Based on both morphological and physiological traits, Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) can be classified into two distinct subspecies, indica and japonica. To better understand the differences between the two subspecies, a proteomic approach was used to profile proteins present in the yellow seedling stage of 10 indica and 10 japonica rice varieties. We report the discovery of a new prot...

Reproductive barriers are thought to play an important role in the processes of speciation and differentiation. Asian rice cultivars, Oryza sativa, can be classified into two main types, Japonica and Indica, on the basis of several characteristics. The fertility of Japonica-Indica hybrids differs from one cross to another. Many genes involved in reproductive barriers (hybrid sterility, hybrid w...

The molluscicidal activity of Punica granatum Linn. (Punicaceae) and Canna indica Linn. (Cannaceae) against the snail Lymnaea acuminata was studied. The molluscicidal activity of P. granatum bark and C. indica root was found to be both time and dose dependent. The toxicity of P. granatum bark was more pronounced than that of C. indica. The 24 h LC(50) of the column-purified root of C. indica wa...

The amount of phosphorus (P) conventionally recommended and applied to container nursery crops commonly exceeds plant requirements, resulting in unused P leaching from containers potentially contributing surface water impairment. An experiment was replicated the Middle Atlantic Coastal Plain (MACP) Ridge Valley ecoregions Virginia compare effect a low-P controlled-release fertilizer (CRF, 0.9% ...

Includes 3 species, namely Plumbago indica P. Plumbago indica Plumbaginaceae is a perennial herb, commonly cultivated. Research project indicated that P. indica roots are indeed rich in. Nisha Sharma and Purshotam Kaushik. The present review deals with chemical compounds, medicinal.The aerial part of Plumbago indica L. family: Plumbaginaceae was studied to fix. Screening process of Plumbago ind...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of ethanolic, ethyl acetate and hexane extracts of Indian medicinal plants Azadirachta indica and Acalypha indica leaves against dermatophytes (60 isolates of Trichophyton rubrum, 22 isolates of Trichophyton mentagrophytes, 9 isolates of Microsporum gypseum and 9 isolates of Trichophyton tonsurans). Of the three extracts used the ethanolic and eth...

Tilletia indica causes the disease Karnal bunt in wheat. The disease is under international quarantine regulations. Comparative mitochondrial (mt) genome analysis of T. indica (KX394364 and DQ993184) and T. walkeri (EF536375) has found 325 to 328 SNPs, 57 to 60 short InDels (from 1 to 13 nt), two InDels (30 and 61 nt) and five (>200 nt) presence/absence variations (PAVs) between the two species...

The mutualistic symbiont Piriformospora indica exhibits a great potential in agriculture. The interaction between P. indica and Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris cv. Chinensis) results in growth and biomass promotion of the host plant and in particular in root hair development. The resulting highly bushy root phenotype of colonized Chinese cabbage seedlings differs substantially from reports...

osting by E C BY-NCAbstract Azadirachta indica is widely used in traditional medicine to treat diabetes and hypertension. In the present study A. indica-yogurt was prepared and refrigerated up to 28 days. pH of A. indica-yogurt was lower whereas total titratable acid (TTA) was higher than plain-yogurt during storage. The total phenolic content (TPC) and antioxidant capacity increased during sto...
