The present investigation has been carried out at Agricultural Research Station, Mandor, Jodhpur during month of Rabi season (October, 2016–April, 2017) to evaluate 35 genotypes of fenugreek to assess extent of genetic variability, heritability, genetic advance with correlation and path coefficient for yield and its contributing characters. The material was planted in Randomized Block Design with three replications and observations were recorded on individual plant basis. Analysis of variance recorded significant between genotypes for the characters studies. The genotypic and phenotypic coefficient of variation was higher for seed yield per plant (g). High heritability (broad sense) coupled with high genetic advance as percentage of mean was observed for branches per plant, no. of pods per plant, pod length (cm), seeds per pod, test weight (g) and seed yield per plant (g). The correlation analysis at genotypic and phenotypic level, seed yield per plant was positively significant correlated with branches per plant, number of pods per plant, test weight, harvest index, days to 50% flowering, pod length and seeds per pod, but except days to maturity at phenotype level which was correlated with negative significance. Path coefficient analysis suggested that the highest positive direct effect on grain yield per plant was exerted by harvest index (%) followed by seeds per pod, test weight, days to 50% flowering, plant height and branches per plant. Number of pods per plant, pod length (cm) and days to maturity contributed considerable negative direct effect on grain yield per plant.

A study was undertaken at Animal Nutrition Research Station, College of Veterinary Science & Animal Husbandry, Anand Agricultural University, Anand, Gujarat, India during January–March, 2020 to determine effect of feeding Moringa oleifera on nutrient intake, rumen fermentation and economics in adult cattle. Fourteen adult cattle were randomly divided into two groups on the basis of body weight viz., T1 (control): TMR (Wheat straw-70% and Concentrate-30%) and T2 (Treatment): Control TMR+Green Moringa oleifera (replacing TMR with 20% of total protein requirement of animal from green Moringa oleifera). The daily dry matter intake (kg), crude protein intake (g), digestible crude protein intake (g), TDN intake (kg) was found non-significant in both the groups, whereas dry matter intake and TDN intake (kg 100 kg- BW and g kg-1 W0.75) were significantly higher in control group. The crude protein intake (g 100 kg-1 BW) and DCP intake (g 100 kg-1 BW and g kg-1 W0.75) were significantly higher in Moringa supplemented group. The average ruminal pH, ammonical nitrogen (NH3-N) (mg dl-1), Non-protein nitrogen (NPN) (mg dl-1), soluble nitrogen (mg dl-1) and TCA precipitable nitrogen (mg dl-1) were found non-significant. However, the concentration of TVFA (mM dl-1) and total nitrogen (mg dl-1) were significantly higher in Moringa supplemented group. The daily feed cost was reduced by 8.93% in Moringa oleifera supplemented group but statistically the difference was found non-significant.

A study was conducted during February to July, 2020 and 2021 at the Horticultural Research Station Seobagh, Himachal Pradesh, India to evaluate various attributes of plum under the mid-hill temperate zone. Ten plum cultivars Red Beaut, Au Rosa, Au Amber, Satluj Purple, Kala Amritsari, Shiro, Frontier, Mariposa, Black Amber, Queen Rosa, and Angeleno grafted on wild apricot were evaluated alongside with numerous standards in a high-density experimental orchard, and these types were compared with the “Santa Rosa” variety as a control. According to the findings, Red Beaut ripened first whereas the cultivar Mariposa took 150 days from flowering to harvest, making it the last to be picked. The cv. Au Rosa had the largest trunk girth (44 cm), cv. Mariposa likewise had the longest shoots, measuring 180 cm, cv. Frontier had the highest fruit output per tree (145 kg), closely followed by the cv. Black Amber (140 kg) which also has maximum fruit size (5.4 cm), and weight (130 g). The cv. Frontier (14.1°B) showed the highest TSS, followed by the cv. Mariposa (14.0°B), while the cv. Kala Amritsari showed the lowest TSS. The plum cultivar Kala Amritsari displayed the highest fruit acidity, at 2.3%. Due to their ability to extend the repining period from May through August, the plum cultivars Red Beaut, Frointer, Mariposa, and Black Amber were found to be appropriate for commercial cultivation in Himachal Pradesh.

The present study was conducted at Atreypuramu, East Godavari district, Andhra Pradesh, India during June-August, 2022 with the preparation of paper sweet variants followed by fuzzy logic sensory analysis. Initially, polished/milled Jaya variety rice soaked, ground with water and made into batter. The batter without any coarse particles diluted in separate flat containers. Then, a thin cotton cloth was dipped in the diluted batter and spread over the hot curved surface of inverted pot almost maintained at 120–135°C. This structures the paper-thin external front of the sweet. The size of produced rice starch edible film was about 41×30 cm2 and thickness in the range of 0.02–0.05 cm. The four paper sweet variants were prepared by rolling the rice starch film stuffed with various fillings including jaggery/sugar and nuts & jaggery/sugar alone. Fuzzy logic sensory study was conducted for analysis of paper sweets and to compare the acceptability of these paper sweet variants. Ranking was assigned to each sample by calculating fuzzy membership unction, normalized fuzzy membership function, normalized fuzzy membership function matrix, judgment membership function matrix, judgment subset and quality ranking subset. Finally, the weightage average was compared with quality ranking of all paper sweet variants. The results concluded that all four samples were quite comparable; however, paper sweet with jaggery and nuts received the best response.

