Investigation on diversity of stomata from 13 species of family Euphorbiaceae has been carried out. Characters like type of stomata, position of stomata, presence/absence of ledge, and density both abaxial and adaxial leaf surface were examined. Stomata characters in the family were found quite diverse in this study. Monophyletic nature of Euphorbiaceae has been proved in this study on the basi...

Analysis of quantitative genetics in natural populations has been hindered by computational and methodological problems in statistical analysis. We developed and validated a jackknife procedure to test for existence of broad sense heritabilities and dominance or maternal effects influencing quantitative characters in Impatiens capensis. Early life cycle characters showed evidence of dominance a...

We interpret biological motion trajectories as composed of sequences of sub-blocks or motion primitives. Such primitives, together with the information, when they occur during a motion, provide a compact representation of movement. We present a two-layer model for movement generation, where the higher level consists of a number of spiking neurons that trigger motion primitives in the lower leve...

The research work was executed Research cum Instructional Farm, Genetics and Plant Breeding department of IGKV Raipur (C.G.) during kharif 2021. material under comprised 50 rice germplasm lines including two checks namely Mahamaya Rajeshwari, which were tested in RBD with replications. observation investigation recorded for total eight characters viz. Days to 50% flowering, Number tillers per p...

The complex interactions between social learning and biological change are key to understanding the human species and its origins. Yet paleoanthropological models often focus only on the evolution of the human genome and physical characters, while behavior is treated as an epiphenomenon of biological evolution. We present the results of a series of experiments that use computational models, par...
