The indiscriminate use of wireless technologies, particularly of cell phones, has increased the health risks among living organisms including plants. We investigated the impact of cell phone electromagentic field (EMF) radiations (power density, 8.55 microW cm(-2)) on germination, early growth, proteins and carbohydrate contents, and activities of some enzymes in Vigna radiata. Cell phone EMF r...

Purpose: Intercropping of baby corn (Zea mays L.) with pulse legumes might improve production efficiency and increase profitability. The objectives this study were to compare growth, yield nitrogen uptake in intercropping systems determine income from the systems.Research Method: Four treatments consisting alone, mungbean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek), soybean (Glycine max) crawling cowpea unqui...

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of various processing treatments (soaking, pressure cooking and germination) on two newly developed cultivars of each green gram (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilezek) and black gram (Vigna mungo (L.) Hepper). The present study revealed higher nutrient content in black gram than in green gram. The antinutritional factors were found to be higher in black gr...
