ALMAS A GHEYAS PhD THESIS, INSTITUTE OF AQUACULTURE ii ABSTRACT Carp aquaculture in South Asia suffers severely from a lack of genetic management, which has eroded the genetic quality of both captive and wild populations. Use of molecular markers, especially microsatellites, has revolutionized genetic management of hatchery stocks through its ability to detect kinship between individuals and he...

Pests and diseases cause major production and economic losses in sugarcane cropping systems. The most effective form of long-term protection is through the use of resistant varieties. However, phenotyping sugarcane genotypes for pest and disease resistance is difficult and costly. Near-infrared reflectance (NIR) spectroscopy was investigated for its potential to predict the constitutive compone...

The information on principal component analysis (PCA) of kail sheep was generated using 16 different morphomteriacal traits. A total 368 Kail individuals were selected from ecological zone Azad Jammu Kahmir during the summer 2020. coefficient correlation between these traits found highly correlate with other morphometric this breed. PC extract two components and explaning variance 67 % 60% resp...

background public and private health sectors both play a crucial role in the health systems of low- and middleincome countries (lmics). the tuberculosis (tb) control strategy in india encourages the public sector to actively partner with private practitioners (pps) to improve the quality of front line service delivery. however, ensuring effective and sustainable involvement of pps constitutes a...

It was aimed to determine the cattle breed distribution, which were slaughtered in Edirne slaughterhouse between 2017-2021. Slaughterhouse data used as material for this study that accounted a number of 49,473 cattle. Cattle first grouped into pure breeds and cross-breeds, then, sub-genotypes cross-breeds determined. Twenty-one nineteen determined corresponding identified genotypes. Furthermore...

Doubled haploid (DH) technology has been used in breeding programs for several decades and is currently the method of choice in a number of crop species, including barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), maize (Zea mays L.), and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). In this study we investigated via computer simulation the benefit of using DHs compared with the conventional wheat bre...

Since kodo millet is a self-pollinated plant, it essential to understand the factors that influence length of flowering period, pollination behaviour, and seed set in order improve breeding programme effectiveness yield stability while also boosting productivity. Kodo flowers remain closed because they are cleistogamous nature. They have tiny florets. Emasculation artificial hybridization chall...
