In order to find out the performance of castor under decontaminant treated heavy metal polluted soils, an experiment was conducted at Students Farm, College Agriculture, PJTSAU, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad, during kharif 2016 study in soil treatments various decontaminants (various dosages phosphorus as well as, quick lime). The dry matter before flowering, and stalk yield harvest varied from 429 ...

This study was conducted to investigate the photoperiodic flowering response of Elsholtzia angustifolia. Plants were grown under 9/15 h (day/night) (short day, SD), 16/8 (long LD), and night interruption (NI, 4 around midnight) conditions. Supplemental lighting with a light intensity µmol·m-2·s-1 applied for LD NI treatments. continuous SD conditions developed first floral bud at 5 weeks after ...

This study was conducted to assessthe preventive effect of aqueous extract of Berberis integerrima Bge. root (AEBIR) on liver damage and oxidative stress induced by diabetes mellitus in rats. Forty male rats were divided into 5 groups as follows: 1- normal (N); 2- normal + barberry (N+B) (they received barberry root extract for 6 weeks); 3- diabetic (D) (they received Streptozotocin (STZ), 65 m...

One of the most important practices in flue-cured tobacco farming is topping and sucker control at the right time. Topping cause's development and root growth, drought tolerance, reduce deployment pests, increased synthesis of nicotine. This study was conducted in randomized complete block design (RCBD) with 10 treatments in 3 replications over two years (2008-2009) at Tirtash research and educ...

A number of Eucalyptus species exhibit precocious flowering, flowering within a year of germination and often while still exhibiting juvenile foliage. To understand the nature of precocious flowering in Eucalyptus occidentalis, partial homologues of the inflorescence meristem identity gene TERMINAL FLOWER1 and of the floral meristem identity genes LEAFY and APETALA1 (EOTFL1, EOLFY and EOAP1, re...

Excess weight gain during pregnancy and post-partum weight retention are risk factors for obesity. While many studies report average weight retained from pregnancy is only 0.5–3.0 kg; between 14 and 20% of women are 5 kg heavier at 6–18 months post-partum than they were before pregnancy. Among normal-weight women, lactation usually promotes weight loss to a moderate extent, but not among those ...

There is evidence that inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is activated at the acute phase of diabetes. We examined if selective inhibition of iNOS by 1400W (N-3-aminomethyl-benzyl-acetamidine) increases vascular response to noradrenaline in rats with streptozotocin (60 mg/kg i.v.)-induced diabetes for a duration of 3 weeks. The effects of noradrenaline on mean arterial pressure (MAP; 6, 16,...
