Abstract The coffee berry borer or CBB ( Hypothenemus hampei ) is a critical pest overgrowing on plants. This study was conducted to find out the intensity of infestation. method based field primarily from direct observations populations in sampling used systematically calculate population plantations, with sample 50 plants repeated three times for each type cropping pattern. In observation pla...

An experiment was carried out in the field laboratory of the Department of Crop Botany, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, to investigate the flowering pattern, floral and pod abscission under untreated and GABA (mixture of GA3 and Abscissic acid) treated soybean and their trends concern to yield. The variety of soybean PB-1 (Shohag) was used in the investigation. GABA at 0.5, 1.0 ...

Under osmotic stresses, proline accumulation is an important response of plants to these conditions. Proline is a compatible osmolyte which affects many cellular and molecular aspects of plant in both normal and stressful situations. Proline is shown to be involved in plant development in normal condition and in conferring resistance to plant under biotic and abiotic stresses. Therefore, many s...

Raspberries composed of various varieties, are popular ingredients of daily diet with highly distinguished biological activities. In this study, a comparative investigation was conducted on various chemical potential of methanol extracts from Rubus loganobaccus L. leaf parts cultured in greenhouse and open-field. Biochemical activity of the extracts obtained from the field cul...

Randomly amplified polymorphisms DNA (RAPD) has been widely used for authentication of plant species of medicinal importance. It is particularly useful in case of plants that are frequently substituted or adulterated with other species or varieties that are morphologically and/or phytochemically indistinguishable. In this study Hemidesmus indicus and its substitute plants were selected to devel...

Naturally established individuals of Plantago lanceolata with the inflorescence disease caused by Fusarium moniliforme var. subglutinans had more inflorescences and were more likely to be male-sterile than healthy plants. Half-sib families planted in the field varied in the percentage of diseased plants, the number of inflorescences per plant, the incidence of male-sterility, and the pattern of...
