Biotechnological approaches for propagation and prospecting of important medicinal plants from Indian Thar Desert
The “Thar Desert” region of Rajasthan in north-west India is one of the most inhospitable landscapes on earth. The desert has sparse vegetation and the ground surface is exposed to sun, atmosphere and associated physical forces. Ever increasing human and livestock population have put heavy demands for plant products, resulting in over exploitation of well adapted plants. Plants like species of ...
متن کاملSurvival and establishment of exotic plant species in saline areas of Indian Thar Desert by application of mycorrhizal technology
Mycorrhizal technology was applied for reclamation of saline wasteland of Indian Thar Desert. For this purpose an exotic tree species Acacia colie an endemic legume of Australia was selected. Studies revealed increased biomass production and nutrient uptake of Acacia collie by native AM fungi. Different AM fungi showed their variation towards response to this tree species. However, AM fungi res...
متن کاملIndigenous and Modern Scientific Strategies for Characterization, Conservation and Sustainable Utilization of Bio-resources of the Indian Thar Desert
The densely populated Indian Thar Desert, which extends from India to Pakistan, is the 18th largest in the world. Diurnal variation in temperature, erratic precipitation, poor soil texture, and saline tracts are serious constraints for the livelihood of humans. The Indian Thar Desert also has significant natural resources that can be harnessed to mitigate constraints and to support life of its ...
متن کاملBackground radiation, people and the environment
All living organisms are exposed to ionizing radiation comprising cosmic rays coming from outer space, terrestrial nuclides occurring in the earth’s crust, building materials, air, water and foods and in the human body itself. The exposures are constant and uniform for all individuals everywhere including the dose from ingestion of 40K in food. Cosmic rays are, more intense at higher alt...
متن کاملChemical, microphysical, and radiative effects of Indian Ocean aerosols
[1] Extensive and long-term multistation measurements of aerosol properties and radiative fluxes were carried out in the haze plume off the South Asian continent. These experiments are carried out at Kaashidhoo Climate Observatory (KCO) (4.95 N, 73.5 E), Minicoy (8.5 N, 73.0 E), and Trivandrum (8.5 N, 77.0 E). In addition, the top of the atmosphere fluxes were measured simultaneously by the CER...
