Weeds in citrus orchards are a major problem in cultivation, since weeds compete with the main tree unit for water, nutrients and also interfere with cultural practices. The competition from weeds to the main citrus tree unit is more damaging when the trees are young because these weeds slow down the tree growth and increase their susceptibility to insect and disease damage. As the tree grows older, the tree canopy shades the part of orchard floor and reduce weed growth.- Fenugreek Alkaloids:A Medicinal Commodity

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) commonly known as methi, is an annual herb that belongs to the Fabaceae family. It’s one among the prominent spices utilized in cookery. The leaves and seeds of fenugreek are also utilised in medicative applications and is one among the oldest practices of human history. Fenugreek is native to the eastern Mediterranean countries. It is cultivated in Africa, India, China, Morocco, Egypt and rarely in England. India is amongst the leading producers of methi in the world. Seeds are sown directly. The plant attains a height of 30-80 cm. The leaves are trifoliate and flowers are white that appear in early summer. They develop into long, slender brownish-yellow pods containing the brown seeds. The seeds are collected during the autumn. Best known for presence of pungent aromatic compounds in their seeds, methi provides colour, flavour and aroma to food. It is orally consumed as a leafy vegetable. It has been used as a medicinal plant since more than 4000 years in various parts of world. Because of this reason, it is known as the oldest medicinal plant in the history of human race.References

This study investigates the variation among Eucalyptus clones for incidence of gall wasp (Letocybe invasa) and relative changes in biochemical parameters. The three years, and replicated clonal trial involved 14 clones with monthly observations made on the gall wasp incidence. Significant variation was found among the clones, with maximum incidence being in F-316 and relatively the least incidence in C-413, PE-11, PE-14 and C-72. Gall wasp incidence gradually increased from January to April and declined thereafter. The total soluble sugars and phenol content in the infested leaves were found to increase by 49.2 and 22.8% respectively, whereas the protein content decreases (8.8% decrease).Keywords
