Powdery mildew, caused by Podosphaera pannosa (Wallr.: Fr.) de Bary (Syn. Sphaerotheca pannosa var rosae (Wallr.: Ex Fr.) Lev.), is one of the most important fungal diseases in roses. These are obligate parasites and considered as one of the most distributed and destructive groups of plant pathogens. The symptoms appear on leaves, shoots, buds, thorns, peduncles and flowers as powdery, whitish growth (mycelium, conidiophores and spores) of the mildew fungus. Plants can be severely stunted if they are heavily infected early in the growing season. The disease has been managed mainly by chemical fungicides but increasing public concern over the use of fungicides has made the development of biological control for powdery mildew highly desirable. Recent reports have highlighted the potential of biological control as an alternative strategy for disease management. Several biological control methods such as use of microbial antagonists (fungi, bacterial, yeast and yeast like organisms), botanicals and bioproducts have been found effective against rose powdery mildew fungi. The main objective of this review paper is to summarize the data on the microbial antagonists, bioproducts (anhydrous milk products, oils and compost extracts) and botanicals which have been reported effective for the better management of this plant pathogen.Keywords

The cognitive profile in schizophrenia is characterized by deficits across several domains, notably attention, memory and executive functions. The aspects of executive functions that are compromised in schizophrenia are the capacities for volitional activity, forward planning and self regulation. Therefore, cognitive enhancement interventions programs have been achieving importance and interest because they may provide direct benefits to patients with executive dysfunctions (Wykes et al., 2011). To see the effect of executive function rehabilitaton training on patients with schizophrenia. By using purposive sampling technique, 10 patients of schizophrenia were chosen according to ICD 10 DCR criteria and were divided randomly into two groups, experimental group and control group. Executive functioning was assessed among all the participants of experimental group as well as control group by using WCST. After baseline assessment, executive function rehabilitation training was provided to the experimental group using executive function module of Brainwave R series and after the training both the groups were assessed by using WCST. The patients with schizophrenia demonstrated improvement in various measures of WCST namely perseverative errors, percent perseverative errors, non perseverative errors, percent non perseverative errors, conceptual level responses, percent conceptual level responses and number of categories completed after they underwent executive function rehabilitation training.Keywords

A field experiment was conducted in Randomized Block Design with three replications of eight treatments during Kharif season 2014 at Chirori university research centre, SardarVallabhbhai Patel University of Agriculture and Technology, Meerut (U.P.) to evaluate the effect of some novel insecticides against insect pests of paddy. Efficacy of seven insecticides viz.,Pymetrozine 50% WG (GSP sample) @ 250, 300 and 400 g/ha, Pymetrozine 50% WG (market sample) @ 300 g/ha, Imidacloprid 17.8% SL @ 125 ml/ha and Fipronil 5% SC@ 1500 ml/hatasted against green leaf hopper (Nephotettixvirescens), Brown plant hopper (Nilaparvatalugens) and White backed plant hopper (Sogatellafurcifera). The results of the experiment showed that Pymetrozine 50% WG (GSP sample) @ 300 and 400 g/ha and Pymetrozine 50% WG (Market sample) @ 300 g/ha effectively controlled BPH, GLH and WBPH pests followed by Imidacloprid 17.8% SL @ 125 ml/ha and Fipronil 5% SC @ 1500 ml/ha. No phytotoxicity symptoms on paddy crop and no adverse effect on natural enemies were recorded due to application of treatments. Since Pymetrozine 50% WG @ 300 g/ha was equally effective to 400 g/ha dose.Keywords

An experiment was conducted to evaluate the performance and characterize plant growth behaviour, light profile and soil fertility status of seventeen different trees (12 years old). The study indicated higher biomass production potential of Gmelina arborea, Dalbergia sissoo and Leucaena leucocephala. Higher photosynthetically active radiation value below tree canopy indicates compatibility of trees with a majority of agricultural crops. In the present study, a significant increase in pH and decrease in EC of trees were observed. The significant reduction in nutrients in different trees indicated a need for replenishment of nutrients in soil for maintaining soil fertility in agroforestry systems on long-term basis.Keywords

Menopause is one of the most crucial phase of women’s life and can be influenced by various socio demographical factors including age, educational status, age at menarche, smoking status etc. It is the permanent cessation of menstruation for at least 12 consecutive months. Women face lots of menopausal problems (physical, psychological, urogenital etc.) during postmenopausal phase. Thus, the present study mainly focuses on menopausal problems among postmenopausal women in selected rural and urban areas of Jagadhri, YamunaNagar, Haryana. Objectives: To assess the menopausal problems among postmenopausal women and to find out the association between menopausal problems and demographic variables. Materials and Methods: A descriptive study design was adopted for the current study. The study was conducted at selected rural and urban areas at Jagadhri, Yamuna Nagar, Haryana. The non-probability convenient sampling technique was used. 100 menopausal women residing in selected rural and urban areas were recruited for the study. The study includedwomen who have attained menopause, who understand Hindi, English and designated language, who are residents of rural and urban areas of Jagadhri, Yamuna Nagar and the study excluded women who are not willing to participate and having any major medical disorder. Self-structured rating scale was used to assess the menopausal problems. Data was analyzed by using SPSS version 16. Results: The study findings show that, majority (59%) of respondents had mild menopausal problems, 41% had moderate menopausal problems and none of woman had severe menopausal problems. It is found that there is significant association between menopause attained and menopausal problems of respondents at 0.05 levels with chi square values (13.394) and p-value (0.000). Conclusion: It is concluded that most of the women were having mild menopausal problems. There is need to provide nursing education, health education programme and awareness to handle the menopausal problems and to ease the sufferings of women.Keywords

The COVID-19 pandemic has sparked a global catastrophe that has had a detrimental impact on people’s daily lives. Children have suffered as a result of being confined to their homes constantly. Preschoolers in particular are quite active and like attending school and participating in a variety of extracurricular activities. But, because of the corona pandemic lockdown, they are limited to engaging in play and other activities with their parents and siblings. This qualitative study was conducted to find the changes that parents of preschool children felt in their children’s behavior and how they were handling them during this trying time of being confined at home. The objectives of the study were to explore that the preschool children being at home during the time of the pandemic how got changed in their behavior as well as the changes in their routine life, along with this it was also tried to document the ways in which parents are managing them during this pandemic. Interviews were conducted through audio and video calls. The responses were then analysed thematically. The main conclusions emphasised the significance of early childhood education for the development of children’s manners. Young children’s behaviour is greatly influenced by preschools in their daily lives. The kids’ increasing usage of digital media is a result of their extended home absence from school, and their increased hostility is a result of their lack of peers and low social development setting.Keywords
