The present study was conducted on 31 genotypes of spine gourd (Momordica dioica Roxb.) to estimate genetic variability, correlation and path coefficient analysis. The high estimates of PCV for the number of stem plant−1 (21.47) and moderate GCV and PCV observed for most of the traits which indicated the presence of adequate genetic variation among the genotypes. High heritability estimates coupled with high genetic advance for the number of fruits plant−1 and fruit yield confirmed that these traits are under the control of additive gene action. Fruit yield showed significant positive association with days to first flowering, number of stems plant−1, fruit weight and number of fruits plant−1. The higher association of number of fruits plant−1, number of stem plant−1, days to first flowering, fruit weight, fruit diameter and ovary diameter may be attributed to their direct effect on fruit yield. The study showed that the selection of traits with high positive significant association and high positive direct effect on fruit yield can help in improving yield. The similarity coefficient ranged from 0.33 to 0.94. In pair-wise comparison, the maximum similarity was obtained between genotype with a similarity index of 0.32 to 0.50, whereas genotype showed least similarity with other genotypes.

This study was aimed to assess the performance of various tomato genotypes under ventilated poly-house conditions. The study was conducted in Kumaun hills of Uttarakhand (India) during summer 2017. The study revealed the presence of high genotypic and high heritability for most economic traits viz., number of fruits plant−1, yield plant−1, ascorbic acid content and total antioxidant activities. The variety ‘VL-4’ proved superior over other varieties with respect to fruit length (5.43 cm), fruit width (5.27 cm), number of fruits plant−1 (51.67), average fruit weight (85.34 g) and fruit yield plant−1 (4.42 kg). Highest luminous (L*= 49.96), TSS (6.03oB), reducing sugar (1.99%) and total sugar (3.39%) were estimated in genotype ‘H-86’; whereas highest red colour (a*= 42.43) and total antioxidant activity (28.06 mMTE L−1) were found in hybrid ‘Dev’ and maximum yellow colour (b*= 48.8) in hybrid ‘Badshah’. The chroma (C*= 57.16), ascorbic acid (40.22 mg 100 g−1), non-reducing sugar (1.62%) and lowest hue angle (ho=38.83) were found maximum in hybrid ‘Shahanshah’. The maximum heritability (broad sense) estimates were noted for total sugar (100%) and non-reducing sugar (100%). The study depicted the scope of further improvement of these traits through selection procedure and these genotypes could be considered for further heterosis breeding programme for future improvement.

The aim of present study was to initiate preliminary work on heavy metal contamination in farm soil (contaminated with processed tannery effluent) and its potential influence on the development of metal resistance among N2fixing bacterium, Sinorhizobium sp. Contaminated plant samples were analyzed for various metals and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of metals was determined. Fenugreek (Trigonella sp.) plants revealed accumulation of these metals in root and leaves. Sinorhizobium sp. were isolated (25) from the root nodules of fenugreek-treated with processed tannery wastewater and characterized morpho-biochemically. All isolates were evaluated for their resistance against Cr3+, Cr6+, Cd2+, Cu2+, Zn2+ and Ni2+. The maximum MIC of 1600 μg mL−1 was noticed against Cr3+ in 64% isolates. Among all the isolates, the lowest MIC of 25 μg mL−1 was detected against Ni2+. Some metal resistant isolates were evaluated for their resistance against frequently used antibiotics viz., tetracycline, ampicillin, gentamycin, kanamycin, chloramphenicol and nalidixic acid. About 46% Sinorhizobium isolates were resistant to nalidixic acid whereas 26.6% showed resistance to ampicillin and kanamycin. The isolates demonstrated confluent growth upto a salt concentration of 3%; whereas isolates (SM17, SM24) tolerated 10% NaCl. Acidic pH eliminated almost all the test population and neutral pH had no suppressive effect on growth while majority were tolerant to pH 9.

The study evaluates the immunomodulatory effect of vitamin E against the side effect of synthetic food dye-induced oxidative damage and nephrotoxicity in male mice. Mice were divided into 4 groups viz., group 1 as control mice, group 2 received vitamin E (100 mg kg−1 bw), group 3 administered with carmoisine (250 mg kg−1 bw), and group 4 received carmoisine and vitamin E for 28 days. Nephrotoxicity induce in mice was assessed by observing the changes in levels of renal markers, and antioxidant status. Administration of vitamin E significantly restored the levels of renal functions (urea and creatinine), antioxidants status and immunological parameters (TNF-a, Cox-2, Bcl-2, CD95 and caspase 3). The prophylactic role of vitamin E against food dye-induced toxicity may be attributed to their antioxidant effects and free radical scavenging properties.
本研究评价了维生素E对合成食用色素引起的雄性小鼠氧化损伤和肾毒性的免疫调节作用。将小鼠分为4组，第1组为对照小鼠，第2组给予维生素E (100 mg kg - 1 bw)，第3组给予卡莫伊斯碱(250 mg kg - 1 bw)，第4组给予卡莫伊斯碱和维生素E，连续28 d。通过观察肾脏标志物水平和抗氧化状态的变化来评估小鼠的肾毒性。维生素E显著恢复了肾功能(尿素和肌酐)、抗氧化剂状态和免疫参数(TNF-a、Cox-2、Bcl-2、CD95和caspase 3)的水平。维生素E对食物染料引起的毒性的预防作用可能归因于它们的抗氧化作用和自由基清除特性。
