Among small indigenous species (SIS) of fishes Mola (Amblypharyngodon mola) has high nutritive value. Beside traditional curry preparation it is necessary to make available this highly nutritive fish in other ‘ready to eat’ forms and also adding value to this fish. Therefore, this study was carried out to prepare fish pickle with Mola (Amblypharyngodon mola) and to observe the changes in biochemical parameters and bacterial load of this pickle stored at room temperature (28°C to 32°C). The study was conducted in the Department of Fisheries Technology Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University. The results of the study showed that the percent moisture and protein content decreased while lipid and ash content increased after preparation of pickle than those of fresh fishes. The fish pickle stored at room temperature (28°C to 32°C) in sealed and vacuum sealed packing conditions, the percent moisture, protein and lipid content decreased with the progress in storage period gradually but ash content increased. At this temperature (at both sealed and vacuum sealed pack), pH value of the pickle decreased very slowly but the TVB-N value and bacterial load increased gradually throughout the storage period. So, it was concluded that, at room temperature (28°C to 32°C) shelf life of Mola (Amblypharyngodon mola) fish pickle was short, pickle may remain in acceptable condition until 12 days in sealed pack and 30 days in vacuum sealed pack.

High Plains Aquifer is one of the most important aquifers in the United States, accounting for one-fourth of total annual freshwater withdrawal, and one-fifth of crop production of some major crops. But the area above this aquifer has not been extensively researched for determining the risk of groundwater pollution. Therefore, this study was undertaken to determine the groundwater pollution potential using the DRASTIC model in a Geographic Information System (GIS) environment. Despite the limited data availability, DRASTIC model proved effective in delineating areas of High Plains Aquifer susceptible to groundwater contamination. The results from the model indicated that large portions of southwestern Texas, central Kansas, eastern Colorado, eastern Wyoming, western and north-western Nebraska were highly vulnerable to groundwater pollution whereas Oklahoma had the lowest vulnerability.

An experiment was conducted during the period of December 2014 to March, 2015 in the Entomology Field Laboratory, Department of Entomology, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh on the management of tomato fruit borer, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) using different biorational insecticides on winter tomato variety BARI-2 in Bangladesh. Efficacy of seven different biorational insecticides viz. Neem oil, Mahogany oil, Karanja oil, Ambush 1.8EC, Libsen 45SC, Emamectin benzoate 5SG and Beauveria bassiana were evaluated on the basis of percentage of fruit damage and percentage increase/decrease of yield. All the biorational insecticides were significantly effective in comparison to control treatment. Besides, among seven insecticides; Emamectin benzoate 5SG provided the best result with the lowest cumulative mean percentage fruit infestation (20.95 % & 17.24% based on number & weight, respectively). Percentage reduction of infested fruit was the highest (57.50 & 62.38%, by no. and weight, respectively) in Emamectin treated plots. Similarly the highest percentage protection (58.99 & 63.06% by no. and weight, respectively) of infested fruit was also found from the Emamectin benzoate treatment. But Libsen 45SC revealed the highest efficacy on marketable fruit yield (20.23tonha-1) compared to other treatments. So, Emamectin benzoate and Libsen both might be used to manage tomato fruit borer effectively.

Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae is a major pathogen of rice that causes bacterial leaf blight (BLB) disease and is a great threat to rice production worldwide. Transmission of X. oryzae pv. oryzae from seed to seed is remain in enigma. In this study, seed transmission was investigated to detect and identified X. oryzae pv. oryzae in rice seeds of BR11 collected from the naturally BLB infected field and the transmission of X. oryzae pv. oryzae from seed to plant to seed during November, 2014 to November, 2015 at Seed Pathology Centre, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh. The results indicated the survival ability of X. oryzae pv. oryzae for one season to another for at least 10 months but the survivability of the bacterium decreased with the increasing of storage time. The transmission of X. oryzae pv. oryzae was carried out through transplanting of the seedlings raised from the infected seeds. X. oryzae pv. oryzae was then detected in the seeds harvested from the infected plants raised from the seedlings produced from the previously harvested BLB infected seeds. These results clearly indicated the transmission of X. oryzae pv. oryzae from seed to plant to seed carryover at least from one season to another.

Agarwood is highly prized products in perfumery world. Insect infested wood demands highier price than exported agarwood. A comparative analysis was made among the three categories of agarwood like white wood, screw injected and insect infested agarwood to evaluate the ether extract and total phenolic contents at Sylhet region in Bangladesh. We found the ether extract oil of white wood was 1.80%, Screw injected wood was 20.49% and insect infested wood was 11.078% and total phenolic contents were 2.55mg per g, 3.6mg per g and 2.97mg per g from white wood, screw injected wood and insect infested wood respectively.

BACKGROUND: Culture of seaweed is expanding globally due to wide range application of seaweeds including human consumption as nutritious food. Despite the availability of naturally occurring seaweeds, utilization is scarcely noticed in Bangladesh. Therefore, some value added seaweed food and functional food products were experimentally manufactured and those products were found to be promising for commercial production. Proximate composition and shelf-life determination by organoleptic evaluation were conducted on four value added seaweed food products; namely, seaweed jelly, soup, ice-cream, curd and two functional food products; namely, seaweed singara, samosa. METHODOLOGY: Crude protein, lipid, moisture and ash content of above mentioned food and functional foods items were analyzed according to standard procedure of AOAC, 2000. To study shelf life, two sets of sample; each set of sample included previously mentioned 4 value added seaweed food items and 2 value added seaweed functional food items stored both in ambient condition and in freezer at -18°C were investigated for 1 month. KEY FINDINGS : Crude protein content of seaweed jelly, soup, ice-cream and curd was 8.71%, 9.04%, 14.96% and 16.60%; lipid content was 6.76%, 12.67%, 10.33% and 1.10%; moisture content was 42.75%, 56.94%, 51.68% and 58.06%; ash content was 19.05%, 16.27%, 8.02% and 9.10%, respectively. Average proximate composition value of seaweed singara, samosa was found respectively as 9.80% and 10.01% crude protein, 6.88% and 6.17% lipid, 32.08% and 27.44% moisture, 13.20% and 10.01% ash. All value added seaweed food and functional food products kept open in ambient condition had a shelf life of not more than three days. Shelf life of seaweed food and functional foods in freezer was at least 1 month. CONCLUSION: Determination of optimum use of seaweeds in product development, spoilage mechanism , development of more new products, effect of these products on human health, seaweed culture technique etc. should be investigated.
