To investigate the acid sulfate soil-adapting strategies of South Kalimantan local rice varieties, their rhizoplane pH was preliminarily examined using a glass-made micro-electrode. Although raw acid-sulfate soils in paddocks in South Kalimantan were generally pH 3.5-4.5 and sometimes pH 2.5, pH values of the rhizoplane of living roots directly measured by the microelectrode always converged to...

Rice bran is a by-product of brown rice milling process. The aim this study was to determine the effect fermentation on changes total phenolic content, antioxidant activity, and bioactive components in with combination defatting treatment. Coloured (white, red, black) used study. Total content (TPC) activity were analysed Folin-Ciocalteau DPPH radical scavenging (RSA) method, respectively. Bioa...

Flavonoids play an important role in the grain color and flavor of rice. Since their characterization in maize, the flavonoid biosynthetic genes have been extensively studied in grape, Arabidopsis, and Petunia. However, we are still a long way from understanding the molecular features and mechanisms underlying the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway. The present study was undertaken to understand th...

While writing a report on ' The present u of naturalistic measures in the control malariaHackett, Russell, Scharff and Sen* White (1938) found that there was a difference of opinion among themselves as to the effect rotting stubble in water in rice fields after re^F ing. Therefore, Senior White asked all t I malaria inspectors working under him, includi ? the present writer, to select a typical...

Variability in the cultivated germplasm for economic traits such as resistance to rice tungro virus, sheathblight, yellow stem borer, drought and salt tolerance is limited. This necessitated search for the genes in secondary and tertiary gene pool of genus Oryza. Fortunately, wild species are an important reservoir ofuseful genes for resistance to major disease, pest and tolerance t...
