Shelf life of food products is one of most debated issue in the regime of food processing and technology. Edible coating is a thin layer of edible material which provides a barrier against transfer of gasses, water vapors and solute particles across the food membrane. Melon is a rich source of nutrients like vitamins, minerals, flavonoids and phenolic compounds. It provides cooling effect to stomach. The present research is an effort to extend the shelf life of minimally processed melon fresh-cuts. Minimal processing offers additional value to fresh-cut produce regarding convenience and ready-to-eat attributes. For the purpose, different edible coating formulations like carbohydrate based chitosan 1% (T 1 ), chitosan 2% (T 2 ), chitosan 3% (T 3 ) and alginate 1% (T 4 ), alginate 2% (T 5 ) and alginate 3% (T 6 ) were developed. Additionally, coated fruit were also compared with that of control (T o ). During storage, melon dices were evaluated for various physicochemical analysis e.g. weight, color, total soluble solids, ascorbic acid after three days of interval to check the effect of edible coatings on these quality traits along with shelf life extension. It has been concluded after the analysis that T 3 has proved to be effective treatment in maintaining acidity, total soluble solids and color as compared to other treatments.

*Pakistan is an under developed country and its education can play a vital role for equipping the individual with latest knowledge and also takes steps for the all-round development of the individual’s personality (like spiritual, moral and physical). There is need to take measures of social inclusion to avoid unequal access of its individual towards education. The present study was conducted to investigate the factors that affect the learning achievements of the respondents according to their age, class, family type, parent’s income, parent’s education, teacher behavior and also the motivational factors. The relationship between social exclusion and education was also explored. Cross-sectional study was conducted in Madina town Faisalabad. A sample of 200 hundred respondents was collected through well-structured questionnaire. SPSS software was used to analyze the collected data. It was found that respondents' parents were educated and have nuclear family system and majority of the respondents were agreed with the opinion that teacher improves their performance. It is suggested that parents may share their responsibilities with teachers for improving their children’s achievements.

Selecting the suitable sowing method on right sowing dates can maximize the outcomes of the interaction between these two factors, thus increasing grain yield and quality parameters of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). The present study aimed at determining the most appropriate sowing time and methods that maximizes the total crude protein and soluble starch contents of the wheat grains. Wheat cultivar (Sehar-2006) was evaluated under three sowing methods (Bed planting, drill/line sowing and broadcasting) planted at three sowing times (November-15, November-30 and December-30) during 2008 and 2009. Randomized complete block design with split plot arrangements was applied for this study. For both quality parameters (Protein and starch), interaction of sowing methods and time were found non-significant while for the both individual effects significant results were obtained for total soluble starch. For total crude protein, effect of sowing time was non-significant but significant for sowing methods.

The Chrysoperla carnea (Green lacewing) is an important predator of soft bodied insect pests of different crops like wheat, Maize, Cotton and others in Pakistan. Morphology, behavior and ecophysiology studies of Chrysoperla carnea were examined by the researcher while molecular study had not been checked. In this experiment the aim was to expand the studies up to molecular level to examine the systematic of Chrysoperla carnea. The results indicated that the level of DNA variation was high among the five Chrysoperla carnea species. Therefore, RAPD markers can be used successfully for the identification of Chrysoperla carnea species. The genetic similarity matrix of RAPD data for the five Chrysoperla carnea species was constructed. The genetic similarities of these lacewing species were ranging from 55% to 82%. Genetic similarity co-efficient for the five C. carnea species were utilized for the construction of a dandrogram by the UPGMA method. Since DNA polymorphism between the five green lace wing species is high (45%) as revealed by RAPD analysis. Dandrogram analysis showed a wide range of groupings for genetic similarity among five C. carnea species.

*Soil samples were collected from Mardan district, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan and were analyzed for physico-chemical parameters (pH, EC, SOM), major cations (Na, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn) and heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Zn, Ni, Cr, Cd, As) concentrations using atomic absorption spectrometer. Based on concentration values, the major cations was found in order of Na> Ca >Fe> K > Mg >Mn. Increasing order of the heavy metal concentrations were as Zn > Cr > Ni > Cu >Pb> As > Cd. The enhanced values of heavy metals in the studied soils could be due to sulfide and mafic minerals in the soils of the study area. Metal concentrations were used to quantify pollution contamination factors (CFs) and pollution load index (PLI). It can be concluded from this classification that soils of the study area are polluted with some of the heavy metals.
