Cercospora leaf spots is one of the major foliar diseases urdbean (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper) causing a considerable yield loss. Screening germplasm and induction mutation has not yielded any source resistance. Hence, an experiment was conducted at research farm CSKHPKV Palampur, Himachal Pradesh during 2017–21 for introgression disease resistance in urdbean. A total 45 interspecific cross combin...

A brief study to analyze oxidative stress and antioxidant response of cadmium stress was carried out. The plant chosen Vigna radiata (var. SML-668) was hydroponically grown in 0, 50μM, 100μM and 150μM, cadmium chloride. The roots were taken from hydroponic culture at 6 days of growth for various enzymatic and metabolic estimations. Among the antioxidant enzymes, root catalase and ascorbate pero...

In the present investigation, 15 genotypes were studied for morphological traits at Sorghum Research Station, Vasantrao Naik Marathwada Krishi Vidyapith, Parbhani during kharif 2021-2022 and observations taken on 20th, 40th, 60th DAS harvesting stage.

LEA (late embryogenesis abundant) proteins are associated with tolerance to water stress resulting from desiccation and cold shock. Although various functions have been proposed to LEA proteins, their precise role is not fully defined. In silico analysis of the amino acid sequence of two LEA proteins (early methionine-labeled Vigna, EMV) from the tropical legume crop, Vigna radiata identified a...
