Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers were used to study the genomic relationship among 11 members of Indian Rhizophoraceae represented by nine true mangroves and two non-mangrove species. The AFLP and RAPD bands were scored and analyzed for genetic similarities and cluster analysis was done which separated the 11 species studied into ...

Oils extracted from Cymbopogon citratus, Lantana camara, Artemisia camphorata, and Imperata cylindrica plants were used as potential insecticides against the rice weevil, Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae). The phytochemical composition of isolated oils was identified by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Oil contact toxicities evaluated adults S. oryzae. activities ac...

We analyzed almost complete 18S rDNA sequences of 10 bovine Eimeria species, namely Eimeria alabamensis, E. auburnensis, E. bovis, E. bukidnonensis, E. canadensis, E. cylindrica, E. ellipsoidalis, E. subspherica, E. wyomingensis and E. zuernii. Although these sequences showed intraspecific variation in 8 species, the sequences of each species were clustered in monophyletic groups in all species...

Luffa cylindrica belongs to the family cucurbitaceae is an economically important plant widely grown for its vegetable purpose,but the plant as a whole is able to cure many of the skin diseases,thus possess medicinal importance also. In the present study callus multiplication of the luffa from the leaf explant have been investigated with different concentrations of auxin (NAA) with cytokinine (...

Reduction of nitrite by cell-free preparations of Anabaena cylindrica in the dark has been investigated. Nitrite-reducing activity was recovered in a supernatant fraction. The nitrite reductase system was partially purified by column chromatography on Sephadex G-75. NADPH could serve as an H-donor. NADH was completely inactive. The reduction required ferredoxin which mediated the transfer of el...
