The world is facing an explosive increase in the incidence of diabetes mellitus and cost-effective complementary therapies are needed. The effects of Eugenia jambolana, a household remedy for diabetes, were studied. Streptozotocin diabetic female albino Wistar rats weighing 150-200 g (N = 6) were fed E. jambolana seed powder (250, 500 or 1000 mg/kg) for 15 days. Diabetic rats fed 500 and 1000 m...

Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 62(5): 945–952. Development of new bread wheat cultivars needs effi cient tools to monitor trait association in a breeding program. This investigation was aimed to charact...

The current investigation was undertaken with eighteen elite rice genotypes to study the genetic diversity, variability, heritability and advance for yield attributing traits. ANOVA revealed significant variability among traits studied. 1000 seed weight is having highest phenotypic coeffcient variation genotypic (24.882 & 24.835) followed by grain per plant (20.315 19.523 respectively). Her...

In these studies, the physical and physiological seed properties seedling's vigour in five ZP maize hybrids (ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, ZP4 ZP5) were investigated. Hybrid was divided into small (SF) large fractions (LF) The hybrid combination size did not significantly (p ≥ 0.05) affect germination. Width, thickness, length, weight, dead seeds, abnormal seedling, stem root growth fresh seedling weight infl...

in order to study the effects of cropping systems and mulch application in relay intercropped styrian pumpkin (cucurbita pepo l.) with chickpea (cicer arietinum l.), a field experiment was conducted as factorial layout based on a randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station, college of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, during growing s...

Fusarium (Fusarium L) disease of soybean in the cultivation grain causes a loss 30-60% yield and serious damage to level protein fat content grain. With this mind, paper discusses development, prevalence, 1000-grain weight fungal diseases effectiveness seed treatments control.

The experiment was carried out with 32 genotypes of Brassica rapa including two commercially cultivated varieties as checks to study their mean, range, cv (%) correlation co-efficient, and path co-efficient considering 10 different morphological characters at the experimental farm of SAU, Dhaka during November 2009 to February 2010. Significant variation was observed among all the genotypes for...
