The research works embodied in this thesis were aimed to explore the extent of genetic variation among the selected potato genotypes for important agronomic and nutritional quality characters and their possible exploitation ...

Plant pathogenic fungus Rhizoctonia oryzae-sativae (teleomorph Ceratbasidium oryzae-sativae) caused aggregate sheath spot disease of rice. The disease is considered as minor on rice. However, in rice–wheat/potato cropping ...

The inheritance of male sterility and comparative study of the development of male sterile and male fertile anthers of Brassica were carried out. Male sterility in one family of Brassica Campestris Var. Toria and a family ...

An experiment was conducted to study the effect of sowing times on growth and yield of blackgram (Phaseolus mungo L. ). Four varieties of blackgram viz., BARIMASH-1, BARIMASH-2, BARIMASH-3 and LOCAL VARIETY B-10 were used ...

The whole work of the present investigation was carried out under two separate parts, such as triple test cross and correlation, path-coefficient and selection index. Under two parts the eight yield and yield contributing ...

Genetic diversity in sugarcane was investigated using 16 quantitative, 37 qualitative morphological traits and 23 microsatellite markers. Results showed that a moderate level of genetic diversity was present in 51 evaluated ...

The AP2/EREBP (Ethylene Responsive Element Binding Protein) genes play various roles in developmental processes and in stress-related responses in plants. We identified 163 AP2/EREBP genes in rice. We analyzed gene structures, ...

Present investigation was under taken with a view to study and evaluates the extent of genetic variation present among 12 selected tea genotypes. This study also includes the analyses of major biochemical and nutritional ...

Drought is one of the majors constrains to the productivity of rice in many parts of the world, particularly in South and South East Asia. Among the natural disaster drought is a common phenomenon in different cropping ...

The water chestnut is an annual aquatic minor fruit and available grown in everywhere in watery bog place in Bangladesh. Water chestnut has been considered as a minor crop because of its low yield performance and lack of ...