The study was conducted from August, 2021 to March, 2022 at the Department of Agricultural Engineering, Birsa Agricultural University, Kanke, Ranchi, Jharkhand, India to develop shoe polish based on Karanj oil and the impact of shellac and gum arabic in its formulation. The standardized composition of shoe polish was obtained as 3 part oil and one-part bee wax containing other elements like colour pigment, shellac, gum arabic and turpentine oil. To overcome the problem of colour, sixteen various combinations of shellac and gum arabic were carried out for improvement of colour in each case of black and brown polish. The developed shoe polish was tested for texture, applicability, spreadability, and ease in taking out the material. Colour was recorded with a gloss meter. The highest gloss meter reading i.e. 10.62 GU was recorded in the case of a black shoe polish containing shellac and gum arabic each weighing 0.75 g whereas a sample containing 1.25 g shellac and gum arabic each showed the lowest gloss reading of 3.88 GU. In the case of brown polish, the highest gloss meter reading i.e. 5.24 GU was recorded in the case of a sample containing shellac and gum arabic weighing 1.25 g each, and the lowest was observed in the case of the sample containing shellac weighing 0.5g and gum arabic weighing 0.75 g. Based on gloss value and sensory evaluation, the developed sample was found very near to standard brand shoe polish (Cherry) except that it gave an oily appearance initially.

The study was conducted during May, 2020 to June, 2021 in the Department of Plant Pathology Laboratory of Dr. Y.S Parmar University of Horticulture and Forestry, Nauni, located in Solan district of Himachal Pradesh, India to study the role of various epidemiological parameters on the development of common bacterial blight of French bean. The diseased samples were collected and the pathogen was isolated and purified on Luria Bertani (LB) agar plates. The pathogenicity test was performed on the potted plants as well as on the detached leaves using carborundum abrasion and pin prick method of inoculation. The incubation period on potted plants using carborundum abrasion and pin prick method revealed the initial symptoms after 117.60 h and 120.30 h, respectively, while on detached leaves they were visible after 72.30 h and 84.50 h of inoculation, respectively. Further to study the effect of different epidemiological factors on disease development, the leaves inoculated using carborundum abrasion were subjected to four temperature levels, five relative humidity levels and five different durations of leaf wetness under controlled conditions in relative humidity cum temperature control cabinet. The observations were recorded at different intervals and the data revealed that the pathogen caused severe symptoms on the leaves with high apparent rate of infection under 30°C temperature, 100% RH and a maximum of 24 h of leaf wetness. It was observed that the severity of disease decreased as the temperature raised from 30°C and increased with the rise in RH levels and leaf wetness duration.

The present experiment was carried out in Bidhan Chandra Krishi Viswavidyalaya, Mohanpur, Nadia, West Bengal during April to June of 2022 to find out the best cultivars of this region. The experiment was laid out in Randomized Block Design (RBD) with seven treatments each replicated thrice. The ten years old seven cultivars (Cricket Ball, PKM-1, PKM-2, PKM-3, CO-1, CO-2 and CO-3) are planted in a square system in a spacing of 5×5 m2. The maximum fruit weight was found in CO-1 (73.86 g) and followed by CO-2 (73.53 g). The longest fruit length and dimension were observed from CO-2 (7.00 cm and 5.07 cm respectively). The maximum pulp contains in the cultivar is CO-2 (69.58 g) followed by CO-1 (68.96 g). The maximum value of TSS was found in CO-2 (25.17 oBrix) followed by Cricket Ball (21.22 oBrix) and CO-3 (20.28 oBrix). The lowest acidity was recorded in CO-2 (0.12%) followed by CO-3 (0.16%) and CO-1 (0.20%). The cultivar CO-2 registered the highest values of ascorbic acid (62.85 mg 100 g-1), total sugar (16.78%), non-reducing sugar (6.44%) and TSS: acid ratio (209.72). It can be concluded that CO-2 appeared to be the best variety based on the fruit’s physical and quality attributes. As this experiment was carried out based on a limited number of varieties, more research was required on the existing germplasm of India. That might be supported in sapota’s future production, processing, and marketing.

