Pebrinedisease found to be highly virulent and harm the larval and cocoon characters of tropical tasar silkworm Antheraeamylitta Drury (Daba TV).Therefore an attempt has been made to evaluate the effect of 2% bleaching powder solution in controlling the pebrine disease attained through secondary contamination by studying larval and cocoon characters. In comparison with the healthy control (T1 b...

Olyra saginata, new species, is described from the Kaladan [=Kolodyne] River system in Mizoram, northeast India. It differs from congeners in having the following unique combination of characters: interorbital distance 27.9-35.9% HL; 54-66 lateral-line pores; body depth at anus 10.5-12.0% SL; length of adipose-fin base 17.3-22.4% SL; adipose fin separate from upper principal caudal-fin rays; po...

Triplophysa daochengensis sp. nov. is described from the Daocheng River, a northern tributary of the Jinsha River in Sichuan Province, China. The new species can be distinguished from its congeners by the following characters: body smooth and scales absent; lateral line complete; caudal peduncle compressed, depth unchanging; head length equal to caudal-peduncle length; lower jaw shovel-shaped; ...

In order to study effects of nitrogen fertilization and cultivars on some of traits of different barley an experiment was conducted at Isfahan in 2012. The experimental was split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications. In this experiment, different levels of nitrogen in the main plots included four levels (0, 50, 100 and 150 N kg/ha (urea)) and barley cultivars inclu...

good perception of relation-sheep among plant morphological traits and resistance to fusarium head blight of wheat is quite effective to make a good success in plant breeding project. in this experiment this relation has been checked out. the morphological traits were included plant height, peduncle length and spike density. we used 28 spring wheat genotypes and 2 durum genotypes. there was sig...

Turcinoemacheilus himalaya, new species, is described from the Koshi and Gandaki River basins of Nepal. The new species is distinguished from its hypothesised congener, Turcinoemacheilus kosswigi, from the Euphrates, Tigris and Karoun basins of the Middle East, by the presence of small scales on the posterior half of its body (v. absence of all scales), its shorter caudal peduncle (caudal pedun...

in order to study the realationship between genetic diversity and different characteristics associated with grain yield in barley, 28 genotypes of barley cultivars contain seven cultivars and 21 hybrids were evaluated in randomized complete block (rcb) design with three replications. cultivars were valfajr, makuei, kavir, rayhan, gorgan, nusrat and nimroz. this study was carried out in research...
