Rainfed lowland rice ecosystem is affected not only by water deficit but also by excess water leading from partial to complete submergence. Although the rice plant is well adapted to aquatic environment, it is unable to survive if completely submerged in water for several weeks. Damage to rice plants due to excess water has been advocated to occur during submergence and also on entry of oxygen ...

rice sheath blight disease caused by rhizoctonia solani ag1- ia is the secondeconomically important disease of the crop in most rice- growing regions of the world,including northern of iran. the disease is mainly controlled through application of fungicides.the present study was performed to identify the candidate cultivar (cultivars) as source ofresistance to the pathogen in rice field conditi...

Topical therapy is one of the foundations of a dermatologist’s therapeutic armamentarium as it is used either for symptomatic relief, control, or cure of the underlying disease. Emollients provide symptomatic relief in xerotic skin diseases like ichthyoses, xeroderma, disorders of keratinization, and atopic dermatitis. They act by softening the stratum corneum by increasing its hydration. Curre...

During September to October 2022 a blight disease was observed on the leaves and panicles of rice cv. Swarna Sub-1, with an incidence 40–50%, in paddy fields around village Ambabhona (21°34'34.3“N 83°28'08.2”E) Bargarh district, Odisha, India. Lesions appeared first as water-soaked spots, yellow or brownish colour, eventually become necrotic causing leaf (Figures 1, 2). Grains were also affecte...

Highest and lowest plant height at harvest was recorded with application of 0.08% Zn and in control treatment, respectively. Longest and shortest roots were recorded in the plots treated with 0.08% Zn and control respectively. Zn treatment of 0.04% produced maximum lentil seed whereas lowest was recorded under control. India is world largest homeland of vegetarian population and world leader in...

This thesis makes fundamental computational and statistical advances in testing and estimation, making critical progress in theory and application of classical statistical methods like classification, regression and hypothesis testing, and understanding the relationships between them. Our work connects multiple fields in often counter-intuitive and surprising ways, leading to new theory, new al...
