This study deals with the identification of 59 cyanobacterial species belonging to 27 genera from different freshwater habitats of Kaiga in Uttara Kannada district of Karnataka during the period from June 2009 to May 2011. Samplings were made during pre-monsoon; monsoon and post-monsoon sampling have been carried out for the duration of 2 years. The study deals with the occurrence of cyanobacterial species in five different aquatic habitats in Kaiga region, with respect to a change in the physico-chemical properties of water. The cyanobacterial diversity is maximum in monsoon season compared to post-monsoon; it was least during pre-monsoon. Among cyanobacteria non-heterocystous filamentous forms were dominant followed by unicellular forms, whereas heterocystous forms were least in number. It was also found that the physicho-chemical properties of water have the influence on the richness of cyanobacterial community. This study indicates the maximum occurrence and abundance of Chroococaceae (23.73%) and Phormidaceae (18.64%) members in all the sites, whereas Stigonemataceae (1.7%) shows very less occurrence. Among the cyanobacteria identified non-heterocystous filamentous forms were dominant followed by unicellular forms; whereas heterocystous forms were least in number.

SUMMARY Helminthosporium leaf blight (HLB) is one of the most destructive diseases of wheat in terai (plain) region of Nepal. This study was conducted to determine the effect of long-term application of various levels of Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K) and organic nutrients on HLB disease of wheat. The experiment was super imposed on long-term fertility experiment conducted in RCB design with three replications under rice- wheat cropping pattern at National wheat research program (NWRP), Bhairahawa, Nepal. The treatments include various combinations of 100 kg Nitrogen/ha, 0 and 60 kg Phosphorus/ha and 0, 50 and 100 kg Potash /ha with or without Sesbania ( Sesbania cannabina ) and Farm Yard Manure (FYM). Area under disease progress curve was calculated using the disease scores and yield parameters were recorded. Among the inorganic nutrients, long-term deficiency of potash in the field markedly enhances the HLB disease. Application of phosphorus in various doses increased the HLB severity in absence of potash. Regular application of at least 50 kg potash/ha in wheat noticeably reduced the HLB disease. Regular use of FYM 10 ton/ha for long term considerably reduced the HLB disease but long term use of Sesbania as green manure hadn’t any impact on HLB severity. Inclusion of potash in nutrients considerably increased the yield and thousand-grain weight (TGW) of wheat. In long term, balanced use of inorganic and organic nutrients with special attention on regular inclusion of potash and FYM in the nutrient combinations is vital in suppression of HLB disease under rice-wheat cropping pattern.

Mutation breeding gives better results for crop improvement through genetic manipulations when compared to other conventional breeding techniques. The present work focused in order to find out the effect of chemical mutagens; EMS and DES on Setaria italica in M1 generation. The seeds of Tenai, variety CO(Te)7 treated with different concentration of EMS and DES. The LD50 was observed at 30 mmol in EMS and 40 mmol in DES. Selection studies were conducted to improve the yield and to generate genetic variability in different quantitative traits such as days to first bloom, plant height, number of leaves, number of nodes, length and breadth of ear head, 1000 seed weight and yield per plant. The results revealed that, all the parameters were decreased with increasing concentration in both EMS and DES, while days to first bloom was increasing with increasing concentration. According to the result all the parameters studied shows a negative direction towards crop improvement in M1 generation because of the stress caused by mutagenic treatment.

In the present investigation, an attempt has been made to identify the variation in nutritional value of Grewia tenax fruits from different regions of Rajasthan, India. Fruits were collected from Jodhpur (Kailana, Bilara) and Barmer (Siwana) region and analyzed nutritionally. Maximum ash and vitamin C content was obtained in samples from Siwana (4.73% and 56.47% respectively). Maximum fat content (2.66 %) was obtained in samples from Bilara. Maximum sugar and protein content was obtained in samples from Kailana (35.51% and 8.4% respectively). They are rich in vitamin C (39 mg/100 gm) content. The fruits are also rich sources of minerals such as Ca (0.32±0.03 g/100g), K (1.26±0.31g/100 g) and Na (1.49±0.32 g/100g) than the cultivated crop plants. Trace elements such as Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn and Mg were also analyzed. These results of nutritional composition were compared with those collected from Bilara and Siwana area of Jodhpur region. Many medicinal applications of G. tenax viz. as remedy for colds and chest complaints have also been reported. Thus, the importance of G. tenax in the rural economy is highly significant.

It is a well-known fact that the quality and quantity of the rice crop is reduced due to plant disease. This paper proposes rice blast disease detection mechanism using Machine learning algorithm, to identify the disease in the early stage of the crop cultivation. The proposed method would find the blast disease and reduce the crop loss and hence increase the rice agriculture production in an effective manner. The images of the paddy field are captured and eight features are extracted to distinguish the healthy and the disease affected leaves. The proposed machine learning based classification methodology includes KNN and ANN. The performance of these two classification techniques is compared using an appropriate confusion matrix. The simulation results show that KNN based classification method provides an accuracy of 85% for the blast affected leaf images and 86% for the normal leaf images. The accuracy is improved to 99% and 100% respectively for the ANN based classification mechanisms.

Among the various technologies that boost the production of crop, nutrient management has got an important impact in maximizing the yield. Application of balanced fertilizers alone is not only the solution for this problem, application of residue free nutrients that protects the soil health and environment is very important. Here comes the concept of organic farming. Hence, a field experiment was conducted in the Department of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar to study the effect of organic nutrients on growth and physiological parameters of radish. The experiment was conducted with eighteen treatments in three replications and laid out in FRBD design. The treatment includes various sources of organic manures viz., FYM, vermicompost, enriched manure along with and without use of consortium biofertilizer. Biostimulants viz., buttermilk solution and EMI were given as foliar spray at 15 d interval as 2 sprays. The intercultural operations and plant protection measures were carried out as per the recommendation. The results of the experiment revealed that application of farm yard manure @ 25 t ha-1 along with consortium biofertilizer @ 2 Kg ha-1 and EMI @ 1:1000 dilution ha1 as foliar application recorded the highest growth parameters viz., shoot length, number of leaves and shoot weight. The physiological parameters viz., leaf area and chlorophyll content were recorded the highest in the same treatment T6.
在促进作物生产的各种技术中,养分管理对产量最大化具有重要影响。仅施用平衡肥并不能解决这一问题,施用无残留养分对保护土壤健康和环境至关重要。这就是有机农业的概念。为此,在安纳玛莱大学农学院园艺系进行了田间试验,研究有机养分对萝卜生长和生理参数的影响。试验采用FRBD设计,分3个重复,共18个处理。该处理包括各种来源的有机肥料,即FYM,蚯蚓堆肥,强化肥料以及使用或不使用联合生物肥料。生物刺激剂,即酪乳溶液和EMI作为叶面喷雾,每隔15 d喷2次。跨文化行动和植物保护措施是按照建议进行的。试验结果显示,叶面施用农家肥25 t hm -1、联合生物肥料2 Kg hm -1和EMI 1:1000稀释hm -1,记录了最高的生长参数,即茎长、叶片数量和茎重。同一处理T6的叶面积、叶绿素含量等生理指标最高。
