excellent source of many metabolites such as, fatty acids, hydrocarbons, steroids, terpenoids, esters, organic acids and aldehydes with excellent pharmaceutical properties. These results suggest that tartary buckwheat could be a promising alternative in the functional food sector and neutraceutical to improve social well-being and diminish malnutrition.

This study aims to investigate the pollen and seed characters by light microscopy (LM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) as related to biochemical data of seed protein and esterase isoenzymes by SDS-PAGE technique in the five Saudi Arabian Ocimum L. species. The detailed description for pollen and seed in addition electrophoretic patterns were conducted by means of numerical analyses based on thirty-nine parameters. The pollen grains were zonocolpate, hexacolpate, prolate to subprolate. Three types of exine ornamentation were recognized, perforate, reticulate and granulate. Also, The periclinal, the anticlinal and the boundaries between cells are described by the aid of SEM which exhibited four main distinct types of nutlets sculpture undulate, quirky, circular and straight. Molecular patterns of protein profiles and esterase (EC.3.1.1.1) showed that esterase could be considered as positive markers than protein, minimum and maximum gene / gene expression of esterase isoenzymes are demonstrated. The relationships between the studied taxa were demonstrated as a phenogram.
