Indian jujube leaves (Ziziphus mauritiana Lamk) have various potential biological activity. Previous studies proven that ethanol extracted from (Z. had analgesic This study aimed to determine the total flavonoid content and activity of ethyl acetate fraction extract. Tested was prepared by maceration using as solvent followed fractionation acetate. Identification active compounds performed colo...

This study was carried out to determine effects of different durations (20, 40, 60 days and control) of cold stratification treatments on seed germination and to overcome dormancy in seeds of twelve different drought tolerant plants. The species used in this study were Arbutus andrachne L., Cistus creticus L., Colutea armena Bois. Huet., Cotinus coggygria Scop., Cotoneaster numullaria Fisch. an...

Phylogenetic analysis, using 1455 bp of recent mtDNA (cytochrome b 714 bp, 12S rRNA 376 bp) and nuclear (c-mos 365 bp) sequence from 42 species and 33 genera of Scincidae, confirms Leiolopisma telfairii, now confined to Round island off Mauritius, is a member of the mainly Australasian Eugongylus group of the Lygosominae. Ancient mtDNA (cytochrome b 307 bp, 12S rRNA 376 bp) was also extracted f...

Drosophila mauritiana is an Indian Ocean island endemic species that diverged from its two sister species, Drosophila simulans and Drosophila sechellia, approximately 240,000 years ago. Multiple forms of incomplete reproductive isolation have evolved among these species, including sexual, gametic, ecological, and intrinsic postzygotic barriers, with crosses among all three species conforming to...

In this paper we study the maximum number of users that each base station can support on a path-loss channel. We analyzed the desired user's signal quality in a single cell CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) system in the presence of MAI(Multiple Access Interference). Power control techniques attempt to assure that all signals are received with equal power levels. Since the algorithm is desig...

The greatest threat in India is the menace of skewed sex ratio. The down sex ratio leads to many crimes such as illegal trafficking of women, sexual assaults, polygamy and dehumanization of society. The objective was to study the awareness regarding female feticide in blocks Beri of district Jhajjar, Haryana. The study was carried out in the rural block Beri (District Jhajjar, Haryana). The Ber...

Introduction Jujube (Ziziphus mauritiana Lam.) tree is subjected to attack by different fungal pathogens causing various diseases. In India, powdery mildew (Oidium sp.) causes defoliation and fruit-drop. Sooty mold (Cladosporium zizyphi) causes leaves to fall. Leaf spot results from infection by Cercospora spp. and Isariopsis indica var. zizyphi. Leaf rust, caused by Phakopsora zizyphi-vulgaris...

A study was undertaken to analyses the heritability, correlation and path co-efficient for growth and fruit characters in twenty ber (Ziziphus mauritiana Lam) genotypes grown at Fruit Research Farm under Horticulture Research Centre, BARI during January to June 2006. The highest range of variation was recorded in fruit weight (6.63-44.72 g), followed by yield per plant (14.88 64.99 kg), stone w...