A field experiment was conducted at wheat experimental farm, Post Graduate College of Agriculture, DRPCAU, Pusa, Bihar to quantify the genetic variability among twenty-nine wheat genotypes under timely and late sowing conditions for tolerance towards terminal heat stress during rabi 2020–2021. The trial was performed in three replications using Randomized Block Design. The study included estimates of genetic variability parameters such as mean, range, phenotypic coefficient of variability, genotypic coefficient of variability, broad-sense heritability, and genetic advance over % of mean. The ANOVA estimations showed that there’s considerable variation across genotypes for all twelve traits investigated across both environments. Traits like grains spike-1 and harvest index displayed considerable genotypic and phenotypic variances across both environments indicating the relevance of these traits in stress conditions. Tillers plant-1 and grain yield plant-1 displayed high genotypic and phenotypic coefficient of variation in timely and late conditions respectively. High heritability reported for traits like days to 50% flowering, canopy temperature, harvest index, grain yield plant-1, tillers plant-1, thousand grain weight and grains spike-1 in both conditions. Under both conditions, tillers plant-1, grains spike-1, harvest index and grain yield plant-1 reported strong heritability along with high genetic advance over % of mean. As a result, direct selection may be made using these features for further genotype improvement under stress conditions for improved heat tolerance.

The trial was performed in three replications using Randomized Block Design. The study included estimates of genetic variability parameters such as mean, range, phenotypic coefficient of variability, genotypic coefficient of variability, broad-sense heritability, and genetic advance over % of mean. The ANOVA estimations showed that there’s considerable variation across genotypes for all twelve traits investigated across both environments. Traits like grains spike-1 and harvest index displayed considerable genotypic and phenotypic variances across both environments indicating the relevance of these traits in stress conditions. Tillers plant-1 and grain yield plant-1 displayed high genotypic and phenotypic coefficient of variation in timely and late conditions respectively. High heritability reported for traits like days to 50% flowering, canopy temperature, harvest index, grain yield plant-1, tillers plant-1, thousand grain weight and grains spike-1 in both conditions. Under both conditions, tillers plant-1, grains spike-1, harvest index and grain yield plant-1 reported strong heritability along with high genetic advance over % of mean. As a result, direct selection may be made using these features for further genotype improvement under stress conditions for improved heat tolerance.","PeriodicalId":507789,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Bio-resource and Stress Management","volume":"6 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139273694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
The study was conducted during August, 2021 to June, 2022 at the Department of Veterinary Anatomy, Veterinary College and Research Institute, Namakkal, Tamilnadu, India to elucidate the histological features to provide reference to physiology, immunology and pathology. The harderian gland samples were collected from Broad Breasted Bronze varieties of turkeys immediately after slaughter. Those were collected from turkeys at 5 months of age before sexual maturity, earlier in the year 2021. The Harderian gland of turkey was compound tubulo-acinar type covered by connective tissue capsule. The inter-lobar septa from the capsule divided the glandular parenchyma into many variously sized and shaped lobes filled with secretory units. The capsule and septa showed collagen, elastic and reticular fibers with numerous fibrocytes and fibroblasts. Each lobe had a secretory component and a lymphoid component. The secretory part was lined by pyramidal cells in acini and columnar cells in tubular units and both had spherical nucleus at base. The lymphoid component was constituted by various populations of lymphoid cells such as lymphoblasts, small, medium and large lymphocytes. It also showed numerous plasma cells. Each lobe had a central duct surrounded by several acinar and tubular secretory units. Each secretory unit was lined by closely attached pyramidal cells in acini and columnar cells in tubular units. Myoepithelial cells were noticed at the base of secretory units. The central duct of each lobe was wide and irregular in shape with many crypts and was drained into a large main duct which extended from the posterior to anterior end of the gland.

A two-year field experiment was conducted at the Research farm of Kisan Post Graduate College (Chaudhary Charan Singh University, Meerut), Simbhaoli, Hapur, Uttar Pradesh, from July-October of 2016 and 2017, respectively, to investigate the response of organic manures (farmyard manure) and chemical fertilizers and their method of application (broadcasting and root zone application) on Groundnut crop under assured irrigation. The soil of the field experiment was clay loam with chemical reaction 7.80, electrical conductivity (0.31 mm uS cm-1), low in organic carbon content (0.37%), low in available nitrogen and medium in phosphorus, and high in potassium. Results of the field experiment revealed that pod yield of groundnut improved by root zone placement of farmyard manure (FYM) and inorganic fertilizers mainly through a significant improvement in weight of 100 kernels. FYM and different NPK levels of fertilizers were applied as broadcasting and root zone placement in different treatments. Application of 14.0 tonnes of FYM ha-1 recorded significantly higher pod yield over the control plot. Root zone application of 75% of the recommended dose of 20 kg N, 80 kg P2O5, and 20 kg K2O ha-1 resulted in higher dry matter accumulation which leads to higher pod yield. Amid the interaction effect, a combination of 14.0 tonnes of FYM ha-1+75% RDF, 14.0 tonnes of FYM ha-1+root zone application and 100% RDF of NPK+root zone application obtained the highest pods yield as compared to other treatment combinations.
