A pot culture experiment was conducted on Karaikal soil series (Vertic Ustropept) to study the response of rice genotypes boron addition and screening efficient using stress indices. Ten were tested at two (0, 2 mg kg-1) level boron. The result revealed that highest grain yield (88.40 g pot-1) straw (114.7 pot-1), maximum uptake (2192.3 µg (3291.9 recorded with application 2.0 kg-1. Amongst gen...

BACKGROUND Faba bean is an important starch-based protein crop produced worldwide. Soil acidity and aluminium toxicity are major abiotic stresses affecting its production, so in regions where soil acidity is a problem, there is a gap between the potential and actual productivity of the crop. Hence, we set out to evaluate acidity and aluminium tolerance in a range of faba bean germplasm using so...

Rhizodegradation is one of the best methods for effective removal dangerous polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons pollutants from soil. This operative due to high persistent, non-bioavailability nature PAHs and combined, sequential reactions bacteria present in rhizosphere plants. We have conducted pot-culture method study degradation three compounds namely phenanthrene, anthracene pyrene artificial...

Using the field pot-culture and sample-analysis method, 54 weed species belonging to 20 families and 31 weed species belonging to 17 families were systematically examined as to whether they can exclude the uptake of heavy metals. After a systematic identification, it was determined that Oenothera biennis and Commelina communis were Cd-excluders and Taraxacum mongolicum was a Zn-excluder. O. bie...

A series of novel 2,4-disubstituted-7-methyl-1,1,3-trioxo-2H,4H-pyrazolo[4,5-e][1,2,4]thiadiazines (PTDs) was prepared starting from a ring of pyrazolo[4,5-e][1,2,4]thiadiazine nuclei with two different alkyl halides obtained by a facile one-pot reaction. The structures of all synthesized compounds were confirmed by 1H- and 13C-NMR, infrared spectra (IR), and mass spectra ...

An investigation was carried out with the heavy metal Cobalt and legume plant soybean, in order to test the heavy metal accumulating ability of soybean. Cobalt was given to Soybean (Glycine max) plants in pot culture by soil drenching method. The accumulation and uptake of cobalt was tested from root, stem and leaves of treated plants. The results showed higher concentration (Co level (100-200 ...
