Einkorn (Triticum monococcum L.) is A-genome diploid wheat that has a potential to become a useful model for understanding the biology and genomics in Triticeae. Unfortunately, the application of modern technologies such as genetic engineering, RNAi-based gene silencing and genome editing is not available for einkorn as there is no efficient in vitro tissue culture and plant regeneration system...

Sweet cherry ( Prunus avium L.) is a valuable fruit crop worldwide. Farmers’ incomes are closely related to quantity and quality, yet these can be highly variable across years. As part of broader project for optimizing set quality in sweet cherries, this study was conducted evaluate the potential various plant growth regulators (PGRs) improving quality. Cytokinins, gibberellins, auxin, polyamin...

The kiwifruit [Actinidia deliciosa (A. Chev.) C.F. Liang & A.R. Ferguson] has attained significant importance for commercial cultivation in the mid-Himalayan region of Indian subcontinent during last three decades. fruit quality matching international standards remained a concern. Keeping mind bio-stimulatory effects seaweed extract, marine bioactive component horticultural crops, current s...

Plant growth regulator’s plays a very important role in Kinnow production. There are different type of PGR’s that includes GA3, NAA, CPPU and Ethyl which when applied on kinnow performs well give good results such as high quality, yield long shelf life the fruit. regulators (PGRs) known for having significant impact fruit retention. hormones involved physiological functions, developmental aspec...
